Structures might suffer from effects such as moisture adsorption, carbonation, corrosion, penetration of salt ions and chemical substances, etc. In the hygroscopic range, these processes are mostly driven by diffusion. Due to the confinement of small pores ( 1 m), the Knudsen effect reduces the molecular diffusion. This reduction can become more significant in case of temporal changing pore systems because of physisorption of water vapor, carbonation, or chemisorption. In this study, unstabilised earth blocks and earth masonry are investigated. In a first step, the pore size distribution of the blocks is measured and sorption isotherms are recorded in experiments. Besides the ordinary physisorption, the involved clay minerals undergo swelling or shrinking due to chemisorption. The following two effects must be considered: first, the reduction of the available pore space by the adsorbed water layer. For this, the Hillerborg sorption theory is used, which is a combination of the well-known Brunauer-Emmett-Teller sorption theory and the Kelvin equation. This allows the computation of adsorbed water layers even in curved pore geometries. Second, the variation of the initial pore size distribution due to chemisorption needs to be modelled. Based on these two models, the effective diffusion coefficient can be predicted. For validation, arrays of relative humidity sensors were embedded into a free-standing earth masonry wall. This monitoring was carried out over more than a year to have a broad variety of environmental conditions and was located in Berlin, Germany. The prediction of the effective diffusion coefficient can also be transferred to other processes and allows the investigation of materials having temporarily changing pore systems. Examples are the carbonation of cementitious materials, alkali silica reaction, calcium leaching of long-lasting structures, etc. This effect becomes most prominent in the meso-pore range and might alter the effective diffusion coefficient by more than 100 %.

Such experiments are carried out at the Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) and the structural response is investigated using several measuring methods. Complex load scenarios that occur as a result of reflection of the shock wave in larger structures are harder to realise in practice. Numerical simulations for the propagation of the shock wave and the structural response can therefore be an alternative method for the investigation of blast loads on complex structures. For the simulation of concrete under impact and blast loads, several local constitutive models exist that are formulated as plasticity models with softening taken into account by introducing a scalar damage field. Local damage models however often lead to mesh-dependent results which do not converge with mesh refinement. In order to achieve meaningful predictions from numerical experiments, independence from the mesh is needed. In this contribution, the JH2 model (Johnson and Holmquist 1994) with a parameter set for concrete is investigated in a simple blast load scenario. The shockwave is implemented as a simplified Friedlander-curve and the overpressures are applied as a boundary condition for the structural simulation. In order to account for large displacements that can occur during blast loads, an updated Lagrangian formulation is utilised. A Runge-Kutta method with adaptive time stepping is used to advance the solution in time. The open source FEM software FEniCS (Logg et al. 2012) is used together with an implementation of the JH2 model which has been developed at BAM. An extensive convergence analysis with both timestep- and mesh-refinement is carried out to show the mesh dependency. In order to make the results independent of the mesh, possible nonlocal versions of the JH2 model with gradient-enhancement are presented. Since many damage models for concrete share the damage mechanism of the JH2 model, the application of the regularisation methods to more complex material models, like the RHT model (Grunwald et al. 2017), is also discussed. Advantages of a gradient-enhanced formulation to simulate dynamic strength increase of concrete, as suggested in (Häußler-Combe and Kitzig 2009), is discussed as well.

A1 - Bartholmai, Matthias T1 - Towards Autonomous NDT Inspection: Setup and Validation of an Indoor Localization System N2 - Monitoring and maintenance of civil infrastructure are of great importance, as any undetected damage can cause high repair costs, unintended deadtime, or endanger structural integrity. The inspection of large concrete structures such as bridges and parking lots is particularly challenging and time-consuming. Traditional methods are mostly manual and involve mapping a grid of measurement lines to record the position of each measurement. Current semi-automated methods, on the other hand, use GPS or tachymeters for localization but still require trained personnel to operate. An entirely automated approach using mobile robots would be more cost- and time-efficient. While there have been developments in using GPS-enabled mobile robots for bridge inspection, the weak signal strength in indoor areas poses a challenge for the automated inspection of structures such as parking lots. This paper aims to develop a solution for the automated inspection of large indoor concrete structures by addressing the problem of robot localization in indoor spaces and the automated measurement of concrete cover and rebar detection.

As virtual representations of physical systems, digital twins can provide a wealth of information that complements traditional inspection and monitoring data. By incorporating virtual sensors and predictive maintenance strategies, they have the potential to improve our understanding of the behavior and performance of bridges over time. However, as bridges age and undergo regular loading and extreme events, their structural characteristics change, often differing from the predictions of their initial design. Digital twins must be continuously adapted to reflect these changes. In this article, we present a Bayesian framework for updating simulation-based digital twins in the context of bridges. Our approach integrates information from measurements to account for inaccuracies in the simulation model and quantify uncertainties. Through its implementation and assessment, this work demonstrates the potential for digital twins to provide a reliable and up-to-date representation of bridge behavior, helping to inform decision-making for maintenance and management.

T1 - Examining the efficacy of promising antioxidants to mitigate asphalt binder oxidation: Insights from a worldwide interlaboratory investigation N2 - Oxidative aging induces significant stiffening of asphalt binders that leads to a pronounced reduction in the overall durability of asphalt pavements. The strategic implementation of antioxidant additives provides a potential solution to alleviate this issue. This work presents results from the second phase of the global consortium for antioxidants research aimed at investigating the effectiveness of potential antioxidants in increasing the durability of asphalt binders. Sixteen laboratories around the world participated in this effort and a total of 28 binders from diverse geographical regions were tested. Two promising antioxidants, namely zinc diethyldithiocarbamate (ZDC) and kraft lignin were evaluated in this phase and blended with the binders at specific proportions. Subsequently, a comprehensive investigation was conducted to assess rheological characteristics and chemical properties of the various blends, utilising Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) measurements and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy. The findings indicate that additives such as ZDC hold considerable promise as an effective antioxidant, particularly when considering a wide diversity of binders. In general, its incorporation does not compromise the rutting performance of the binders and significantly improves fatigue performance. Therefore, research efforts should be focused on exploring additional facets to assess its practical applicability in field.

T1 - Evaluation of tools for describing, reproducing and reusing scientific workflows N2 - In the field of computational science and engineering, workflows often entail the application of various software, for instance, for simulation or pre- and postprocessing. Typically, these components have to be combined in arbitrarily complex workflows to address a specific research question. In order for peer researchers to understand, reproduce and (re)use the findings of a scientific publication, several challenges have to be addressed. For instance, the employed workflow has to be automated and information on all used software must be available for a reproduction of the results. Moreover, the results must be traceable and the workflow documented and readable to allow for external verification and greater trust. In this paper, existing workflow management systems (WfMSs) are discussed regarding their suitability for describing, reproducing and reusing scientific workflows. To this end, a set of general requirements for WfMSswere deduced from user stories that we deem relevant in the domain of computational science and engineering. On the basis of an exemplary workflow implementation, publicly hosted at GitHub (https:// this http URL), a selection of different WfMSs is compared with respect to these requirements, to support fellow scientists in identifying the WfMSs that best suit their requirements.

For this purpose, factor analysis and linear discriminant analysis are used to develop a statistical model based on the FTIR spectra of unaged bitumen samples, which can be used fast and simple in everyday laboratory work and allows to assign the bitumen to a low, moderate, or strong aging sensitivity. The evaluation of the aging sensitivity is based on the complex shear modulus|G* | and the phase angle δ from the measurement with a dynamic shear rheometer(DSR), whose aging-related changes were captured as the slope in the Black diagram. A relevant influence on the classification concerning the aging sensitivity has the oxygen-containing compounds(sulfoxide, hydroxyl and partly carbonyl compounds), whereby lower contents and thus less preaged bitumen tend to have a stronger aging sensitivity. However, in addition to the oxygen-containing compounds, the structure of the aliphatic and aromatic compounds and, in particular, the interaction of the different structures are decisive for the aging sensitivity KW - Bitumen KW - Ageing behaviour KW - Characterisation KW - FTIR KW - Multivariate analysis methods PY - 2023 DO - https://doi.org/10.1088/2631-8695/acdce0 SN - 2631-8695 VL - 5 IS - 2 SP - 1 EP - 14 PB - IOP Publishing AN - OPUS4-58020 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Schneider, Ronald T1 - Vibration-based system identification of a large steel box girder bridge N2 - The Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) collaborates with TNO to develop a software framework for automated calibration of structural models based on monitoring data. The ultimate goal is to include such models in the asset management process of engineering structures. As a basis for developing the framework, a multi-span road bridge consisting of ten simply supported steel box girders was selected as a test case. Our group measured output-only vibration data from one box girder under ambient conditions. From the data, we determined eigenfrequencies and mode shapes. In parallel, we developed a preliminary structural model of the box girder for the purpose of predicting its modal properties. In this contribution, we provide an overview of the measurement campaign, the operational modal analysis, the structural modeling and qualitatively compare the identified with the predicted modes. As an outlook, we discuss the further steps in the calibration process and future applications of the calibrated model.

Das hatte eine signifikante Reduzierung geeigneter Gesteinskörnungen zur Folge. Deshalb wird geprüft, ob durch die Zugabe eines Hydrophobierungsmittels während der Betonherstellung grenzwertig alkaliempfindliche Gesteinskörnungen nutzbar gemacht werden können. In diesem Beitrag wird der Einfluss der Dosierung eines Compounds mit Hydrophobierungsmittel (HM) auf die Frisch- und Festbetoneigenschaften eines Waschbetons mit einer reaktiven Grauwacke dargestellt. Es zeigt sich, dass aufgrund des Antagonismus die zunehmende Dosierung des HM-Compounds eine signifikante Erhöhung der Zugabe des Luftporenbildners auf Wurzelharzbasis erfordert. Der AKR-Schädigungsprozess wird ab einer Dosierung des HM-Compounds von 0,75 M.-%, bezogen auf den Zementgehalt, hinreichend vermindert. Die mechanischen Eigenschaften des hydrophobierten Waschbetons verschlechtern sich im betrachteten Dosierungsbereich des HMCompounds nur geringfügig. Auch der Frost-Tausalz-Widerstand vermindert sich, ohne den normativen Grenzwert für die Abwitterung zu überschreiten.

Uncertainties in the underlying physics and unknown parameters of such models can heavily impact their performance. Thus, to satisfy high precision and reliability requirements, the performance of such models is often validated using experimental data. In such model updating processes, uncertainties in the incoming measurements should be accounted for, as well. In this context, Bayesian methods have been recognized as a powerful tool for addressing different types of uncertainties. Quasi-brittle materials subjected to damage pose a further challenge due to the increased uncertainty and complexity involved in modeling crack propagation effects. In this respect, techniques such as Digital Image Correlation (DIC) can provide full-field displacement measurements that are able to reflect the crack path up to a certain accuracy. In this study, DIC-based full field measurements are incorporated into a finite element model updating approach, to calibrate unknown/uncertain parameters of an ansatz constitutive model. In contrast to the standard FEMU, where measured displacements are compared to the displacements from the FE model response, in the force-version of the standard FEMU, termed FEMU-F [1], displacements are applied as Dirichlet constraints. This enables the evaluation of the internal forces, which are then compared to measured external forces, thus quantifying the fulfillment of the momentum balance equation as a metric for the model discrepancy. In the present work, the FEMU-F approach is further equipped with a Bayesian technique that accounts for uncertainties in the measured displacements, as well. Via this modification, displacements are treated as unknown variables to be subsequently identified, while they are allowed to deviate from the measured values up to a certain measurement accuracy. To be able to identify many unknown variables; including constitutive parameters and the aforementioned displacements, the Variational Bayesian technique proposed in [2] is utilized as an approximative technique. A numerical example of a three-point bending case study is presented first to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The parameters of a gradient-enhanced damage material model [4] are identified using noisy synthetic data, and the effect of measurement noise is studied. The ability of the suggested approach on identifying constitutive parameters is then validated using real experimental data from a three-point bending test from [3]. The full field displacements required as input to the inference setup are extracted through a digital image correlation (DIC) analysis of the provided raw images.

As a prerequisite, those models need to be improved with respect to various uncertainties; most notably, concerning underlying physics assumptions and unknown parameters. This is very often accomplished by comparing the performance of a model (e.g. the model response) against available data measured from real experiments. Another challenge emerges in doing that, however, which is accounting for uncertainties of measured data. Bayesian methods have been widely considered and utilized as a suitable approach for coping with and quantifying the aforementioned uncertainties. Phenomena like damage - in particular in quasi-brittle materials - introduce further uncertainties due to the complexity underlying the crack propagation of phenomenon. This implies that, the fitting of a numerical model and an associated constitute law that can adequately describe such effects is non-trivial. The standard approach of finite element model updating (FEMU) is therefore modified to account for tracking of the crack propagation, as recorded during an experiment under increasing loading, via full field displacement measurements. The latter are fed as Dirichlet constraints to an available finite element model, leading to the evaluation of force residuals, which quantifies the accuracy of the model. This approach - which is known as FEMU-F (force-version of the standard FEMU) [1] - is here further equipped with a Bayesian technique, which accounts for the measurement uncertainties in the full field displacement. This is achieved by penalizing the discrepancy between the measured displacements and the modeled Dirichlet constraints, where the latter are considered as further unknowns. We specifically employ the Variational Bayesian technique, proposed in [2], as an approximating tool for the estimation of posterior parameters, including displacement variables that are allowed to deviate from the measurements. A Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) is also used for sampling the posterior distribution of the unknown model parameters. The model updating procedure is first demonstrated through a numerically simulated example of threepoint bending, where the parameters of a gradient-enhanced damage material model [4] are identified in accordance with synthetic noisy data (displacements and reaction forces). For the validation, experimental data from a three-point bending test are used, where full field displacements are collected through a digital image correlation (DIC) analysis (raw data taken from [3]). The data is then used for the parameter identification of a gradient damage constitutive law, which is employed as an ansatz model T2 - 5th International Conference on Uncertainty Quantification inUNCECOMP 2023 - Computational Science and Engineering CY - Athens, Greece DA - 12.06.2023 KW - Bayesian model updating KW - Full field measurements KW - Gradient damage model PY - 2023 AN - OPUS4-58287 LA - eng AD - Bundesanstalt fuer Materialforschung und -pruefung (BAM), Berlin, Germany ER - TY - CONF A1 - Johann, Sergej A1 - Stührenberg, Jan A1 - Tandon, Aditya A1 - Dragos, Kosmas A1 - Bartholmai, Matthias A1 - Strangfeld, Christoph A1 - Smarsly, Kay T1 - Implementation and validation of robot-enabled embedded sensors for structural health monitoring N2 - In the past decades, structural health monitoring (SHM) has matured into a viable supplement to regular inspections, facilitating the execution of repair and maintenance work in the early stages of structural damage.

Das Carbongelege besteht aus Carbonfasern in einer Kunststoffmatrix. Mit dieser Bauweise können dünnwandige und damit ressourcenschonende Deckenelemente realisiert werden. Der Wechsel von massiven zu filigranen und vergleichsweise leichten Bauteilen führt jedoch aufgrund der geringeren Masse und der damit einhergehenden schnelleren Erwärmung zu einer Abnahme des Feuerwiderstands. Ferner führt die Erweichung der Matrix im Brandfall zu einer Abnahme der Verbundfestigkeit zwischen Carbongelege und Beton. Die Brennbarkeit des Carbongeleges sowie die Abplatzneigung des verwendeten Feinbetons stellen weitere Herausforderungen für den baulichen Brandschutz dar. Der Beitrag stellt Versuchsergebnisse zum Abplatz- und Hochtemperaturverhalten von Carbonbeton vor, die im Rahmen des Verbundvorhabens „Vorgespannte Carbonbetondecken mit reduzierten Querschnitten“ (CaPreFloor) erzielt wurden. Für die Untersuchung der Tragfähigkeit bei hohen Temperaturen wurden 4-Punkt-Biegeversuche an balkenförmigen Prüfkörpern (150 x 30 x 6 cm³) mit einlagiger Carbonbewehrung und instationärer Temperaturbeanspruchung durchgeführt. Neben dem Vorspanngrad des Carbongeleges wurde auch der Gelegetyp variiert. Im Bereich der konstanten Biegezugzone erfolgt die einseitige Erwärmung mittels elektrisch betriebener Heizmatten. Während der kontinuierlichen Erwärmung werden die Prüfkörper mit einer konstanten Kraft belastet, deren Betrag aus zuvor durchgeführten Biegeversuchen bei Raumtemperatur abgeleitet wurde. Die Abplatzversuche werden mit Einheits-Temperaturzeitkurve an rechteckigen (60 x 60 x 6 cm³) und kreisrunden (Ø 47 x 6 cm³), plattenförmigen Prüfkörpern am 1m³-Ofen der BAM durchgeführt. Die kreisrunden Prüfkörper sind zusätzlich mit einem Stahlring zur Behinderung der thermischen Dehnung des Betons versehen. Um den Einfluss des Geleges auf das Abplatzverhalten zu analysieren, werden sowohl Prüfkörper mit Carbongelege als auch unbewehrte Prüfkörper untersucht. Die daraus resultierenden Erkenntnisse fließen in die weitere Entwicklung der vorgespannten Carbonbetondeckenelemente ein. Anhand von realmaßstäblichen Brandversuchen wird der Feuerwiderstand dieser Bauteile im weiteren Projektverlauf bestimmt.

By integrating a digital lab twin with AI-driven approaches, SLAMD supports and significantly accelerates the discovery of optimal material compositions within complex parameter spaces, while considering eco-efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Its versatility and practical relevance are demonstrated through diverse applications: SLAMD is being used to develop two classes of concrete incorporating recycled materials, each with unique requirements and constraints imposed by regulations and industry standards. The first application focuses on optimizing compressive strength with at least 30 % substitution of the CEM II binder using a mix of recycled glass powder and concrete fines. The second targets the formulation of concrete for five exposure classes, exceeding the regulatory limit of 50 % recycled aggregates while meeting all performance criteria. Besides finding new concrete mixes with a higher percentage of recycling materials in their composition, these demonstration cases aim also to spread the use of SLAMD as a tool for industry stakeholders. In collaboration with the industrial partner Holcim (Germany) GmbH, SLAMD accelerated the development process of concrete with high carbonation resistance by a factor of 80 %. This success was further enhanced by incorporating NMR features from non-carbonated sister samples at only 28 days of age, revealing additional acceleration potential [2]. Currently, the integration of non-destructive testing methods, such as Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy, is being explored to further shorten development cycles. Another example is the use of SLAMD within the Volkswagen Foundation-funded project "Circular B-IO," where it is adapted and applied to optimize the heterogeneous material flow of recycled substances. By creating homogenized supply streams, SLAMD contributes to the reliable production of low-carbon concrete in Kenya, enabling more sustainable construction practices. Looking ahead, SLAMD may be used to address a wide range of material-related challenges. Through its ability to navigate complex datasets and identify promising solutions efficiently, it opens new opportunities for advancing material design, accelerating innovation, and promoting sustainability.

For an accurate representation of the bridge, the underlying models must be tuned to reproduce the real system. The updated model can be eventually used for the extension of the service life of the bridge based on an accurate description of the structure. Nevertheless, the necessary assumptions and simplifications in these models irremediably introduce discrepancies between measurements and model response. We will prove that quantifying the extent of the uncertainties generated by said discrepancies provides a better understanding of the real system, enhances the model updating process, and creates more robust and trustworthy digital twins. Among others, we identify that the inclusion of the explicit bias term through a Bayesian inference framework corrects the tuned parameters, allows the identification of non-prescribed noise sources and enables the introduction of additional information in the system without modifying the simulation model. The performance of selected model bias identification approaches will be compared in the context of digital twins of bridges. The different methods will be applied to a representative demonstrator case based on the Nibelungenbrücke of Worms. The findings from this work are englobed in the initiative SPP 100+, whose main aim is the extension of the service life of structures through monitorization and digitalization, especially through the implementation of digital twins.

This allows the reduction of common steel reinforced concrete floors of 30 cm thickness to 10 cm for office, residential, and hotel buildings. Lower material consumption significantly contributes to the conservation of resources and minimises the carbon footprint. In addition, the prefabrication of these floor elements leads to high and consistent quality, short construction times and enhanced reusability of the components.

T1 - Effects of rejuvenators on bitumen ageing during simulated cyclic reuse: A review N2 - Single reuse of asphalt is an approved practice, but its success highly depends on restoring the properties of the aged binder. Rejuvenators have become increasingly important for softening the binder because they make it possible to increase the amount of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) while reducing the dependence on virgin bitumen. The vital questions to be investigated are how the rejuvenators affect the ageing properties of bitumen and if rejuvenators offer the possibility of cyclic bitumen reuse. The main objective of this publication is to present the current state of the art regarding the effects of rejuvenators on bitumen ageing. The results of laboratory life cycle simulations indicate that repetitive ageing and rejuvenation processes are possible, but reuse mainly depends on the rejuvenator type and its interaction with the respective bitumen sample. There are rejuvenators that have good rejuvenating properties but accelerate subsequent ageing, which is essential to consider when evaluating a rejuvenator. Bitumen rejuvenated with petroleum-based products, such as aromatic extracts, performs slightly better after subsequent ageing than when rejuvenated with bio-based products. As there are a limited number of studies simulating cyclic bitumen reuse, more studies are necessary to evaluate the general limits of bitumen reuse.

A1 - Unger, Jörg F. T1 - Evaluation of Model Bias Identification Approaches Based on Bayesian Inference and Applications to Digital Twins N2 - In recent years, the use of simulation-based digital twins for monitoring and assessment of complex mechanical systems has greatly expanded. Their potential to increase the information obtained from limited data makes them an invaluable tool for a broad range of real-world applications. Nonetheless, there usually exists a discrepancy between the predicted response and the measurements of the system once built. One of the main contributors to this difference in addition to miscalibrated model parameters is the model error. Quantifying this socalled model bias (as well as proper values for the model parameters) is critical for the reliable performance of digital twins. Model bias identification is ultimately an inverse problem where information from measurements is used to update the original model. Bayesian formulations can tackle this task. Including the model bias as a parameter to be inferred enables the use of a Bayesian framework to obtain a probability distribution that represents the uncertainty between the measurements and the model. Simultaneously, this procedure can be combined with a classic parameter updating scheme to account for the trainable parameters in the original model. This study evaluates the effectiveness of different model bias identification approaches based on Bayesian inference methods. This includes more classical approaches such as direct parameter estimation using MCMC in a Bayesian setup, as well as more recent proposals such as stat-FEM or orthogonal Gaussian Processes. Their potential use in digital twins, generalization capabilities, and computational cost is extensively analyzed.

Alle untersuchten Systeme unterliegen mit der Zeit einer zunehmenden anodischen Hemmung infolge der Bildung von Korrosionsprodukten. Diese erhöhen den Diffusionswiderstand im Phasengrenzbereich und haben dort einen signifikanten Einfluss auf die thermodynamischen Gleichgewichtsbedingungen, infolge derer die Eigenkorrosion über die Zeit ebenfalls abnimmt. Die Installation der Systeme A1, A2 sowie C bei höheren Bauteilfeuchten kann zur Vermeidung des sogenannten Anodenringeffektes verwendet werden. Eine Modellbildung für eine effektive Nutzungsdauer kann unter Hinzuziehung der ermittelten elektrochemischen Parameter nicht zielführend erfolgen. Nutzungsdauern von 1 bis 2 Jahren können grundlegend mit den Anodensystemen A1, A2 und C erreicht werden, hierzu müssen aber ausreichend hohe Bauteilfeuchten gewährleistet werden. Die theoretischen Lebensdauern aus der numerischen Simulation der galvanischen Elemente berücksichtigen eine Änderung der anodischen Teilstromdichte über die Zeit nicht und gehen von ungehemmten, aktiv korrodierenden Anoden aus. Eine Reduktion der Korrosionsaktivität wird äquivalent durch den Anstieg des Polarisationswiderstandes gespiegelt und zeigt, dass die Systeme in ihrer Lebensdauer auf Basis einer zunehmenden, deckschichtbasierten, anodischen Hemmung limitiert sind. Die Bauteilfeuchten haben grundlegend einen signifikanten Einfluss auf die Korrosionsaktivität und die daraus resultierende Effektivität der verbauten Anoden. Der höhere Ladungsumsatz führt jedoch auch zwangsläufig zu einer beschleunigten Deckschichtbildung, was im Umkehrschluss zu einem vorzeitigen Versagen der Anodensystem gegenüber dem Einsatz unter geringeren Bauteilfeuchten führen kann. Auf Basis der Ergebnisse aus den Arbeitspaketen muss festgehalten werden, dass das Ziel des Forschungsvorhabens nur teilweise erreicht wurde. Hybride Anodensysteme, die unter Fremdstrombetrieb agieren, konnten mangels Verfügbarkeit nicht untersucht werden. Einbettmörtel der Hersteller konnten nicht untersucht werden, die pastösen Einbettmittel haben aufgrund der schlechten Performance in Wechselwirkung mit den Anoden keinen Anlass gegeben, diese weitergehenden Untersuchungen zu unterziehen.

Havel N2 - Die B 1-Brücke am Altstädter Bahnhof war der wichtigste Verkehrsknotenpunkt in Brandenburg an der Havel. Im Dezember 2019 wurden die überführte Bundesstraße und die Straßenbahnlinie für den Verkehr gesperrt. Grund für die Sperrung war eine einsetzende Rissbildung in den Längsträgerstegen in Verbindung mit Hohlstellen, die letztlich auf gerissene Spanndrähte zurückgeführt werden. Um eine Sperrung der hoch frequentierten unterführten Verkehrswege zu verhindern, wurde ein umfangreiches Überwachungskonzept erforderlich. Wesentlicher Bestandteil dieses Konzepts war ein auf der Schallemissionsanalyse basierendes Monitoringsystem, mit dessen Hilfe Spanndrahtbrüche aufgezeichnet und lokalisiert werden konnten. Auf Grundlage der so gewonnenen Ergebnisse konnten Schwerpunkte für die Bauwerksprüfung abgeleitet werden. In diesem Bericht werden die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse zum messtechnisch erfassten Schadensfortschritt und den damit verbundenen visuell festgestellten Schäden beschrieben. Dabei werden die Besonderheit des verbauten konzentrierten Spannglieds (Spannblockverfahren nach TGL 173-33) und des Spannstahls in Bezug auf die Schadensbilder dargestellt. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse sollten bei der Beurteilung anderer Bauwerke mit vergleichbarer Bauart berücksichtigt werden.

Laboratory Tests can assess the durability of SSG-systems based on mechanical characteristics of the bond after simultaneous exposure to both climatic and mechanical loads. This article studies how the material characteristics of two common structural sealants are affected by laboratory and field exposure. Dynamic mechanical Analysis (DMA) confirms a reduction in the dynamic modulus of exposed Silicone samples. Results from thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, differential scanning calorimetry, and small-angle X-ray scattering/wide-angle X-ray scattering show differences between the two sealants and indicate no/minor changes in the composition and morphology of the laboratory and field exposed sealants. Mechanical characterization methods, such as DMA, and tensile and shear testing of the structural bond, are shown to be sensitive toward the combined climatic and mechanical loadings, and are hence suitable for studying degradation mechanisms of structural sealants.

Helical wrapping of the sensing fiber directly around the pipeline is used to increase the system sensitivity for detection of weak leak-induced vibrations. DAS measurements are supplemented with reference accelerometer data to facilitate analysis and interpretation of recorded vibration signals. The results reveal that a DAS system using direct fiber application approach is capable of detecting pipeline natural vibrations excited by the broadband noise generated by the leaking medium. In the performed experiment, pipeline vibration modes with acceleration magnitudes down to single ug were detected. Simple leak detection approach based on spectral integration of time-averaged DAS signals in frequency domain was proposed. Potential benefits and limitations of the presented monitoring Approach were discussed with respect to its practical applicability. We demonstrated that the approached is potentially capable of detection and localization of gas pipeline leaks with leak rates down to 0.1% of the pipeline flow volume and might be of interest for monitoring of short- and medium-length gas pipelines.

A1 - Ebell, Gino A1 - Völker, Tobias A1 - Küttenbaum, Stefan T1 - Testing to reassess – Corrosion activity assessment based on NDT using a prestressed concrete bridge as case-study N2 - Corrosion of concrete reinforcement is one of the major damage mechanisms affecting both the load-bearing capacity and the serviceability of re-inforced concrete structures significantly. When externally discernible damages are observed during visual inspections on the structure, the extent of the damage inside the concrete is often already significant. Corrosion caused by carbonation often leads to severe discoloration of the surface or even large-area spalling of the concrete cover. In contrast, chloride-induced corrosion is usually difficult to observe visually but can cause much more serious damage in less time. The effect occurs locally and can lead to weakening of the cross-section of the reinforce-ment. This, in turn, can cause sudden structural collapses without prior notice. In the meanwhile, various non-destructive and minimally invasive testing methods are available to evaluate the resistance to penetration of corrosion-pro-moting pollutants and to detect active corrosion. In this paper, a bridge crossing the river Regen is used as a case-study to demonstrate how the information ob-tained applying different testing methods can be combined and evaluated in the context of structural reassessments. Both the results of the permeability testing and the electrical resistance measurement are considered, as well as active corro-sion areas are localized using the half-cell potential mapping combined with the concrete cover measurement with the eddy current method and ground penetrat-ing radar. The results are evaluated using drill cores and in addition laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy was applied to obtain information about possible chlo-ride ion transport into the concrete.

Ideally, the exposé forms the basis for the subsequent dissertation. The candidates topic is about hydrogen-induced stress corrosion cracking (HiSCC) of prestressing steels, which is a significant concern in civil engineering, particularly for prestressed concrete roofs and bridges. The susceptibility of prestressing steels to HiSCC is mainly influenced by manufacturing processes and the chemical composition, while the ability to hydrogen charging is influenced by the environmental and surface conditions. To know about the real nature of susceptibility of the prestressing steel might be an important puzzle piece to contribute to safe prestressed concrete structures in the future. The material susceptibility of prestressing steels toward HiSCC is a topic which must be studied independently of the environmental conditions. This cumulative dissertation will focus on the most important aspects of material properties that play a role in the initiation point of HiSCC.

T1 - Introduction to DIN 4871: Qualification of NDT Personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT‐CE) N2 - Recently, non-destructive testing in civil engineering (NDT-CE), in particular of concrete components, has successfully mastered the leap from research to practice. Several methods have been established for field inspections to determine the concrete cover of reinforcement or to estimate the compressive strength as well as other parameters related to the concrete material. In addition, the application of non-destructive testing is indispensable, if information about the inner structure - such as the location of rebars and tendon ducts or the damage-related condition assessment to detect grouting defects, honeycombs, delamination, or corrosion - is required. Besides the selection of a suitable NDT method and an appropriate inspection system, the reliability of the results depends largely on the person who applies the non-destructive inspection technique and evaluates the inspection results. To ensure a high quality of non-destructive concrete evaluation as well as to keep the uncertainty caused by the inspection personnel to a minimum, structured, consistent, and regulated theoretical as well as practical training of inspection personnel is essential. To close this gap, the subcommittee of education and training (UA-A) within the committee for NDT-CE of the German Society for Non-Destructive Testing (DGZfP) has been reactivated in 2018 to establish uniform training standards for non-destructive concrete inspections in the long term. The subcommittee consists of scientists, practitioners, authorities, and clients. So far, the national standard DIN 4871 “Non-destructive testing - Qualification of NDT personnel in Civil Engineering (NDT-CE)” was developed. This standard considers the civil-industry-specifics, for example, that standards for NDT of concrete, as well as related product standards with a few exceptions, still do not exist at the moment. Within this presentation, the concept, the connection to ISO 9712 and other standards as well as an overview of the recently developed German standard DIN 4871 will be presented.

But in the case of existing structures, it could be necessary to ensure their safety through special kinds of investigations. Those kinds of investigations are often not applicable in a non-destructive way. Therefore, a once in a lifetime project was initiated. In the course of the deconstruction of the "Bridge of the 20th anniversary of the GDR" at the Altstädter Bahnhof in Brandenburg a. d. Havel, new information on the initiation of hydrogen-induced stress cracks could obtained. The initial observation to do several investigations at this bridge are several meters long longitudinal cracks in the concrete web of the box girder above and below the tension duct. The BAM was commissioned by the Brandenburg State Road Administration to participate in a corresponding joint project which is financed by the Federal Ministry for Digital and Transport. The added value of the new information gained in this project goes beyond the specific structure. It describes unexpected new damage patterns that can be transferred to other structures with concentrated tendons (tendon block method and Baur-Leonhardt method) and were previously unknown in this form. These should be made known to other developers to enable them to initiate any necessary actions. One of the major results is, the wire breaks observed at this bridge can be attributed to cracking as a result of HSCC and subsequent crack growth until breakage, due to cyclic loading from traffic and alternating restraint stresses. The probable trigger here was crevice corrosion processes at the contact points of the wires to the spacer plates in superposition with high tensile stresses due to prestressing after or with in grouting the duct. Tension wire breaks, which may have occurred before grouting and during prestressing, were not detected. The unfavorable gap situation at the spacer plates occurs over the entire cross-section of the prestressing channel and can thus affect each individual prestressing wire. Losses in the load-bearing capacity of the prestressed concrete structure can then be the result. A disadvantage of the prestressing block method in this respect is that a large number of individual wires can be affected at the same time (theoretically all wires), which can reduce the prestressing effect of the concentrated tendon accordingly. With the usual use of only one tendon per web, the possibility of load transfer to other tendons is thus not given (lack of redundancy).

This integration aims to achieve accurate ‘as-is’ analysis within a digital twin framework. Bayesian model updating combines prior knowledge and data with models to enhance the modelling accuracy while consistently handling uncertainties. When updating large engineering models, numerical methods for Bayesian analysis present significant computational challenges due to the need for a substantial number of likelihood evaluations. The novelty of this contribution is to parallelize adaptive Bayesian Updating with Structural reliability methods combined with subset simulation (aBUS) to improve its computational efficiency. To demonstrate the efficiency and practical applicability of the proposed approach, we present a case study on the Maintalbrücke Gemünden, a large railway bridge. We leverage modal property data to update a linear-elastic dynamic structural model of the bridge. The parallelized aBUS approach significantly reduces computational time, making Bayesian updating of large engineering models feasible within reasonable timeframes. The improved efficiency allows for a wider implementation of Bayesian model updating in structural health monitoring and maintenance decision support systems.

Galvanic currents flow between the zinc anode and the steel reinforcement due to the potential difference that is in the range of a few hundred mV. The ion distribution was studied on two steel reinforced concrete specimens admixed with 3 wt.% chloride/wt. cement and galvanically protected by a surface applied EZ-anode. On both specimens, a zinc anode was embedded and glued to the concrete surface by a geo-polymer-based chloride-free binder. At one specimen, the EZ-anode was operated for 2,5 years, the EZ-anode at the other specimen was not electrically connected to the reinforcement, this specimen serves as a reference. Both specimens have been stored under identical conditions. The ion distribution between the anode (EZ-anode) and cathode (steel reinforcement) was studied by laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) after 7 months, 12 months, and 2,5 years. Results of the LIBS studies on the specimen with activated EZ-anode after 7 months, 12 months, and 2,5 years and of the reference specimen after 2,5 years are reported. Results show that diffusion of ions contributes to the changes in the ion distribution but migration, especially of chlorides towards the EZ-anode is significant despite the weak electric field – several hundred millivolts - generated by the galvanic current. Results show that chloride ions accumulate near the zinc-anode as in water-insoluble zinc-hydroxy chlorides - Simonkolleit.

TFE belongs to the group of chemically instable gases which are able to decompose under specific conditions releasing a huge amount of heat comparable to a gas explosion of flammable gases. Due to several incidents in PTFE – production plants the investigation of the safety related properties of TFE at elevated condition was necessary and resulted in a research project at BAM which is subsidized by the PlasticsEurope association. In a first stage the pressure dependence of the Minimum Ignition Temperature for Decomposition (MITD) was determined in the range of 0.5 MPa - 3 MPa in small autoclaves with volumes of 0.2 dm³ and 3 dm³. These results were used to validate the numerical model and were found to correlate quite well with the simulated values. Nevertheless the applicability had to be confirmed for larger volumes as well. Therefore a heat able 100-dm³-autoclave was constructed and build to determine the MITD in the range of 0.5 MPa to 1.1 MPa.

The susceptibility of prestressing steels to HiSCC is mainly influenced by manufacturing processes and the chemical composition, while the ability to hydrogen charging is by the environmental and surface conditions. To know about the real nature of susceptibility of the prestressing steel might be an important puzzle piece to contribute to safe prestressed concrete structures in the future. The material susceptibility of prestressing steels toward HiSCC is a topic which must be studied independently of the environmental conditions. This cumulative dissertation will focus on the most important aspects of material properties that play a role in the initiation point of HiSCC.

Areas of corroding reinforcement steel can be located in a non-destructive manner by means of this procedure. Half‐cell potential measurements are used in order to detect chloride‐induced corrosion. However, it is not recommended in order to assess the risk of carbonation‐induced corrosion. For this purpose, determining the carbonation depth and the concrete cover appears more appropriate. The content of this specification exclusively refers to the application of mobile, local variable reference electrodes, which are only placed on the concrete surface while measuring. The technique distinguishes itself thereby from the range of corrosion monitoring systems with stationary installed reference electrodes and sensor systems, respectively, whereby it is possible to continuously track measurements within the area of the installed electrodes.

We are concerned with the question of which corrosivity categories for Fe-sheets can be found at an offshore wind turbine and where they are comparable with our offshore locations. The preliminary results indicate that the extreme corrosivity of class CX is only given in splash water-affected exposure, which is not a real atmospheric exposure condition. The results of the exposure at the SP show that the corrosivity category changes into C4, only a few meters above the splash water zone. Compared to the marine environments at Helgoland or OSS-Platform, the corrosivity is higher. The offshore environment is not as corrosive as originally expected, no atmospheric corrosion attack could be determined that would form the corrosivity category C5.

Entgegen üblichen Spannbetonkonstruktionen mit kleinen Bündelspanngliedern kamen beim Haupttragwerk in Längsrich­tung großformatige Spannblockspannglieder zum Einsatz. Im Fall der vorliegenden Brücke setzte sich das Spannglied aus 392 ovalen Einzeldrähten aus Hennigsdorfer Produktion zusam­men, welche als spannungsrisskorrosionsgefährdet gelten. Bei Bauwerkserkundungen wurde ein hoher Versprödungsgrad der Spannstähle festgestellt, sodass die Brücke am 19.05.2021 ge­sprengt werden musste. Zuvor traten im Bereich detektierter Spanndrahtbrüche von außen erkennbare Längsrisse in den Stegen anstatt von üblicherweise quer gerichteten Biegerissen an der gezogenen Randfaser auf. Die abweichende Schadens­äußerung im Falle einer Spannstahlschädigung brachte das Bundesministerium für Digitales und Verkehr (BMDV) dazu, weitergehende Untersuchungen durchzuführen. In Zusammen­arbeit mit dem Landesbetrieb Straßenwesen Brandenburg, der Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft Dresden sowie der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und ­prüfung (BAM) wur­den experimentelle Untersuchungen in­situ konzipiert und durchgeführt. Im Konkreten wurde an zwei Messstellen eine gezielte Schädigung des großformatigen Spannglieds vorge­nommen, um das zuvor vorgefundene Schadensbild nach­zuvoll ziehen und validieren zu können.

T1 - A parallel GPU-based computational framework for the micromechanical analysis of geotechnical and erosion problems N2 - This article deals with the relevance and practical feasibility of micromechanical simulations for their application to general geomechanical problems involving fluid-saturated granular assemblies, whether frictional or cohesive. A set of conceptual and numerical tools is here presented, advocating for a parallel computation using graphical processing units (GPUs) to treat large numbers of degrees of freedom with conventional Desktop computers. The fluid phase is here simulated with a particle-resolved approach in the frame of the Lattice Botzmann Method (LBM) while the granular solid phase is modelled as a collection of discrete particles from a Molecular Dynamics DEM perspective. The range of possible material behaviours for the solid granular phase is intended here to cover a broad spectrum from purely frictional to viscous cohesive materials with either brittle or transient debonding features. Specific details of the implementation and some validation cases are put forward. Finally, some exemplary applications in the fields of soil erosion and geotechnical profile installation are provided along with a discussion on the parallel performance of the presented models. The results show that a micromechanical approach can be feasible and useful in practice, providing meaningful insights into complex engineering problems like the erosion kinetics of a soil under an impinging jet or the penetration resistance of a deep foundation in a layered soil profile.

If all mechanical parameters of the system were known, the displacement of the system subjected to this load could be easily calculated. However, the monitoring applications often deal with the inverse problem. The loads and displacements of the system are known and certain mechanical Parameters of the system are sought. The solution of such inverse problems can be difficult, especially when they have a nonlinear and multimodal character, which often makes them appear intractable at first sight. However, evolutionary computing can be applied to solve this inverse, nonlinear and multimodal problem. Sometimes a prior knowledge exists on certain system properties, which is difficult to implement into analytical or numerical solvers. This knowledge can play a decisive role in identifying the System properties and it can be easily included as a boundary condition when applying evolutionary algorithms. This article discusses how and under what conditions the unknown spring resistances can be identified. The practical application of this procedure is exemplified here with the mechanical system of a pile foundation.

The challenge of detecting corrosion is that the corrosion process in its various forms is not immediately visible, especially in the corrosion initiation phase inside the concrete. When externally discernible damages are observed during visual inspections on the structure, the extent of the damage inside the concrete is often already significant. Corrosion caused by carbonation often leads to severe discoloration of the surface or even large-area spalling of the concrete cover. In contrast, chloride-induced corrosion is usually difficult to observe visually, but can cause much more serious damage in less time. The effect occurs locally and can lead to weakening of the cross-section of the reinforcement. This, in turn, can cause sudden structural collapses without prior notice. Therefore, it is important to investigate whether there is protection against corrosion of the reinforcement in the concrete and to detect active corrosion in the structure at an early stage. In the meanwhile, various non-destructive and minimally invasive testing methods are available to evaluate the resistance to penetration of corrosion-promoting pollutants and to detect active corrosion. In this paper, a bridge crossing the river Regen (Germany) is used as a case-study to demonstrate how the information obtained applying different testing methods can be combined and evaluated in the context of structural reassessments. Both the results of the permeability testing (Torrent tester) and the electrical resistance measurement (Wenner probe) are considered, as well as active corrosion areas are localized using the half-cell potential mapping combined with the concrete cover measurement with the eddy current method and ground penetrating radar (GPR). The results are evaluated using drill cores and in addition laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) was applied to obtain information about possible ion transport in the concrete.

T1 - A generalized plasticity model adapted for shearing interface problems N2 - The response of many geotechnical systems, whose structural behavior depends on shearing effect, is closely related to soil structure interaction phenomenon. Experimentally it is found that the localisation of these effect happens at a narrow soil layer next to the structure. Numerically, this behavior can be modelled through inter-face elements and adequate constitutive models. In this work, a constitutive model in the framework of Gen-eralized Plasticity for sandy soils has been chosen to be adapted for the interface zone. From the direct shear experiments a sandy soil at loose and dense states under different normal pressures is considered. The adapted constitutive model is able to reproduce contraction and dilatation of the soil according to its relative density and it shows a good agreement with the experimental data.

T1 - The dgzfp Subcommittee „Corrosion Detection in Reinforced Concrete“ N2 - The subcommittee “Corrosion Detection in Reinforced Concrete” is a technical committee within the scope of the German Society for Non-Destructive Testing (DGZfP). The international working group consists of engineers and scientists from Germany, Austria and Switzerland who work at research institutes or engineering firms and aims for the practical implementation of non-destructive testing in civil engineering (NDT-CE) methods to assess the corrosion condition of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Therefore, the group works on technical specifications that explain the necessary theoretical background of the presented techniques but mainly provide helpful instructions for the application on-site and in the laboratory. Based on the corrosion process of steel in concrete the specifications focus on selected topics where the field engineer is getting into contact with the phenomenon. Therefore, specification B 12 highlights corrosion monitoring in reinforced and prestressed concrete structures and presents different approaches to monitor the initiation and propagation phase of corrosion and shows case studies of where these techniques were applied successfully. Specification B 03 deals with the potential-mapping technique. In addition to this specification, practical training courses and certification in this method have been developed and are offered by the working group members and are organized by the DGZfP. Both specifications, B 03 as well as B 12, are available in English. In the case of specification B 03, the current version is still in the translation process and will be available soon. Currently, the group is working on a new specification for measuring the electrical resistivity of cementitious materials, for example, to evaluate the suitability of mortars for cathodic protection applications and to validate the influence of the concrete resistivity with regard to corrosion processes of steel in concrete. Given the increasing impact of corrosion damages on infrastructural structures, the working group would like to introduce the use of the mentioned specifications to an interested international audience and thus offer the possibility to reliably detect corrosion damages at an early stage to prevent significant damages or high repair costs on RC structures.

To this end, the fundamentals of the technology fields of hydrogen production, storage, transport, and application are presented and the state of the art of manufacturing of components for hydrogen technologies by joining is summarized. Based on representative examples from practice, research and development, the importance of joining technology in hydrogen technologies is clearly highlighted and perspectives for the future are derived. From a macroeconomic perspective, the focal points, or trends of joining technologies here include: the erection of new infrastructure for hydrogen storage and transport, and the safe conversion of existing natural gas infrastructure and its challenges for welded materials. In addition, we show the problems that are anticipated with in-service repair welding of hydrogen pipelines. In hydrogen applications, the efficient mass production of fuel cells and electrolysers is becoming increasingly important. For that reason, the importance of additive manufacturing is highlighted. Finally, the challenges for technical regulations and standardization by using hydrogen are shown.

Die Verarbeitungsregelwerke empfehlen das lokale thermische Ausfugen betroffener Bereiche und erneutes Schweißen, geben aber aufgrund fehlender wissenschaftlich fundierter Untersuchungen kaum Informationen zu adäquaten Reparaturkonzepten. Dies betrifft insbesondere die Berücksichtigung und Optimierung resultierender schweißbedingter Beanspruchungen durch hohe Schrumpfbehinderungen der Ausfugenuten sowie der Gefügedegradation angrenzender Bereiche durch das Ausfugen und erneute Schweißen. Gerade bei hochfesten Stahlgüten ergeben sich dadurch häufig reduzierte mechanische Eigenschaften und zusätzliche schweißbedingte Beanspruchungen sowie erneut auftretende Nahtdefekte. Deshalb sind für das Forschungsvorhaben systematische bauteilrelevante Untersuchungen der schweißbedingten Beanspruchungen und Gefügeveränderungen reparierter Schweißnähte in Abhängigkeit von der Schrumpfbehinderung und Wärmeführung beim Schweißen und Ausfugen sowie von der Reparaturzyklenanzahl geplant, mit dem Ziel Empfehlungen für beanspruchungs- und werkstoffgerechte Reparaturkonzepte abzuleiten.

Here we review first the hydrodynamical conditions imposed by the fluid jet on a solid granular packing, turning then the attention to the impact of cohesion on the erosion kinetics. Finally, the use of an additional subcritical debonding damage model based on the work of Silvani and co-workers provides a novel insight into the internal solicitation of the cohesive granular sample by the impinging jet.

Catastrophic earth-dam failures and large sinkholes are just some of the possible outcomes of the different forms of erosion (a.o. surface erosion, suffusion, piping, backwards erosion, etc…). However, little is known about the actual mechanical origins of erosion, while the assessment of erodibility is generally performed by means of experimental tests and empirical correlations. Here we provide a general overview of some current research models aiming to clarify the micromechanical phenomena and their macromechanical consequences taking place in different erosion scenarios. The employed numerical techniques rely on the coupling of two well-stablished particle methods for the fluid and solid phases, namely the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) and the Discrete Element Method (DEM) respectively. Further ingredients of our numerical models include an elastoplastic cohesion model for intergranular solid bridges and a subcritical debonding model for the simulation of transient damage processes within the soil matrix.

In this research project, we are developing a design approach aiming to predict the ideal amount and properties of a grout for a specific soil situation and desired improvement of pile bearing capacity after Installation and during service time. Both numerical and experimental tests have been carried out to investigate the injection process during which a highly viscous grout is injected into the soil under high pressure to displace and compact the surrounding soil without fracturing it. The implicit Material Point Method (MPM) based on a mixed formulation is the numerical technique chosen to deal with the expected large deformations and the arbitrary shape of the developing grout bulb. The usage of MPM prevents both the need of remeshing and the numerical instability induced by extensive mesh distortion. For validation with experimental results, we have constructed a testing chamber with one transparent sidewall. This chamber enables us to observe the injection process directly at the transparent vertical window and to measure the in-plane soil displacements and strains by means of the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique. The results already reveal the interrelation of soil and grout properties for a successful usage of this common ground improvement technique.

In reinforced concrete structures the measured potentials are not necessarily directly linked to the corrosion likelihood of the reinforcing steel. The measured values may be significantly affected, different from, e.g., stress measurement, by different influences on the potential formation at the phase boundary metal/concrete itself as well as the acquisition procedure. Due to the complexity of influencing factors there is a risk that the results are misinterpreted. Therefore, in a training concept firstly the theoretical basics of the test method should be imparted. Then, frequently occurring practical situations of various influencing factors will be made accessible to the participants by a model object specially designed for this purpose. The aim is to impart profound knowledge concerning the characteristics of potential mapping for detecting corrosion of reinforcing steel in order to apply this technique in practice as reliable and economical test method.

The first lecture presents a brief introduction to the context and peculiarities of such foundations, and then focuses on the particular case of axially loaded piles. This part is most relevant for the relatively slender piles of the multi-pile substructures (i.e. jackets and tripods). A clear distinction between physical phenomenology and practical design is drawn here. The second lecture continues with the case of lateraly loaded offshore piles, which bears most relevance for the case of the monopile foundations. Here again, a clear separation between physical reality and design methods is intended. Finally, the last part of the second lecture introduces several advanced topics which lie outside the classical design approaches, namely the cyclic pile fatigue and the so-called pile setup (i.e. the time effects on the axial pile capacity). The relevance of these two topics is illustrated with experimental results from a field testing campaign on real large-scale piles. T2 - Masters course on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering.

Some geomechanical issues for the foundation of OWTs into the seabed are introduced, while the results from experimental investigations and coupled computational analysis are discussed. In the second part of the seminar, the hydromechanical Wave–Tower interaction is firstly discussed. Then, some general aspects of the windfarm aerodynamics are introduced. On the one hand, some modelling possibilities for the wake analysis of single turbines and turbine groups are discussed. And on the other hand the relevance of such analyses for a proper windfarm layout optimization is pointed out. Concerning the geomechanical issues the talk shows that: i) The pile’s bearing capacity can degrade under cyclic loading (waves, wind, …). ii) The time effects can be relevant: Capacity improvement can be substantial, but also fragile. iii) There are cyclic PWP effects: Cyclic interaction with pore water may lead to soil softening and an uncoupled analysis (current design practice) is potentially unsafe. And concerning the hydromechanical and aerodynamical design considerations, this seminar shows that: i) Numerical analysis of turbine’s interaction with wind/waves is useful and affordable. ii) Simplified models can provide insight into windfarm aerodynamics. iii) Turbulent wake analysis is very relevant for the windfarm layout.

N2 - In this paper, we present an autonomous aerial robot to reconstruct tomographic 2D slices of gas plumes in outdoor environments. Our platform, the so-called Unmanned Aerial Vehicle for Remote Gas Sensing (UAV-REGAS) combines a lightweight Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) sensor with a 3-axis aerial stabilization gimbal for aiming on a versatile octocopter. The TDLAS sensor provides integral gas concentration measurements but no information regarding the distance traveled by the laser diode's beam or the distribution of the gas along the optical path. We complemented the set-up with a laser rangefinder and apply principles of Computed Tomography (CT) to create a model of the spatial gas distribution from these integral concentration measurements. To allow for a rudimentary ground truth evaluation of the applied gas tomography algorithm, we set up a unique outdoor test environment based on two 3D ultrasonic anemometers and a distributed array of 10 infrared gas transmitters. We present first results showing the 2D plume reconstruction capabilities of the system under realistic conditions.

T1 - Numerical modeling of erosion of cohesive granular material by a fluid flow N2 - The erosion phenomena is the main cause of the most serious incidents observed on earthen hydraulic structures such as dams and dikes. Thus, there is a real need to explore in depth and understand the mechanisms at work in such complex erosional processes for preventing similar risks. The aim of this study is to provide a micromechanical insight into the mechanisms taking place during the erosion of a cohesive granular material driven by a fluid flow, the objectives are summarized as follows: Perform numerical erosion tests.

Dabei bilden Ferngasleitungen quasi das "Rückgrat" der Transportinfrastruktur großer Gasmengen. Dabei müssen unter Umständen Reparaturen an den Pipelines durchgeführt werden. Dabei ist in der Erdgasinfrastruktur das Schweißen an in Betrieb befindlichen (d.h. von Gas durchflossenen) Pipelines Stand der Technik. Es ist jedoch vollkommen offen, inwieweit diese Technik auf die reine Wasserstoffpipelines übertragbar sind. Hierzu leistet das Projekt H2SuD wichtige Beiträge zur Aufklärung des Einfluss eines Reparaturschweißprozesses auf die Wasserstoffaufnahme und Degradation im Betrieb befindlicher H2 Gasleitungen.

In that context, large diameter long-distance transmission pipelines for hydrogen will be the backbone in the European Union with service pressures from 70 to 90 bar (e.g., depending on national regulations). It is a major goal to rededicate the existing LNG infrastructure despite the necessity of new pipelines. From that point of view repairing of such transmissions pipelines via welding can be necessary. For the LNG infrastructure, it is state of the art that repair welding is conducted at pipelines under service, i.e., the LNG is still flowing as pressurized gas in the steel pipes. The reason is that a shut-down of large diameter pipelines is not so easy or sometimes impossible. In fact, as long no oxygen enters the pipeline, there would be any combustion or (in the worst case) explosion. At the moment, it is entirely open if current repair welding procedures for LNG pipelines can be transferred to pure hydrogen pipelines. In opposite to LNG, hydrogen can be way easier absorbed to the pipeline steels and diffuses through the material. If it accumulates in susceptible regions, i.e., in the welded joint, hydrogen assisted embrittlement could occur. The planned welding procedure requires a so-called preheating and maintenance of the weld joint of up to 300°C for several hours. This temperature is way higher compared to the typical service temperature of max. 40 to 50°C at operational pressures of 100 bar. In accordance to API 941, these low-alloyed pipeline steels are subjected to short-term service loads, which they are not designed for. For that reason, a collaborative project between BAM and DVGW (German Association for Gas and Water professions) was initiated in 2022 to answer the following questions by experiments and numerical simulation of: (1) How many hydrogen is additionally absorbed during the heating of the material to max. 300°C under remaining operational pressures? (2) Is the hydrogen concentration sufficient to reach a critical condition? (3) Which material and weld microstructure is the most susceptible? (4) Is there a significant difference in the repair welding behavior of LNG pipelines that had been already in use for long-term? (5) Which welding parameters and joint dimensions must be ensured for safe repair welding repair of typical pipelines? For that reason, the present study gives an overview on the current practice in repair welding of in-service pipelines, the industrial importance of this topic for the hydrogen-based energy transition and summarizes first results.

T1 - Experimental-theoretical modelling of the lateral sloshing in rail tankers N2 - The objective of this paper is to describe and to validate a simplified pendulum-analogy model to simulate the interaction of a liquid cargo with ist carrying vehicle. The resulting testing rig consists of a rectangular container, spring supported on a two wheelset-bogie having a scale down of 1/10 with respect to a full-size equipment. The testing rig is used to validate a simple pendulum-based, simplified three degree-of-freedom mathematical model of the response of a partially filled container to lateral accelerations. The length of the pendulum is set according to validated methodologies. The resulting mathematical scheme reveals a high correlation with the experimental output, on the order of 99%, while some other performance measures, related to the peak forces and the range of variation of the wheel-rail forces, also show good concordance with the experimental results.

T1 - Assesing rail damage in turns due to lateral load transfer N2 - A testing procedure is proposed and used, to estimate the rail damage potentials of variations in both, the height of the cargo´s center of gravity and the railway car suspension´s spring constant. The experimental setup consisted of a tilt table that slowly exerted an increasing lateral acceleration on a two-axle bogie-type vehicle equipped with a spring supported container. The potential damaging effect derived from the resulting lateral load transfer, was assessed on the basis of the fourth-power law. Results suggest that the cargo having a higher center of gravity could be more damaging to the outside rail when compared with the effect of the shorter center of gravity of the cargo, in arrange from0.94% to 3.17%, as a function of the spring constant of the suspension. Consequently, and comparatively, there would be a long-term damaging effect on the rail when having a cargo with a higher center of gravity, so that specific cargo, having a high center of gravity, would be more aggressive to the infrastructure. On the other hand, for the range of time rate changes of the lateral acceleration, it was not found a consistent trend regarding the effect of the value of the spring constant on the magnitude of the load transfers.

In that context, large diameter long-distance transmission pipelines for hydrogen will be the backbone in the European Union with service pressures from 70 to 90 bar (e.g., de-pending on national regulations). It is a major goal to repurposing the existing natural gas (NG) infrastructure despite the necessity of new pipelines. From that point of view repair welding or further welding of branch pipe etc. can be necessary during in-service, i.e., permanent flow of pressurized hydrogen. The reason is that a shut-down of large diameter pipelines is not easy or sometimes merely impossible. At the moment, it is entirely open if current repair welding procedures for NG pipe-lines can be transferred to pure hydrogen pipelines. For that reason, a collaborative project between BAM, DVGW (German Association for Gas and Water Professions) and a large number of gas grid operators, pipeline manufacturers and construction companies was initiated in 2023 to answer questions on: (1) How many hydrogen is additionally absorbed during the preheating and maintaining at interpass temperature under remaining operational pressures? (2) Is the hydrogen concentration sufficient to reach a critical condition? (3)Which material and weld microstructure are the most susceptible? (4) Is there a difference in the repair welding behavior of NG pipelines with materials in “used” condition? (5) Which welding parameters and joint dimensions must be ensured for safe repair welding? The final aim of this project is the publication of a recommended practice for repair welding of in-service hydrogen pipelines. For that reason, the present study gives an overview on: (A) current practice in repair welding of in-service pipelines and (b) plans for hydrogen pipelines and first results of international research projects.

A1 - Otremba, Frank T1 - A testing facility to assess railway car infrastructure damage N2 - Wheel forces generate stresses in the rail as a function of several vehicle and infrastructure characteristics and operating conditions. The different components of the wheel forces develop strains in the rail which contain an elastic and hysteretic (irreversible) components. The irreversible deformations of the rail would be associated with locomotive energy losses. In this paper, a testing facility is proposed to indirectly characterize the level of stresses in the rail, in terms of the energy that is lost during tuming maneuvers. Different potentially influential factors are considered, including the friction at the Center plate, the wheelbase length, the distance between bogies and the radius of the curved track. The change in the potential energy during a U-turn displacement is measured. In this respect, an experimental model under this operating principle, aimed at validating such a principle of Operation, reveals a significant effect of the friction at the center plate on the energy lost during turning maneuvers, and consequently, on the level of stresses in the rail.

A1 - Sklorz, Christian ED - Otremba, Frank T1 - A simplified analytical approach on the dynamic pressures in cylindrical vertical tanks N2 - A simplified methodology is proposed to estimate the dynamic pressures developed within partially filled cylindrical vertical tanks when subjected to earthquake-related horizontal accelerations. The total pressure at the bottom of the tank is calculated as the superposition of vertical and horizontal pressures. While the magnitude of the vertical pressure depends on the free surface height of the liquid, the horizontal pressure depends on the magnitude of the horizontal acceleration and on the diameter of the tank. The liquid free surface oscillation angle is simulated based upon the principles of the simple pendulum analogy for sloshing. The length of the pendulum, however, is set on the basis of a methodology to calculate the free sloshing frequency of partially filled containers. Such a methodology is experimentally verified in this work. The outputs of the model for full scale situations, suggest that the lateral perturbation - sloshing phenomenon (earthquake effect) can generate an increase in the total pressure of 56% above the no lateral perturbation situation, further suggesting that such an overpressure should be taken into account when designing tanks that could be potentially subjected to earthquake-related perturbations.

T1 - Determination of the Effect of Sloshing on the Railcar-Track Dynamic Behavior N2 - This paper presents the study of the impact caused by a liquid Cargo on a railway infrastructure. The dynamic behavior of a tank car corresponds to a multibody dynamic system with several degrees of freedom. This study’s data were obtained from a scale experimental fixture consisting of a track and a railcar with a tank. The track was instrumented with strain gauges and the railcar with accelerometers. The data showed non-periodic and periodic terms; therefore, the results were analyzed with the Empirical Mode Decomposition method (EMD). It was found that the EMD identified the signal components that were related to the sloshing. These components represent the mode shapes of the original signal. The location of the sloshing in the track was found applying spectrograms to the accelerometer data. This paper’s experimental outputs suggest that the sloshing effect is detectable at the track and in the vehicle dynamics.
