Load‑bearing behaviors of sandwich plates with non‑uniformly distributed grid cores : Static compression and bending by Hao, Ning, Wang, Youlong, Song, Yiheng, Ruan, Sihan, Quanjin, Ma, Wang, Ziying

“…Under bending loading, most NUGPs experience local failure at the loading head, while the specific category surpassing GPs undergoes shear buckling in longer grid walls. (3) Deformation modes of the core layer, mechanical analysis, thin plate buckling theory, and equivalent bending stiffness calculations elucidate the load-bearing mechanisms of NUGPs. These findings enhance topology optimization research for sandwich plates, provide guidance for grid wall arrangements under different loading conditions, and offer insights for designing lightweight sandwich structures.…”

Sustainable structural design optimization - prestressed concrete beams by Ng, Kok Hang

“…The case study revealed that for an 18 m wide bridge, a 3-beam layout generates lesser overall EC than a 4-beam layout and a beam length (thus column spacing) of 20 to 26 m is likely to produce the lowest EC for the bridge system. …”

Shear strength of reinforced and prestressed concrete deep beams by Lu, Hai Yun.

“…The studies in this thesis mainly focus on the general behaviour, analysis and design in the shear strength of large reinforced and post-tensioned concrete deep beams. The influence of main steel ratio p, concrete strength fc', shear span-to-overall-height ratio a/h (or shear span-to-effective-depth ratio a/d), overall height h and prestress force on deep beams are investigated.…”
