The number of high-rise reinforced concrete (RC) buildings is steadily increasing since 1980’s. The use of high strength concrete is indispensible for high-rise RC construction to ensure sufficient strength of the structure. The effect of high strength concrete can be significantly improved by the use of high strength and large size reinforcing bars. The yield strength of transverse reinforcement is limited in the current design codes to prevent possible sudden concrete failure due to over reinforcement. This paper presents the effects of the yield strength of transverse reinforcement and compressive strength of concrete on the structural behavior of reinforced concrete cylinders. Two parameters were considered in this investigation: compressive strength of concrete and the yield strength of transverse reinforcement (472MPa, 880MPa, and 1,430 MPa). Analytical and experimental results indicated that the structural behavior of RC cylinders confined with high strength transverse reinforcement is strongly influenced by compressive strength of concrete.

Abstract This paper presents a data-driven machine learning approach of support vector regression (SVR) with genetic algorithm (GA) optimization approach called SVR-GA for predicting the shear strength capacity of medium-to ultra-high strength concrete beams with longitudinal reinforcement and vertical stirrups. 148 experimental samples collected with different geometric, material and physical factors from literature were utilized for SVR-GA with 5-fold cross validation. Shear influence factors such as the stirrup spacing, the beam width, the shear span-to-depth ratio, the effective depth of the beam, the concrete compressive and tensile strength, the longitudinal reinforcement ratio, the product of stirrup ratio and stirrup yield strength were served as input variables. The simulation results show that the predicted shear strength of SVR-GA model can achieve high accuracy based on testing set with a coefficient of determination (R2) of 0.9642, root mean squared error (RMSE) of 1.4685 and mean absolute error (MAE) of 1.0216 superior to that for traditional SVR model with 0.9379, 2.0375 and 1.4917. The sensitivity analysis reveals that the most important variables affecting the prediction of the shear strength are shear span-to-depth ratio, concrete compressive strength, reinforcement ratio and the product of stirrup ratio and stirrup yield strength. Three-dimensional input/output maps can vividly reflect the nonlinear variation of the shear strength with the two coupling variables. All in all, the proposed SVR-GA model presents an effective and accurate artificial intelligence technology for modeling the shear strength of ultra-high strength concrete beams with stirrups.

In many structural and constructional applications (such as pressure vessels), steels, particularly high-yield-strength steels, are not being utilized as effectively as may be possible. This occurs because the design stress permitted by many specifications and codes is effectively based only on the tensile strength. Thus, the increase in yield-to-tensile-strength ratio with increasing tensile strength is not recognized, and no design-stress credit is given for the proportionately higher yield strength of high-strength steels. Because increased utilization of yield strength will probably require demonstration of the satisfactory fabricability and service performance of high-yield-strength steels, the present paper summarizes the general effects of increased yield strength on formability and weldability and on resistance to failure by stress-dependent modes—overload, brittle fracture, fatigue, and stress corrosion. The present state of knowledge indicates that fabrication does not significantly limit the use of high-strength steels. Although high-yield-strength steels are more difficult to form and weld than lower-strength steels, appropriate forming and welding practices that are not unduly restrictive are in common use for such steels. If design stress is based directly on yield strength, the safety factor against failure by simple overload or by unstable propagation of a crack decreases with increasing yield strength. However, increasing fracture toughness can significantly reduce susceptibility to failure by unstable crack propagation that is the result of low shear energy absorption or the growth of cracks to critical size by fatigue or stress corrosion. In recent years, the fracture toughness of steel has been continuously rising because control of metallurgical factors is continuously improving. For this and other reasons that suggest beneficial effects of yield strength, the possibility of more effectively utilizing the yield strength of steel should be reexamined.

Mg - Cu - Zn ultrafine eutectic composites with different length scale heterogeneity, consisting of micrometer size dendrites and/or ultrafine scale bimodal eutectics, exhibit high yield strength as well as good plasticity at room temperature compression. Among these alloys, micron-scale α- Mg dendrites reinforced ultrafine eutectic composites exhibit high yield strength of 310 ~ 420 MPa and large plasticity of 7 ~ 12%. Meanwhile, a Mg 72Cu5Zn23 alloy comprising a bimodal eutectic structure without the micron-scale α- Mg dendrites shows the optimized mechanical properties the highest yield strength of 455 MPa combined with a considerable plastic strain of ~5%.

A prosthesis for a cruciate ligament of the knee involves the problem of implanting a short and small spring for which the load-deformation response cannot be duplicated by any single man-made material. This work presents a model of the elastic behavior of a two material composite prosthesis made of high-strength fibers spirally wound around a soft elastic core. At each end of the core, the fibers are attached to a pulling device. Under a tension load, the fibers exert a pressure on the core which deforms radially, permitting the elongation of the prosthesis. This allows the achievement of large deformation while both the fibers and the core remain in the elastic domain. The high strength of the spring is provided by the high yield strength of the fibers. The results show the influence of the design variables on the deformation of the prosthesis.
