Imperial College Steel Structures

We are at the @ExRdFestival showcasing EU-funded research projects 🔬 ✨From bridges built by robots to aurora borealis inspired art – there is something for everyone! 👉Come jump and test a 4-metre footbridge, put together with 3D metal printing techniques.

Get a photo on an optimised metal 3D printed footbridge at the Great Exhibition Road Festival! @ICSteelStruct

ROBOCOP! We’re showing how metal 3D printing is revolutionizing structural engineering @PIONEER_Eu @ICSteelStruct @Shimizu_now @ArcAngel_3D

Also featured here, at @Imperial_CEE : [x.com/EUdelegationUK…]

It was a pleasure to welcome @MarosSefcovic & @NickTorfaen to @imperialcollege and discuss our Horizon Europe project @Pioneer_EU and how EU programmes enable international collaboration and advance research and innovation. Here pictured with @LeroyGardner10 and @Pinelopi_Kyv

In light of the tragic Baltimore bridge collapse, Leroy provided expert analysis on the BBC and Sky News, and through other media including the Metro, Times Radio, The Independent and The Mirror. You can watch Leroy's analysis here: bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod… youtube.com/watch?v=t2uETB…

Pleased to share our latest research on hybrid construction, featuring hot-rolled steel sections strengthened by wire arc additive manufacturing: doi.org/10.1016/j.engs… This concept can be used for both new construction and the rehabilitation of existing structures.

2023 has been an enjoyable and productive year for us! Wishing all our colleagues, collaborators and friends around the world a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from the Steel Structures Research Group at Imperial College London ⭐

Now it's @BBehzadiSofiani's turn, he's presenting our work on thin steel angle members under combined bending and compression. #ICTWS2023 @ICNonlinearMech @ICSteelStruct @ImpEngineering @ImperialCiveng

An overview of steel and timber composite flooring systems presented by @LeroyGardner10, joint work with Dr Pinelopi Kyvelou and the University of Malta. Presented in the special session of #ICTWS2023 dedicated to the career of my good friend Professor Dinar Camotim.

One of our latest academic appointments at @imperialciveng, Dr Pinelopi Kyvelou, presents work on testing additive manufactured steel trusses in #ICTWS2023. @ICSteelStruct @ImpEngineering

PhD student from @ICSteelStruct and Skempton Building Level 4 legend, Ben Weber, delivers the 1st talk on Additive Manufacturing at the 9th International Conference on Thin-Walled Structures #ICTWS2023 held at the University of Sydney. @ImperialCiveng @ImpEngineering

Many congratulations to Dr Aya Ahmed for successfully passing her viva yesterday 🎉

A mechanics-based design approach for columns with a common kind of nonlinear constitutive law has been published in Structures. Joint work with Anton Koellner and @LeroyGardner10. @ICSteelStruct @ICNonlinearMech @creativecommons @ImperialCiveng authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S23…

Our paper on stainless steel angle section beam-columns has been published in a special issue of the Journal of Constructional Steel Research. Work was led by @BBehzadiSofiani and co-written with @LeroyGardner10. @ICSteelStruct @ImpEngineering authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S01…

Congratulations to Cheng, with co-authors Xin and @LeroyGardner10, who won the 2023 SSRC Vinnakota Award 🥳 - Access the extended journal version of the paper here: doi.org/10.1016/j.engs… @postbuckling @ImperialCiveng #steelstructures #WAAM #additivemanufacturing

Big congratulations to Matthew Chan for first place in the poster category and to Ben Weber and Xi Guo for second and third place, respectively, in the oral category at the @IStructE #YRC2023🥳🥳 @ImperialCiveng #steelstructures #additivemanufacturing #advancedanalysis #research

We’re thrilled that our paper ‘Benchmark tests on high strength steel frames’ received the Best Paper Award 2022 (Steel and Space Structures category) in Engineering Structures! Have a read here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl… #highstrengthsteel #steelstructures #research

Join us on 14th March for the #INTEGRADDE Final Event to hear about this exciting project we've been working on! The future of EU Manufacturing: Enabling Advanced Innovations in 3D Printing Register here: bit.ly/3jE7jjK #INTEGRADDEFinalEvent #3DPrinting

A novel structural health monitoring system based on probing developed and published in a theme issue of Philosophical Transactions A of @royalsociety. Nice to apply a combination of nonlinear mechanics and machine learning techniques. doi.org/10.1098/rsta.2…
