High-strength reinforcing bars have high yield strengths. It is possible to reduce the number of reinforcing bars placed in a building. Accordingly, as the amount of reinforcement decreases, the spacing of reinforcing bars increases, workability improves, and the construction period shortens. To evaluate the structural performance of high-strength reinforcing bars and the joint performance of high-strength threaded reinforcing bars, flexural performance tests were performed in this study on 12 beam members with the compressive strength of concrete, the yield strength of the tensile reinforcing bars, and the tensile reinforcing bar ratio as variables. The yield strengths of the tensile reinforcement and joint methods were used as variables, and joint performance tests were performed for six beam members. Based on this study, the foundation for using high-strength reinforcing bars with a design standard yield strength equal to 600 MPa was established. Accordingly, mechanical joints of high-strength threaded reinforcing bars (600 and 670 MPa) can be used. All six specimens were destroyed under more than the expected nominal strength. Lap splice caused brittle fractures because it was not reinforced in stirrup. Increases of 21% to 47% in the loads of specimens using a coupler and a lock nut were observed. Shape yield represents destruction—a section must ensure sufficient ductility after yielding. Therefore, a coupler and lock nut are effective.

In order to enhance the joint performance of Ti6Al4V titanium alloy (TC4) and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) for biomedical applications, different structures were fabricated on TC4 surfaces via electron beam melting (EBM) method in this study. Macromorphologies and microinterfaces of TC4–UHMWPE joints produced via hot pressing technique were carefully characterized and analyzed. The effects of different surface structures on mechanical properties and fractured surfaces were investigated and compared. Strong direct bonding (1751 N) between UHMWPE and TC4 was achieved. The interfacial bonding behavior of TC4–UHMWPE joints was further discussed. This study demonstrates the importance of combining macro- and micromechanical interlocking, which is a promising strategy for improving metal–polymer joint performance. It also provides guidance for metal surface structuring from both theoretical and practical perspectives.

This paper studies the dependence structure and bounds of several basic prototypical parallel queueing systems with correlated arrival processes to different queues. The marked feature of our systems is that each queue viewed alone is a standard single-server queuing system extensively studied in the literature, but those queues are statistically dependent due to correlated arrival streams. The major difficulty in analysing those systems is that the presence of correlation makes the explicit computation of a joint performance measure either intractable or computationally intensive. In addition, it is not well understood how and in what sense arrival correlation will improve or deteriorate a system performance measure. The objective of this paper is to provide a better understanding of the dependence structure of correlated queueing systems and to derive computable bounds for the statistics of a joint performance measure. In this paper, we obtain conditions on arrival processes under which a performance measure in two systems can be compared, in the sense of orthant and supermodular orders, among different queues and over different arrival times. Such strong comparison results enable us to study both spatial dependence (dependence among different queues) and temporal dependence (dependence over different time instances) for a joint performance measure. Further, we derive a variety of upper and lower bounds for the statistics of a stationary joint performance measure. Finally, we apply our results to synchronized queueing systems, using the ideas combined from the theory of orthant and supermodular dependence orders and majorization with respect to weighted trees (Xu and Li (2000)). Our results reveal how a performance measure can be affected, favourably or adversely, by different types of dependencies.
