We recently published a paper titled "Transverse load redistribution and effective shear width in reinforced concrete slabs" in the journal Heron. Heron is a free, open access journal, managed and organized by volunteers of Delft University of Technology and TNO.The…
This year, I was author and co-author of three papers at SEMC 2016, the conference on Structural Engineering, Mechanics and Computation in Cape Town, South Africa. While I did not have the chance to travel, my students Mr. Valdivieso and…
We recently published a paper in Structure and Infrastructure Engineering about the collapse test on the Ruytenschildt Bridge and the implications for the flexural assessment of reinforced concrete slab bridges. The abstract of the paper is as follows:A large number…
We recently published a paper about the probabilistic analysis of the failure mode of the Ruytenschildt Bridge in Engineering Structures. You can download the paper for free for a month before it goes in hiding behind a paywall.The abstract is…
We recently published a paper on the field and laboratory testing of the Ruytenschildt Bridge. This bridge was tested to failure in two spans, and then beams sawn from the bridge were tested in the lab to study the behavior…
We've recently published a paper in the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Bridge Engineering. You can find this paper online. The abstract is as follows:Reinforced concrete short-span solid-slab bridges are used to compare Dutch and North American…
My colleagues and I recently published a paper in Beton- und Stahlbetonbau. Writing in German was quite a challenge for me, so I'm quite proud of the final result. I spent many a morning muttering Ausbeimitnachseitvonzu in front of my…
We recently published a paper on a case study we did on an existing bridge in 2010/2011. The paper is published in the Journal of Bridge Engineering, and can be accessed through this link.The abstract of the paper is as…
We've recently published a paper in Construction and Building Materials, titled "Proposal for the fatigue strength of concrete under cycles of compression". This paper is based on the research I did during summer 2014 in Delft, to develop a proposal…
I recently published a paper in the ACI Structural Journal about the second series of experiments we did in the Stevin Laboratory of TU Delft. This paper is also the last paper about the experimental work I did for my…
