Determination of shear modulus of wood joists from torsion tests and relationship with modulus of elasticity (2018)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Khokhar, A., & Zhang, J. (2018, August). Determination of shear modulus of wood joists from torsion tests and relationship with modulus of elasticity. Presented at World Conference on Timber Engineering, Seoul, Republic of Korea

This paper presents the work that was undertaken to use torsion tests to evaluate the shear modulus of wood joists. The relationship of the shear modulus with modulus of elasticity, obtained from bending tests, was examined. Testing standard EN408 h...

Over the last decade the classical Chorin–Témam projection method has been utilized to address fluid- structure interaction in a semi-implicit manner. In previous studies the fluid projection step is fully coupled with the structural motion due to th...

In this paper the cell-based smoothed finite element method (CS-FEM) is introduced into two mainstream aspects of computational fluid dynamics: incompressible flows and fluid–structure interaction (FSI). The emphasis is placed on the fluid gradient s...

The end effect plays an important role in determining where the rotation measuring gauges should be located in a torsion test. A thorough review on the impact of end effect in a torsion test has been conducted, followed by an experimental validation....
