T1 - Application of Elastic Reverse Time Migration to Ultrasonic Echo Data in Civil Engineering N2 - To improve ultrasonic imaging of concrete structures, we transferred a seismic migration technique, the Reverse Time Migration (RTM), to non-destructive testing. A 2D elastic RTM algorithm was tested on synthetic ultrasonic echo data. Compared to the typically used synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) as well as our acoustic RTM algorithm, the presented elastic RTM results show an enhancement in imaging vertical reflectors and complex features inside the 2D numerical concrete model.

A1 - Niederleithinger, Ernst T1 - Real-time bridge monitoring using ultrasonic techniques combined with six-component (6-C) measurements N2 - This study aims to develop a real time structural health monitoring method by ultrasonic tests combined with advanced six component (6C) translation and rotation measurements. Conventionally, the investigation of the velocity and acceleration response in the translation direction is used to obtain the eigenfrequencies of structures. Recently the measurement of rotation has been considered to fully characterize the dynamic behavior of structures. This research undertakes the evaluation of a novel 6C sensor (IMU50-iXblue) with components originally developed for navigation for the purpose of bridge monitoring. However, as for all vibration recordings, there is a certain influence of environmental conditions (mainly temperature) which may affect evaluation and the results of structural assessment. We propose applying the cross-correlation function to the 6C ambient vibration signals to reconstruct wave propagation and using coda wave interferometry (CWI) to obtain internal velocity variation from waveforms. A field experiment on a large-scale prestressed concrete bridge model is presented. To verify that we are able to identify the pre-stress loss even in presence of temperature effects, we perform measurements in two different scales: the ultrasonic and output-only, vibration measurements. The change in the structural properties due to the pre-stress loss should be detected by the pulse velocity change. The results reveal both the performance and advantages of ultrasonic techniques and the capabilities of 6C sensors. To conclude, the application of CWI to wave signals contributes to a comprehensive assessment for bridge monitoring.

Im Ergebnis der ausgewerteten Messungen sowie strukturdynamischer Berechnungen zeigte sich, dass der Baugrund zwar aus statischer Sicht sehr gut tragfähig, aber dynamisch als eher ungünstig zu beurteilen ist. Weiterhin wurde festgestellt, dass in dynamischer Hinsicht ein vorgenommener Bodenaustausch tendenziell eine Verschlechterung der Aufstellbedingungen darstellte. Für das betroffene Bürogebäude konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass durch den Betrieb der Zementmühle die Anregung der Deckeneigenfrequenzen zu deutlich spürbaren Resonanzschwingungen führte. Aufgrund der tieffrequenten Anregung durch den Mühlenbetrieb sind Maßnahmen zur Minderung der Schwingungsemissionen generell und insbesondere nach erfolgter Aufstellung der Mühle schwer bzw. gar nicht zu realisieren. Im Beitrag wird daher darauf eingegangen, auf welche Aspekte bei der Planung zur Aufstellung derart großer Mühlen zwingend zu achten ist. T2 - 7.

Cross section analysis revealed the crevice corrosion as main mechanism instead of pitting corrosion, which would be expected to happen in the extremely high Chloride concentration. Detailed analysis using EDS line scan shown the slow diffusion of Chloride, suggesting why pitting did not happen after 20 weeks. To mimic the passivated steel surface, the steel coupon was passivated in simulated pore solution having pH 13.5 for 42 days. The passivated coupon was further exposed to NGB solution for 28 days. Electrochemical characterization was performed along the exposure processes to reveal the change in impedance, indicating the corrosion resistance of steel casing/mortar interface.

A1 - Schmidt, Wolfram A1 - Mezhov, Alexander T1 - Influence of the hydroxypropylation of starch on its performance as viscosity modifying agent N2 - Synopsis: Starch is a commonly used viscosity modifying agent (VMA). The performance of starch as VMA depends on its origin (e.g. potato, corn, cassava, etc.) and corresponding molecular properties, such as molecular weight, ratio between amylose and amylopectin etc. Depending upon the application, the efficiency of starch can be enhanced by hydroxypropylation. The maximum degree of substitution (DoS) cannot be greater than 3.0, which is the number of hydroxy groups per glucose monomer in the polymer. In the current research three potato starches exhibiting the DoS of 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8 were utilised. The influence of the modified starch on the rheological properties and hydration of cement paste, as well as the viscosity of the pore solution were investigated. Our findings show that the starch with the highest DoS increases the dynamic yield stress the most, while the plastic viscosity is less dependent on the DoS. Additionally, starch with the highest DoS retards hydration to lower degree than other starches.

T1 - The effect of the charge density of a comb polyphosphate superplasticizer on the structural build-up of cement paste N2 - Synopsis: Lately, there has been rising attention to superplasticizers (SP) based on polyphosphate esters. However, the influence of the molecular structure of the polyphosphate polymers on time-dependent properties such as structural build-up has not been examined yet intensively. To investigate this effect, three comb polyphosphate superplasticizers with different charge densities were synthesised by free radical polymerisation. Our findings indicate that SP with the lowest and medium charge densities extend the induction period more strongly than the SP with the highest charge density. The reduction of the structural build-up rate is linearly dependent on the dosage and concentration of the functional group of polyphosphate SP in the cementitious system. This study proposes a mathematical equation expressing the relationship between the structural build-up rate during the induction period and the molecular structure of the polyphosphate SP.

Nonetheless, to ensure reliability and structural integrity, standards and quality control are required in the future to bring this technology into the market. As the concrete is manufactured continuously, continuous quality control of the printing process is also required, i.e. comprehensive process monitoring. At BAM, a test rig will be installed, enabling the printing of concrete structures with a maximum size of 2 m x 1 m x 1 m (l x w x h). Here, process monitoring is the focus of the test rig. In this study, we show the results of the first pump tests, including the measurement of several parameters such as temperature and pressure along the supply system, i.e. from the concrete pump to the printer head.

It first presents results about the influence of the penetrating shape’s geometry on the influence on the cement paste specimen. Then, results are shown for the load-deflection curves depending upon time and agitation before testing. Based on the observation of the force required to penetrate the sample, conclusions on the structural build-up can be made. The observations were made over the course of time with samples that were left at rest and partly agitated before testing at different time steps. The setup allows to identify the contribution of the chemical reaction to the structural build-up process. The presence of superplasticizer obviously reduces the load that cement paste can withstand, while the loss of thixotropy is found notably lower than that of neat cement pates T2 - 13th International Conference on Superplasticizers and Other Chemical Admixtures in Concrete CY - Milan, Italy DA - 10.07.2022 KW - Thixotropy KW - Superplasticizer KW - Structural build-up KW - Texture analyzer KW - Penetration test PY - 2022 DO - https://doi.org/10.14359/51736058 VL - 354 SP - 13 EP - 24 PB - ACI Special Publications AN - OPUS4-58324 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Schneider, Ronald A1 - Cuéllar, Pablo A1 - Baeßler, Matthias T1 - Probabilistic approaches to the design and assessment of offshore foundations considering spatially varying site conditions N2 - In this contribution, we consider two applications in which probabilistic approaches can potentially complement or enhance the design and assessment of offshore wind turbine foundations. First, we illustrate in a numerical example that probabilistic modelling can be helpful in dealing with chang-es in turbine locations during the planning phase of an offshore wind farm. In this case, spatial probabilistic modelling of the ground conditions enables (a) an inference of the soil properties at the modified turbine location from field data collected at different locations across an offshore wind farm site and (b) an optimisation of further site investigations. Second, we discuss the uncer-tainties and risks associated with the installation of large diameter monopiles in soils with hetero-geneities such as strong layers and/or embedded boulders. Subsequently, we present a concept for modelling, understanding, and managing these risks based on a probabilistic model of the subgrade conditions, monopile, and subgrade-pile-interaction.

The number of successful SHM projects – especially SHM research projects – is ever growing, yielding added value and more scientific insight into the management of infrastructure asset. With the advent of the data age, the value of accessible data becomes increasingly evident. In SHM, many new data-centric methods are currently being developed at a high pace. A consequent application of research data management (RDM) concepts in SHM projects enables a systematic management of raw and processed data, and thus facilitates the development and application of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) methods to the SHM data. In this contribution, a case study based on an institutional RDM framework is presented. Data and metadata from monitoring the structural health of the Maintalbrücke Gemünden for a period of 16 months are managed with the RDM system BAM Data Store, which makes use of the openBIS data management software. An ML procedure is used to classify the data. Feature engineering, feature training and resulting data are performed and modelled in the RDM system.
