The structural integrity of outer reinforced concrete (RC) containments of nuclear power plants provides an essential shield against external hazards. If this containment is damaged by an impact event, such as an aircraft crash, the question arises to which degree the reinforced concrete containment still has its protective capability. This concerns both purely structural protection and protection against liquids penetrating the interior of the containment. Due to the dimensions of the containment structures, it is difficult to perform real scale impact experiments, so in the past decades plate geometries at medium scale have been used for investigations. Detailed investigations on the structural behaviour of RC members or RC plates subjected to impact loading have already been presented in Just et al., Hering, Hering et al., Bracklow et al., Hille et al. and Nerger et al.
The following investigations deal with the single and multiple impact event (first hard impact and/or subsequent soft impact) on a RC specimen, which provides the basis for further investigations. A description of the test setup and the test procedure as well as a presentation of the test results from the impact tests are provided.
Furthermore, the experimental program is presented, which the damaged RC specimens are to undergo to deal with the question of how much the impact-damaged RC structure has become permeable to liquid media, such as water and kerosene, depending on the intensity of the impact. The aim of these following investigations is to develop a test setup that can be applied to investigate the liquid penetration behaviour (LPB) of small, medium, and large-scale RC members.
In addition to the liquid penetration experiments, the damaged specimens are to be examined by planar tomography to obtain the damage inside the specimen. The combination of damaging event, fluid penetration behaviour and tomography should enable a comprehensive understanding of the damage to the RC specimen.
This presentation discusses the potentials of probabilistic methods in offshore foundation installation, from the perspective of probabilistic ground models and data-driven site characterization. We discuss about methodologies for utilizing site-specific geotechnical (CPT) and geological data, aiming to construct an integrated ground model that can predict stratigraphic profiles and useful for geotechnical design parameters at any location within a 3D domain. The predicted parameters and stratigraphy are then used to predict the probability of potential pile tip damage, upon collision with a boulder.
Acceleration sensors are vital for assessing engineering structures by measuring properties like natural frequencies. In practice, engineering structures often have low natural frequencies and face harsh environmental conditions. Understanding sensor behavior on such structures is crucial for reliable masurements. The research focus is on understanding the behavior of acceleration sensors in harsh environmental conditions within the low-frequency acceleration range. The main question is how to distinguish sensor behavior from structural influences to minimize errors in assessing engineering structure conditions. To investigate this, the sensors are tested using a long-stroke calibration unit under varying temperature and humidity conditions. Additionally, a mini-monitoring system configured with four IEPE sensors is applied to a small-scale support structure within a climate chamber. For the evaluation, a signal-energy approach is employed to distinguish sensor behavior from structural behavior. The findings show that IEPE sensors display temperature-dependent nonlinear transmission behavior within the low-frequency acceleration range, with humidity having negligible impact. To ensure accurate engineering structure assessment, it is crucial to separate sensor behavior from structural influences using signal energy in the time domain. This study underscores the need to compensate for systematic effects, preventing the underestimation of vibration energy at low temperatures and overestimation at higher temperatures when using IEPE sensors for engineering structure monitoring.
The aim of the study is to infer the soil stratification from the provided CPT and borehole data. We infer the soil type at any location within the domain of interest from the SBT index Ic (Robertson, 2009). This index can be directly related to the CPT data through an empirical correlation model. In addition, the soil classes contained in the borehole logs can be expressed as bounds on Ic. A log-transformation was applied to Ic, Y = ln(Ic), and Y was modelled by a 3D Random Field, with a fully Bayesian hierarchical Gaussian Process model to explicitly capture uncertainties.
Die heute in der Anwendung befindlichen Bemessungskonzepte für Ermüdung von Beton stammen zum Teil noch aus den 1990er Jahren und sind speziell hinsichtlich hochfester Betone konservativ ausgelegt. Um die Vorteile von Türmen für Windkraftanlagen, vor allem auch aus hochfesten Betonen, im Zuge des geplanten Ausbaus der Windenergieversorgung in Deutschland wirtschaftlich nutzbar zu machen, müssen diese Bemessungskonzepte weiterentwickelt werden. Dafür sind umfangreiche Untersuchungen zur Ermittlung von Bruchlastwechselzahlen und zur Charakterisierung der Schädigungsentwicklung unter Ermüdungsbeanspruchung erforderlich. Allgemein anerkannte bzw. verbindliche Regelwerke oder Verfahren zur experimentellen Bestimmung der Ermüdungsfestigkeit (Bruchlastwechselzahlen) an Betonproben gibt es zurzeit aber nicht und die bisher durchgeführten Untersuchungen variieren in Parametern wie Probengeometrie, Probengröße und Prüffrequenz. Eine vergleichende Analyse der Ergebnisse der Studien und insbesondere die Übertragbarkeit auf bauteilrelevante Abmessungen ist auf dieser Grundlage nur sehr eingeschränkt möglich.
A significant number of new wind farms has to be installed and, at the same time, existing wind farms reaching the end of their planned life need to be reused efficiently to ensure that the ambitous goals for deploying offshore wind are met. Some relevant reuse alternatives for offshore wind farms are lifetime extension, repowering utilizing existing substructures and full replacement. In this presentation - starting from experience gained from extending the lifetime of the of the U1 metro viaduct in Berlin - we discuss end-of-life decision making in offshore wind. We focus particularly on issues concerning substructures and highlight existing challenges and opprtunities in research and development.
Nowadays geotechnical engineering firms have powerful software tools to extent their consulting business also into dynamic soil-structure interaction, which before has been restricted to a rather small community of specialized experts in this field, and they certainly do. This is particularly true with respect to non-seismic sources, that is all kinds of human induced vibrations. Hence, there is a demand from clients as well as from contractors to have guidance on the requirements as well as the limits of numerical modelling of soil-structure interaction. From the literature as well as from relevant standards, recommendations for the numerical modelling of soil-structure interaction problems involving seismic actions are well known, e. g. ASCE/SEI 4-16. There are, however, some particularities when dealing with human-induced vibrations, which are absent in seismic analyses. For human-induced excitations very little specific guidance has been published in the past. A machine foundation on a homogeneous half space excited by harmonic loads with excitation frequency between 4 Hz and 64 Hz has been analysed by means of several commercially available software packages. Parametric studies have been performed to verify if recommendations for seismic soil-structure analyses are valid for non-seismic analyses as well. This paper provides details on the benchmark example and the most important conclusions from the undertaken parametric studies.
Current standards like ISO 14837-32:2015 and DIN EN 1998-1/NA:2021 as well as prEN 1997-2:2022 allow for using correlations between the results of in-situ soil penetration tests and shear wave velocity (or shear modulus) to determine soil properties to be used in dynamic analyses. While the ISO and prEN standards even provide some recommendations on specific correlations to be used, the DIN standard does not. Due to the statistical nature of such correlations their general applicability has to be verified. We collected data sets from test sites from Germany as well as New Zealand at which cone penetration tests (CPT) as well as seismic site investigation methods were conducted. These sites comprise sandy soils as well as clayey soils, mixed soils as well as glacial soils. We compare the results of several correlations between CPT results and shear wave velocity. The accuracy of such correlations is assessed with respect to the accuracy of seismic in-situ tests. It turns out that for clean sands such correlations between CPT and Vs have a similar order of variability as seismic in-situ tests conducted at the same site. The higher the fines portion of the soil, the higher the variability of the statistical correlations, and consequently the less the general applicability. For glacial soils and other special soil types usage of statistical correlations to determine dynamic soil properties is not recommended.
Wir zeigen, dass bei homogenen ausgeprägt sandartigen Böden mit statistisch ermittelten Korrelationen die dynamischen Bodensteifigkeiten mit einer Genauigkeit abgeschätzt werden können, die mit der Ungenauigkeit der seismischen Verfahren übereinstimmt. Mit zunehmenden Feinkornanteil werden die Unsicherheiten der statistischen Korrelationen größer. Bei stark überkonsolidierten glazialen Böden sollte von der Anwendung empirischer Korrelationen Abstand genommen werden.
Der Beitrag berichtet von einer aufwändigen Messkampagne vor Ort, mit der die Emissionen direkt an einer Rohzementmühle, die Transmissionen im Baugrund und die Immissionen in benachbarten Bebauungen genauer untersucht wurden. 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.
The Federal Institute of Material Research and Testing has performed many impact tests from very small laboratory tests to very big “free-field” tests with heavy containers on stiff foundations. The first measurements have been done on a big foundation where it should be guaranteed that the foundation is rigid and the container is tested properly. Later on, a smaller drop test facility has been built on the ground inside an existing building. It had to be controlled by prediction and measurements that the drop test will not damage the building. Tests from different heights on soft, medium, and stiff targets have been done to find out rules which allow to identify acceptable and unacceptable drop tests. Later on, the biggest drop test facility has been built for masses up to 200 t. It was necessary for the design of the foundation to estimate the forces which oc-cur during the drop tests. In addititon, the acceptable tests should be selected and controlled by measurements where the impact duration is important. Dif-ferent sensors, accelerometers, accelerometers with mechanical filters, geo-phones (velocity transducers), strain gauges, and pressure cells have been ap-plied for these tasks. Signal transformations and model calculations have been used to check and understand the dynamic measurements. The simplest law is the conservation of the momentum which is a good approximation if the impact is short. If the soil under the foundation has an influence on the deceleration of the container, the maximum foundation velocity is lower than the simple esti-mation.

Monopile-Gründungen sind die mit Abstand am häufigsten verwendete Gründungskonstruktion für Offshore-Windenergieanlagen. Ein wesentliches Problem bei der Bemessung ist das lokale Beulen des Gründungspfahls, welches typischerweise im Bereich der Bettung auftritt. Aufgrund der Nichtlinearität der Bettungsrandbedingung sind klassische Bemessungsansätze nicht anwendbar, so dass der Bemessungsingenieur auf eine vollständig numerische Berechnung zurückgreifen muss. In diesem Vortrag wird eine experimentelle Versuchskampagne zur Erzeugung von Kalibrierungsdaten für solche numerischen Modelle vorgestellt. Eine ausführlichere Darstellung findet sich im gleichnamigen Artikel.
Almost all building materials in civil engineering have an open porosity and interact with or are affected by the environmental conditions. 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 (less than1 µm), 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. These effects are prominent in the meso-pore range and might significantly alter the effective diffusion coefficient.
Monopiles are currently the predominant foundation type for offshore wind turbines in Europe. Due to the increasing dimensions of the turbines, pile diameters beyond 10m become necessary. A design-relevant failure mode of monopiles is the local buckling of the pile wall in the embedded sections. Relevant buckling guidelines do not consider the soil-structure interaction specifically, although the embedment may allow for a reduction of wall thickness. However, Eurocode-based design concepts require a validation with comparative buckling cases for validation, either in terms of buckling curve parameters for both the algebraic stress-based and semi-numerical LBA/MNA design concept or as a calibration factor kGMNIA for fully numerical GMNIA calculations. These parameters are not yet available for embedded shells. To close this gap, we have conducted experiments on piles embedded in sand to investigate local buckling under soil-structure-interaction. The results will be used to calibrate numerical models. This research was carried out as part of the VERBATIM research project, funded by PTJ/BMWK and supported by the Carbon Trust's Offshore Wind Accelerator consortium.
Die natürliche Variabilität des Bodens bewirkt, dass jegliche in-situ Messung dynamischer Bodenparameter stets nur den Untersuchungsort beschreiben, und jede Verwendung für benachbarte Orte bereits eine Extrapolation ist. Gleichzeitig ist die Ermittlung von Bodeneigenschaften in-situ mit erheblichen Kosten verbunden, insbesondere bei Standorten wie z. B. Offshore-Windparks. Im innerstädtischen Raum sind seismische Messungen wegen der vorhandenen Bebauung und Flächenversiegelungen nur eingeschränkt möglich. Es bietet sich daher an, indirekte Methoden auf Basis von Drucksondierungen anzuwenden, weil diese Untersuchungen inzwischen zum Standardrepertoire selbst bei kleineren Bauvorhaben gehören.
Der neue nationale Anhang zu DIN EN 1998-1 erlaubt die Anwendung von Korrelationen zwischen Sondierergebnissen und dynamischen Bodeneigenschaften zur Anwendung bei seismischen Standortanalysen. Es werden jedoch keine Hinweise zur Auswahl geeigneter Korrelationen gegeben. Mit ISO/TS 14837-32 liegt ein Standard vor, in dem sogar für sandartigen Boden und tonartigen Boden zwei konkrete Korrelationen zur Anwendung vorgeschlagen werden. Dasselbe gilt für den Entwurf des Eurocode 7-2, prEN 1997-2 von 2022.
Untersuchungen zeigen, dass seismische Verfahren, wenn sie nicht unter Labor-Freifeldbedingungen durchgeführt werden, signifikante Streuungen aufweisen. Sofern statistische Korrelationen eine Streuung aufweisen, die in derselben Größenordnung liegen wie Ergebnisse seismischer Verfahren, können beide Verfahren in Grundsatz alternativ eingesetzt werden.
Wir zeigen, dass bei homogenen ausgeprägt sandartigen Böden mit statistisch ermittelten Korrelationen die dynamischen Bodensteifigkeiten mit einer Genauigkeit abgeschätzt werden können, die mit der Ungenauigkeit der seismischen Verfahren übereinstimmt. Mit zunehmenden Feinkornanteil werden die Unsicherheiten der statistischen Korrelationen größer. Bei stark überkonsolidierten glazialen Böden sollte von der Anwendung empirischer Korrelationen Abstand genommen werden.
Schutzbauwerke von systemkritischen Infrastruktureinrichtungen wie Betonwände und Betonbarrieren müssen Anprallereignissen oder schweren Unfällen in einem vertretbaren Maße widerstehen können. Anprallereignisse können verschiedenster Natur sein. Hierzu zählen Steinschlag, Fahrzeug- oder Flugzeuganprall oder auch Geschosseinschlag. Geschosseinschläge bzw. Bei den Anprall- oder Impaktereignissen wird zwischen hartem und weichem Anprall unterschieden, bei hartem Anprall verformt sich der Anprallkörper nicht oder nur geringfügig, bei weichem Anprall stark.
In diesem Artikel werden Forschungsergebnisse zum harten Anprall auf bewehrte Stahlbetonplatten vorgestellt, welche über die letzten Jahre im Rahmen eines Kooperationsprojekts zwischen dem Institut für Massivbau (IMB) der Technischen Universität Dresden (TUD) und der Bundesanstalt für Materialforschung und -prüfung (BAM) durchgeführt wurden. Auf dem Gelände des Otto-Mohr-Labors (OML) der TUD steht hierfür ein speziell konzipierter Fallturm zur Verfügung. Der Aufbau im Fallturm lässt aktuell druckluftbeschleunigte Impaktversuche mit mittleren Anprallgeschwindigkeiten zu. Die durch Anprall geschädigten Stahlbetonplatten wurden anschließend bei der BAM mit Strahlung tomographisch untersucht. Diese Untersuchungen ermöglichen einen Blick auf die Schädigung und Rissstruktur im Inneren der Stahlbetonplatten.
Ein Schwerpunkt der durchgeführten Untersuchung ist der Vergleich von Testergebnissen mit den häufig angewendeten halbempirischen Berechnungsmethoden zu den erforderlichen Wandstärken und den sich daraus ergebenden zulässigen Anprallgeschwindigkeiten. Bei diesem Vorgehen wird auch die mit analytischen Methoden abschätzbare Durchdringungsgeschwindigkeit bzw. Austrittgeschwindigkeit eines Projektils ermittelt und mit den realen Testergebnissen verglichen. Außerdem wird der Einfluss von sowohl externen als auch internen Strukturparametern auf Risse betrachtet und ein Fazit abgeleitet. Weiterhin werden laufende und zukünftige wissenschaftliche Untersuchungen zum Anprall auf Betonstrukturen am IMB und der BAM genannt.
One crucial metric of interest to wind farm operators is the remaining useful life (RUL) of single components, wind turbines, or even entire wind farms. Occasionally, questions arise regarding how to operate a turbine, even in the presence of manufacturing or design errors, which from a computational design standpoint reduce the remaining lifetime below the intended service life. A typical measure involves adapting the monitoring and inspection plan. Using such a maintenance plan, the author intends to simulate the lifetime of jacket-type structure in a fatigue test. The objective of the experiment is to demostrate that systems like three-dimensional jackets possess redundancies that enable reliable continued operation, despite the reduced fatigue life of individual components due to technical flaws, if an appropriate maintenance concept is in place. This presentation discusses the steps leading to the procedure of the experiment including the design process and the maintenance planning.
