Mesoscale modelling of void growth and fracture initiation in steel

Accurate prediction of ductile fracture in steels requires a mechanistic understanding of the evolution of microstructural voids under multiaxial loading. This work presents a mesoscale finite element framework implemented in Abaqus to characterise fracture initiation in structural steel using a representative volume e...

Design of Steel‐CLT Composite Beams: Bending Capacity and Stiffness

The growing pressure to decarbonise the construction industry has increased interest in structural systems that combine timber with other materials. Steel frames combined with mass‐timber floors, such as cross‐laminated timber (CLT), have been investigated as low‐carbon and lightweight solutions with strong reuse poten...
