It uses superplasticizer and stabilizers to significantly increase the ease and rate of flow. Degradation and serious damage of concrete structures triggered by sulfate attack have been widely reported in the saline soil or salty-lake areas all over the world. Sulfate has been claimed to be one of the common corrosive sources in the environments such as soil, groundwater, lakes, or rivers. Many studies revealed that sulfates in the pore solutions could react with cement composition or hydration products to form new phases. Concrete aggregates can include healthy and unhealthy gravel and sand grains. In this study, the effect of unwell aggregates disposed to expand reaction in a simulated destructive environment on the strength and durability of samples is investigated at different ages for compression, tensile and bending samples of self-compacting concrete. Unhealthy materials extract from the exploited gravel and sand mines, which have an impurity rate of more than the allowable value of 0.4% according to Issue 9 of the Iran National Building Code. Sodium hydroxide with three different percentages (2%, 2/5%, 3%) of water weight is used to prevent the destructive effects of sulfate environment. According to a review of past studies and review of similar topics, self-compacting concrete was used instead of concrete. Also, in this study, the aggregate sulfate is used in self-compacting concrete. Therefore, the mechanical properties and durability of self-compacting concrete in sulfate environments were investigated. The results of the study show that the addition of sodium hydroxide to the sulfate aggregate in 7 days for self-compacted concrete sample increases the tensile strength up to 84.15% and reduces the permeability and water absorption up to 21.87 and 16.67, respectively.}, keywords = {Strength properties and durability of concrete,self-compacting,Sodium hydroxide,Sulfate environment,compressive strength}, title_fa = {بررسی تأثیر افزودنی سدیم هیدروکسید سدیم در خصوصیات مقاومتی و دوام بتن خود متراکم با سنگدانه های سولفاتی در محیط سولفاته}, abstract_fa = {مصالح سنگی بتن می‌تواند شامل شن و ماسه‌ی سالم و ناسالم باشد. در پژوهش حاضر، اثر سنگدانه‌های غیرسالم مستعد واکنش انبساطی به همراه محیط مخرب شبیه‌سازی شده در نمونه‌های فشاری، کششی و خمشی بتن خودمتراکم و نیز مقاومت و دوام نمونه‌ها در سن‌های مختلف بررسی شده است. مصالح ناسالم از معادن شن و ماسه‌ی در حال بهره‌برداری تهیه شده است، که میزان ناخالصی بالاتری از مقدار مجاز \%0/4 مطابق با مبحث نهم مقررات ملی ایران است. به منظور پیش‌گیری از آثار مخرب محیط سولفاتی در بتن، از هیدروکسیدسدیم با سه درصد متفاوت (۲\٪، \%2/5$ و \%3)وزنی آب استفاده شده است. نتایج مطالعه نشان می‌دهد که سنگدانه‌ی سولفاتی در محیط سولفاتی باعث کاهش مقاومت مکانیکی و دوام بتن خودمتراکم می‌شود. از طرفی دیگر، افزودن هیدروکسیدسدیم به سنگدانه‌ی سولفاته در نمونه‌ی ۲۸ روزه‌ی بتن خودتراکم واقع در محیط سولفاتی باعث افزایش مقاومت کششی تا 84/15، کاهش نفوذپذیری و همچنین جذب آب بتن به ترتیب تا 21/87 و 16/67 درصد شده است.}, keywords_fa = {خصوصیات مقاومتی و دوام بتن,خودمتراکم,هیدروکسیدسدیم,محیط سولفاته,مقاومت فشاری}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22326.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22326_8ad6e09b6463122150bcac2b585e9db4.pdf} } @article { author = {Kakehazar, M. and ToopchiNezhad, H.}, title = {A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF THE PERFORMANCE OF BONDED AND UNBONDED ELASTOMERIC ISOLATORS IN SEISMIC ISOLATION OF ABOVE GROUND LIQUID STORAGE TANKS}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {15-25}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {10.24200/j30.2021.56788.2856}, abstract = {One of the most common types of seismic isolators is steel reinforced elastomeric isolators (SREIs) which consist of alternating layers of elastomer and steel reinforcing plates. Unbonded fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators (UFREI) represent a relatively new type of elastomeric isolators. In this type of isolator, to control lateral strain and provide vertical stiffness, FRP layers are used instead of steel plates. Additionally, to reduce the cost of isolators, the idea of removing the top and bottom connection plates and the unbonded use of isolators has been considered. In UFREIs, due to the rollover deformation and the reduction of the isolator horizontal stiffness, it is expected that the seismic isolation efficiency increases as compared to the bonded isolators. In this research, the performances of UFREIs and conventional SREIs in improving the seismic behavior of liquid storage tanks were evaluated and compared. The isolated water tank was modeled using a mass and spring model of three degrees of freedom with convective mass, impulsive mass, and rigid mass. Time history analyses were performed on the fixed-base storage tank as the benchmark structure and the two base-isolated tanks with steel-reinforced and unbonded fiber-reinforced isolators. The results show that both types of isolators are effective in significantly reducing the demand base shear in the tanks. However, seismic isolation increases the displacement demand in the convective mass. Regarding the comparison of the two types of isolators, it was observed that on average, UFREIs in slender and broad tanks are 33.5% and 23.9%, respectively, more efficient than the SREIs in reducing the maximum base shear forces. Also, there is no significant difference in the maximum displacement of the convective mass in the two isolation systems. The displacement and shear forces developed in the unbonded isolators were found less sensitive to the variations of the Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) as compared with the conventional bonded isolators.}, keywords = {elastomeric isolators,liquid storage tanks,unbonded fiber-reinforced elastomeric isolators,dynamic spring-mass system,time-history analysis}, title_fa = {مقایسه ی عملکرد جداگرهای الاستومری متصل و غیر متصل در جداسازی لرزه یی مخازن مایعات رو زمینی}, abstract_fa = {عملکرد جداسازهای الاستومری غیرمتصل مسلح به الیاف (U‌F‌R‌E‌I) و جداگرهای الاستومری متصل مسلح به صفحات فولادی (S‌R‌E‌I)در بهبود رفتار لرزه‌یی مخازن نگهدارنده‌ی مایعات مطالعه و مقایسه شده است. مخزن آب جداسازی شده به صورت مدل جرم و فنر با ۳ درجه‌ی آزادی، شامل: جرم مواج، جرم نوسانی و جرم صلب معادل‌سازی شده و تحت شتاب‌نگاشت‌های تک‌محوری افقی، تحلیل تاریخچه‌ی زمانی شده است. نتایج نشان دادند که کاربرد هر دو نوع جداگرها در کاهش قابل توجه نیروی برشی در مخازن اثرگذار بوده و از طرفی موجب افزایش جابه‌جایی در جرم مواج شده است. در خصوص مقایسه‌ی دو نوع جداگر مشاهده شد که جداگرهای U‌F‌R‌E‌I در مخازن لاغر به طور متوسط به میزان ۵/۳۳\٪ و در مخازن پهن به طور متوسط به میزان ۹/۲۳\٪ نسبت به جداگرهای S‌R‌E‌I در کاهش بیشینه‌ی نیروهای برشی مؤثرتر ظاهر شده‌اند و تفاوت معناداری در میزان بیشینه‌ی جابه‌جایی جرم مواج در دو نوع جداگر مذکور وجود ندارد.}, keywords_fa = {{مخازن ذخیره‌ی مایعات,جداسازهای الاستومری,جداسازهای الیافی غیرمتصل الاستومری,سیستم دینامیکی جرم و فنر,تحلیل تاریخچه‌ی زمانی}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22336.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22336_7a77f250174d40eeeef2cc6486ac86bc.pdf} } @article { author = {Banaei Moghadam, S. and Khanmohammadi, M.R.}, title = {Prediction Of Time-Dependent Bearing Capacity Of Pile Driven In Cohesive Soil Using Group Method Of Data Handling}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {27-35}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {10.24200/j30.2021.56892.2865}, abstract = {Evaluating the ultimate bearing capacity of piles has been always an important concern for geotechnical engineers. Pile setup is a term which refers to an increase in bearing capacity of pile after a specific time. This increase is mainly considered relevant to the dissipation of excess pore water pressure created as a result of disturbance of the soil around the pile. Many researches have been centered on the investigation of pile setup and the factors influencing that. Results indicate that soil and pile properties can affect the occurrence and intensity of this phenomenon. The application of artificial intelligence such as artificial neural networks and evolutionary algorithms are considered as efficient and powerful methods for prediction and function finding purposes. Group Method of Data Handling is an intelligent approach that operates in a similar pattern to artificial neural networks. In this system, dual combinations of input variables are created in the form of Kolmogorov-Gabor polynomials. Based on the evaluation criteria such as Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) and determination coefficient (R^2), the polynomials with higher accuracy are selected and introduced to the next layer as inputs. This repetitive approach is used to reach the best polynomials predicting the target variable of the project. GMDH is a self-organized system in which the number of required layers and neurons are determined during the running process. In this paper, a dataset obtained from the literature review and contains information about 170 test piles derived in clay and mixed soil, is used in which the ultimate bearing capacity is considered as a target, while the other ones are independent variables. It is noticeable that to evaluate the efficiency of the ultimate model, data is randomly divided into training and testing data which the former includes 118 and the latter has used 52 data. The results of this study indicate that the initial bearing capacity of pile (End Of Driving) and undrained shear strength ( S_u) have a significant effect on the time-dependent increase in bearing capacity of pile. The ultimate model obtained from the GMDH system with the RMSE of 742.85 and the (R^2) of 0.768 is an acceptable equation that can be used in the process of pile design.}, keywords = {Pile setup,Time-dependent bearing capacity,Artificial intelligence,Group method of data handling}, title_fa = {پیش‌بینی ظرفیت باربری وابسته به زمان شمع‌های کوبشی در خاک چسبنده با استفاده از روش گروهی مدیریت داده‌ها}, abstract_fa = {وابستگی ظرفیت باربری شمع‌ها به زمان، از مهم‌ترین مسائل در زمینه‌ی طراحی شمع‌هاست. عموماً ظرفیت باربری شمع‌های اجرا شده در خاک‌های چسبنده بعد از اتمام فرایند نصب و با گذشت زمان افزایش می‌یابند که آن را پدیده‌ی گیرش می‌نامند. در مطالعه‌ی حاضر، برای تخمین میزان گیرش و ارائه‌ی رابطه‌یی کابردی برای استفاده در مقاصد طراحی پی‌های عمیق، از روش گروهی مدیریت داده‌ها (G‌M‌D‌H) که یک الگوریتم هوشمند و داده‌محور است، استفاده شده است. بانک داده‌ی استفاده شده در پژوهش حاضر، شامل خصوصیاتی از شمع و خاک بوده است که به عنوان متغیرهای مستقل به سیستم معرفی شده‌اند. نتایج حاصل از تحلیل حساسیت مدل نشان می‌دهد که پارامترهایی، نظیر ظرفیت باربری اولیه و مقاومت برشی زهکشی نشده‌ی خاک با درصد مشارکت به ترتیب ۳۷ و ۲۲، تأثیر به‌سزایی در افزایش ظرفیت باربری وابسته به زمان شمع دارند. چندجمله‌یی حاصل از مدل‌سازی برای پیش‌بینی ظرفیت باربری وابسته به زمان در مطالعه‌ی حاضر، با ضریب تعیین 0/76 می‌تواند به عنوان رابطه‌یی قابل قبول در فرایند طراحی شمع استفاده شود.}, keywords_fa = {گیرش شمع,ظرفیت باربری وابسته به زمان,هوش مصنوعی,مدیریت گروهی داده‌ها}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22335.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22335_01def1ae3d06cc917490754c27f08bd8.pdf} } @article { author = {Toghyani, SH. and Zeynalian, M. and Ataei, A. and Daei, M.}, title = {A Numerical Study On Composite Joints Comprising Precast Concrete Slabs And Bolted Shear Connectors}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {37-47}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {10.24200/j30.2021.56583.2840}, abstract = {The use of composite decks (concrete slab and steel beam) has been increasing in recent years due to their high structural efficiency. The connection between the concrete slab and the steel beam is usually made by studs that are welded to the steel beam flange. This type of connection should be completely destroyed at the end of the structure life cycle; or, in case of need to repair the connection, it is not possible to reuse it again. Thus, huge waste materials are then produced at the end of project life cycle which leads to a non-friendly condition for the environment. Therefore, it is recommended that bolted shear joints be employed for connecting the concrete slabs to steel beams. Hence, at the end of the structure life, or in case of damage, members can be easily disassembled and reused. In addition, it is proved that the structural performance of this type of joints against static loads is better than welded joints, i.e., their shear capacity is higher. In this study, the structural behavior of bolted shear connectors is investigated. For this purpose, numerical models were modeled using Abaqus software and then, were verified against the test results. Next, an extensive parametric study was performed considering different structural characteristics including reinforcement ratio, thickness and compressive strength of prefabricated concrete slab, strength, and size of bolts. The results show that the type of bolted shear connector and the concrete slab compressive strength are the most important factors affecting the behavior of the bolt shear force-displacement diagram. Also, in all cases, bolt failure was observed as the main failure mode. This study proves that the composite beam with bolted shear connectors can be a reliable alternative for the welded shear connectors currently in use which not only enhance the connection performance but also reduce the waste materials production at the end of the projects.}, keywords = {steel beam,Concrete slab,Bolted shear connector,Composite connection,Structural behavior}, title_fa = {بررسی عددی اتصال‌های کامپوزیت تشکیل شده از دال‌های بتنی پیش‌ساخته و اتصال‌های برشی پیچی}, abstract_fa = {استفاده از سقف‌های کامپوزیت (دال بتنی و تیر فولادی) به دلیل کارایی بالای آنها در سال‌های اخیر رو به افزایش است. معمولاً اتصال بین دال بتنی و تیر فولادی از طریق برش‌گیرهایی که به بال تیر فولادی جوش داده می‌شوند )گل‌میخ‌ها(، برقرار می‌شود؛ که نقش اصلی را در یک‌پارچه کردن عملکرد مرکب سازه‌های مذکور و تحمل نیروهای برشی ایفا می‌کنند. در پژوهش حاضر، به بررسی رفتار سازه‌یی برش‌گیرهای پیچی در تیرهای کامپوزیت پرداخته شده است. با استفاده از نتایج آزمایشگاهی موجود، نمونه‌های عددی با استفاده از نرم‌افزار آباکوس مدل شده‌اند و پس از صحت‌سنجی مدل‌ها و تطبیق نتایج عددی با نتایج حاصل از آزمایش، یک مطالعه‌ی پارامتریک گسترده بر اساس تأثیر درصد آرماتور، ضخامت و مقاومت فشاری دال بتنی پیش‌ساخته، مقاومت و اندازه‌ی پیچ‌ها روی سازه‌های اشاره شده و اتصال‌های پیچی همراه با آنها انجام شده است.نتایج مطالعه‌ی پارامتریک نشان داد که نوع پیچ مصرفی و مقاومت فشاری دال بتنی از مهم‌ترین عوامل مؤثر در رفتار نمودار نیرو - جابه‌جایی پیچ هستند.}, keywords_fa = {تیر فولادی,دال بتنی,اتصال برشی پیچی,اتصال کامپوزیت,رفتار سازه‌یی}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22474.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22474_e6cb91186303dfd79cca9a96d82fdce5.pdf} } @article { author = {Jamali Paghaleh, H. and Jahanandish, M.}, title = {Experimental Investigation of the Reduction of Lateral Pressures on Retaining Walls Using Expanded Polystyrene Granules}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {49-57}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {10.24200/j30.2021.56411.2826}, abstract = {Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) is commonly used in construction, especially in geotechnical projects, due to its super lightweight and high compressibility. One of the applications of this material is to use it behind the retaining walls to reduce the lateral earth pressures exerted on the wall by the embankment. In this research, two types of EPS in the form of granules and sheets of EPS are used as interface between the embankment and the wall. In order to carry out this research, an instrumented laboratory model of retaining wall has been used and the effect of using these materials as buffer behind retaining wall has been investigated. The assembly includes a 105 28.5 70 cm sand box, a retaining wall model with 28.3 54.2 cm front dimension, a wall-displacement system for driving the wall, and a data acquisition system (data logger). The lateral pressures are measured by eight load cells attached to 8 equally spaced wall sections. The approximate relative density of the backfill sand was 70%. Experiments included cases in which a sheet of EPS-block or stack of small bags filled with granular EPS was used as a buffer between soil and wall. The results of these two cases were compared with the case in which the backfill was the sand alone. After measuring the lateral forces in the at-rest state, the active and passive states were created by displacing the wall away or toward the backfill. The lateral stresses could be measured in any state of displacement. The results showed that the use of EPS behind the retaining wall as an interface material resulted in a significant reduction in lateral pressures. This was due to the very low stiffness of EPS compared to the soil. It was also observed that the use of bags filled with EPS-granules had a greater effect on the reduction of lateral pressures on the retaining wall compared to using sheets of EPS-block.}, keywords = {Expanded Polystyrene (EPS),Geofoam,Geosynthetics,Reduction of Lateral Pressures,Retaining wall}, title_fa = {بررسی آزمایشگاهی کاهش فشارهای جانبی بر دیوارهای حائل با استفاده از دانه‌های پلی‌استایرنِ منبسط شده (ژئوفوم)}, abstract_fa = {یکی از موارد کاربرد ژئوفوم‌ها، استفاده از آن‌ها در پشت دیوارهای حائل به‌منظور کاهش فشارهای جانبی ناشی از خاکریز بر دیوار است. ژئوفوم‌ها با توجه به داشتن خصوصیات مکانیکی مشابه خاک‌ها و همچنین داشتن خصوصیت فشردگی‌پذیری در ذات خود می‌توانند باعث کاهش فشارهای جانبی بر دیوارهای حائل شوند. در پژوهش حاضر، از دو نوع ژئوفوم به صورت دانه‌یی و صفحه‌یی بین خاکریز و دیوار استفاده شده است. با استفاده از مدل ابزاربندی شده‌ی آزمایشگاهی از دیوار حائل، تأثیر استفاده از ژئوفوم‌ها، بین دیوار و خاکریز پشت دیوار بررسی و مشاهده شد که استفاده از آن‌ها به‌عنوان مصالح پُرکننده بین دیوارهای حائل و خاکریز، به‌علت سختی کم، وزن بسیار کم و فشردگی‌پذیری بیشتری که در مقایسه با خاک‌ها دارند، باعث کاهش چشمگیر فشارهای جانبی بر دیوارهای حائل می‌شود. همچنین مشاهده شد که استفاده از کیسه‌های پُر شده از ژئوفوم‌های دانه‌یی نسبت به استفاده از صفحات ژئوفوم، تأثیر چشمگیرتری در کاهش فشارهای جانبی در دیوارهای حائل دارد.}, keywords_fa = {پلی‌استایرن منبسط,دیوار حائل,ژئوسنتتیک,ژئوفوم,ژئوفوم دانه‌یی,کاهش فشار جانبی}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22337.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22337_b5f7c8ab2b1c3222b4ef58f0b114e886.pdf} } @article { author = {Kalani-Sarokolaee, L. and Khanmohammadi, L. and Navayi Neya, B.}, title = {Effect Of Base Isolation On Seismic Response Of Concrete Elevated Tanks Subjected To Both Translational And Rotational Components Of Far And Near-Field Earthquakes}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {59-71}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {10.24200/j30.2021.57110.2882}, abstract = {Water storage tanks are one of the vital and essential arteries whose immediate operational performance after an earthquake is of special importance and interruptions in their operation can indirectly increase the damage and losses caused by earthquakes.

Base shear force and normal stress of tanks were determined considering dynamic interaction of water and tank. The corresponding rotational component of each translational pair of accelerograms was generated using the classic formulation of the theory of elasticity and wave propagation simultaneously, taking into account the frequency-dependency of wave velocity. To model the base isolator in the present study, an equivalent simplified link and combination model, based on 3D model of reference [32], has been suggested and its performance accuracy has been evaluated. The results of dynamic analysis show that the presence of the base isolator in all the studied conditions causes a reduction of about in base shear and in normal stress of the elevated tanks. Increasing the tank volume will reduce the decreasing effect of the isolator on the normal stress of tanks, but will improve the performance of the seismic isolator in reducing the base shear. Also, increasing the angular acceleration of rotational component of near-field earthquakes weakens by about the decreasing effect of the base isolator on the seismic response of elevated-tanks. Thus, neglecting rotational component of the earthquakes in analysis of tanks located near the faults will magnify the decreasing effect of the base isolator on seismic demands and the poor design of structure.

From a geometrical point of view, steel tanks have a very low thickness compared to the other two dimensions and thus are classified as thin-walled structures. Nowadays, the use of thin-walled structures is very popular. The main reason for this is the low weight and high strength of such structures. In order to reduce the weight and cost of the structure, cylindrical steel tanks can be made with variable thicknesses in height. Changing the thickness of the tank's wall has been considered to reduce weight and economic requirements. Settlement is one of the important issues that must be considered for reservoirs. In general, foundation settlement occurs under the tanks’ walls due to special soil properties, which are divided into three general components: Uniform, Tilt, and Local settlement. In the meantime, local settlement has the greatest impact on the tank’s shell, although it has the lowest value. This component can cause large radial displacements, shell buckling, and even tank’s failure. In this study, 17 steel cylindrical tanks with or without a reinforcing ring on the upper part were modeled in ABAQUS software and placed under local settlement at the edge of their floor. The values of settlement, equivalent buckling load, and their radial deformation were compared to each other. S4R elements (a four-node element with reduced curvature double integral) were used to mesh the tanks. The results of nonlinear analysis indicate that buckling occurs at the lower part of the shell. Moreover, the local settlement causes severe buckling at the site and perpendicular direction of the settlement.

The result of desalination tests showed that the highest (55%) and lowest (20%) percentages of desalination were related to Na2SO4 and NaCl salts, respectively, in all membranes. By modifying the membrane to 0.25 wt.% EDTA-GO, the removal efficiency rates for Cu2+ and Pb2+ metal ions in the single-component system increased from 21% to 88% and from 19% to 85% compared to the unmodified NFM0 membrane, respectively. CR dye removal efficiency for all modified nanofiltration membranes was more than 98%. Increasing the Na2SO4 concentration in the dye-salt binary system had no significant effect on the removal percentage of CR.

Human experience has shown that when damage occurs in these megastructures, there are irreversible financial, environmental, and fatal losses. Therefore, the issue of safety and proper performance of dams is of vital importance both in terms of designing new structures or health monitoring of the old structures. This subject is of more particular importance in the case of concrete arch dams, since in the absence of identification of small and minor damages, with the growth and spread of structural damages, a general failure may occur in these infrastructures with considerable human and financial losses. Nevertheless, concrete arch dams have been less broadly considered in the investigation, and most of the researches have included simple structures with a low-degree-of-freedom. Therefore, the main objective of this paper is to study the effects of structural damages (including the intensity and location) on the modal properties of these engineering systems. For this purpose, the modal characteristics of the structure, such as the natural frequencies and the shape-modes, are initially computed using finite element model on a concrete arch dam. Considering different scenarios for damage including, nine different locations (on different vertical and horizontal locations) are chosen. The modal characteristics of the system would be then determined before and after the occurrence of damage. In the presented research, the effects of damages at three levels of arch dam body on the modal parameters of the system are investigated. The comparison of the structural modal parameters of the intact and damaged states shows that first, the natural frequencies of the system have lower sensitivity than mode-shapes of the system, and also the damages to the top and middle are more effective than the corner zones on the modal features of the arc-dam body.}, keywords = {Health monitoring,Concrete arch dam,Modal characteristics,Intensity and location of damage,natural frequency,Mode-shape}, title_fa = {تاثیر شدت و محل آسیب در بدنه سد بتنی قوسی بر روی خصوصیات مودی سازه}, abstract_fa = {شناسایی خرابی‌های سازه‌یی با روش‌های ارتعاش - مبنا از جمله مسائلی بوده است که به دلیل ماهیت غیرمخربی‌اش، بسیار به آن توجه شده است. این موضوع در مورد سدهای بتنی قوسی، اهمیتی دوچندان دارد و عدم شناسایی خرابی‌های موضعی در ابرسازه‌های ذکر شده و گسترش آن، ایجاد خرابی‌های کلی و ناگهانی و به دنبال آن تحمیل خسارت‌های عمده‌ی جانی و مالی را در سطح ملی و جهانی در پی خواهد داشت. در مطالعه‌ی حاضر، به بررسی آثار خرابی در ویژگی‌های مودال در سدهای بتنی قوسی پرداخته شده است. برای این منظور مدل اجزاء محدود یک سد بتنی قوسی، با سناریوهای مختلف خرابی، شامل: ۹ محل مختلف و ۳ سطح از خرابی به همراه تغییر در ویژگی‌های مودال سیستم قبل و بعد از وقوع خرابی بررسی شده است. نتایج پارامترهای مودال سازه‌ی سالم و سیستم‌های آسیب دیده نشان می‌دهند که بسامدهای طبیعی سیستم، حساسیت کمتری نسبت به شکل مودهای سیستم در برابر خرابی دارند. همچنین، خرابی‌های موجود در قسمت‌های بالایی و میانی، اثر بیشتری در تغییرات مشخصات مودال سیستم نسبت به مناطق پایینی از بدنه‌ی سد می‌گذارند.}, keywords_fa = {پایش سلامت,سد بتنی قوسی,خصوصیات مودی,شدت و محل آسیب,بسامد طبیعی,شکل مود}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22328.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22328_939b8b02aad601de22a33302034bff98.pdf} } @article { author = {Azadvar, N. and Zargaran, M. and Rahimzadeh Rofooei, F. and Attari, N.}, title = {Numerical investigation of the effect of cross-section shape, mortar strength, and number of textile layers on the cyclic behavior of RC columns}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {105-115}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {10.24200/j30.2021.57462.2911}, abstract = {Repairing and strengthening of structures are unavoidable. The main reasons for repairing and strengthening concrete structures are improper design or construction, weakness of the structural elements, changing the usage of the building and damages that happen in structural elements. There are various ways for strengthening the vulnerable structures. In recent years, usage of high strength concrete reinforced with textile meshes (Textile Reinforced Concrete (TRC)) for strengthening the concrete structures has become a proper alternative for retrofitting the buildings. Using reinforced concrete with TRC is one of the new methods for strengthening the concrete structures. This method has become popular in recent years due to its light weight, high strength, no changes in the dimensions of reinforced concrete elements, and ease of use. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of this method in strengthening concrete columns with a low reinforcement ratio that need reinforcement. In this investigation, after verifying two models simulated by finite element software (ABAQUS) with experimental results, eight models were studied numerically. The models consisted of columns and supporting beams and they were categorized into four groups by different parameters which are effective in strengthening the concrete columns. In this paper, various parameters such as geometry of cross-section, mortar strength, and number of textile layers were investigated. The columns and their connections to supporting beams were strengthened with TRC. Models strengthening were carried out using vertical layers plus horizontal layers of textile meshes in cement mortar. Lateral force capacity, crack, and stress pattern on concrete and mortar surfaces and yielding of rebars in reinforced concrete columns were compared and evaluated.

In geotechnical engineering, finding a low-cost and environmentally friendly method is the most improvement challenging problem. Microbial geo-technology is a new branch of geotechnical engineering that deals with the microbiological applications. Microbial sedimentation method (MICP) is a new and emerging method that uses microorganisms in the soil and chemical processes and, thus, the production of calcite sediment increases shear strength and hardness as well as reduces permeability. In this research, we focus on microbial catalysis of urea hydrolysis, which has led to the deposition of calcium carbonate in sand using Bacillus Pasteurii. However, recent researches have not addressed the effects of some parameters such as temperature and material concentration and various bacterial concentrations simultaneously. In this study, under different temperature conditions, different material concentrations, and different bacterial concentrations (different ODs), the reaction completion time is obtained. Significant experimental results show that OD changes have little effect on the result. Also, it is demonstrated that by increasing temperature, the amount of calcium carbonate deposits has also increased. Moreover, the higher the concentration of the material raises, the greater the amount of calcium carbonate deposits, making its formation faster. Also, samples with higher concentrations need a longer time to complete their reaction. High-temperature samples have a higher reaction rate from the earliest hours, but low-temperature samples require more time to precipitate calcium carbonate.

Therefore, the implementation of shallow foundation on this type of soil can cause problems in terms of bearing capacity and settlement. Therefore, soil improvement is a logical and appropriate way. Geocell is a series of three-dimensional cells and its main application is to reinforce loose soils. Due to the mechanism of geocell interaction with the soil, the use of geocell reinforcement makes it possible to achieve a greater bearing capacity. In this study, using Abaqus finite element software, the effect of geometrical of geocell on the increase of bearing capacity of shallow foundation resting on saturated marl soil has been investigated. Also, using the analysis of the designed numerical models results, a correlation for homogeneity of the improved soil with geocell reinforcement has been presented instead of considering the soil reinforcement relations. The correlation coefficient and the presented diagram illustrate the high capability of the proposed correlation to estimate the equivalent shear strength to the geocell reinforced soil environment. The analysis results show that by increasing the geocell height for greater than , where S and B are the foundation settlement and the foundation diameter, respectively, the effect of the geocell height on increasing the bearing capacity is noticeable and it is more noticeable in looser soils. Moreover, by increasing the geocell pocket size up to (m) and the geocell length by twice the foundation diameter, there is an increase in the bearing capacity of the foundation and then, there is no noticeable change in the bearing capacity. With an increase in the length of the geocell, it can be stated that the optimal length of the geocell layer is about twice the diameter of the foundation. In order to produce a correlation for estimating the equivalent shear strength of the soil environment reinforced with geocell, a number of numerical models were designed.}, keywords = {Geocell,Bearing capacity of shallow foundation,Marl,Reinforced soil homogenization,numerical study,ABAQUS software}, title_fa = {مطالعه تأثیر مشخصات هندسی ژئوسل بر ظرفیت باربری پی سطحی مستقر بر خاک مارن اشباع}, abstract_fa = {ساخت پی‌های سطحی روی خاک‌های مارنی مرطوب، موجب به وجود آمدن نشست‌های زیاد و گسیختگی خاک می‌شود. بنابراین استفاده از مسلح‌کننده‌ها، باعث افزایش ظرفیت باربری می‌شود. در پژوهش حاضر، با کمک نرم‌افزار آباکوس به مطالعه‌ی تأثیر مشخصات هندسی ژئوسل در ظرفیت باربری پی سطحی مستقر بر خاک مارن اشباع پرداخته و در ادامه، رابطه‌یی جهت همگن‌سازی خاک بهسازی شده با تسلیح ژئوسل ارائه شده است. نتایج نشان می‌دهد که با افزایش ارتفاع ژئوسل در نسبت S نشست به B قطر پی بزرگ‌تر از ۱/۰، میزان تأثیر ارتفاع ژئوسل در افزایش ظرفیت باربری ملاحظه شده است، که میزان آن در خاک‌های سُست‌تر بیشتر بوده است. همچنین با افزایش d اندازه‌ی سلول ژئوسل تا ۲/۰ متر و b طول ژئوسل تا ۲ برابر قطر پی، افزایش ظرفیت باربری پی اتفاق افتاده و پس از آن، ظرفیت باربری تغییر محسوسی نکرده است. با افزایش نسبت طول لایه‌ی ژئوسل می‌توان بیان کرد که طول بهینه‌ی لایه‌ی ژئوسل ۲ برابر قطر پی است.}, keywords_fa = {ژئوسل,ظرفیت باربری پی سطحی,خاک مارن,همگن‌سازی خاک مسلح,مطالعه‌ی عددی,نرم‌افزار آباکوس}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22332.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22332_2d3c26cd7d9c45e6e1ebc68193b2ca74.pdf} } @article { author = {}, title = {ABSTRACT OF PAPERS IN ENGLISH}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {169-178}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {}, abstract = {-}, keywords = {}, title_fa = {چکیده مقالات به انگلیسی دوره 37.2 شماره 3.2}, abstract_fa = {-}, keywords_fa = {}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22619.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22619_5f0338a4ae015c7a5cc15648091edc59.pdf} } @article { author = {}, title = {List of Articles and Journal Info}, journal = {Sharif Journal of Civil Engineering}, volume = {37.2}, number = {3.2}, pages = {177-178}, year = {2021}, publisher = {Sharif University of Technology}, issn = {2676-4768}, eissn = {2676-4776}, doi = {}, abstract = {-}, keywords = {}, title_fa = {فهرست مقالات و اطلاعات مجله به انگلیسی دوره 37.2 شماره 3.2}, abstract_fa = {-}, keywords_fa = {}, url = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22618.html}, eprint = {https://sjce.journals.sharif.edu/article_22618_fa83eee07eb98567faa1e370ee608b4a.pdf} }
