CREEP TESTS
It includes creep testing of various materials like concrete, cement based composites, polymer composites etc. It is possible to test the creep in the following states: creep in compression, creep in tension, creep in bending. For concrete and cement-based composites, shrinkage measurements are performed in parallel with creep measurements. You can learn more about conducting these tests by contacting associate professor Andina Sprince by e-mail: Andina.Sprince@rtu.lv
MODELING OF MATERIAL PROPERTIES
Development of non-linear material models for special cases (partially solidified materials, elevated temperatures, etc.), characterisation and simulation of different material systems (e.g. natural and traditional composite materials and their components, ceramic composite materials). For more information on these calculations, please contact Associate Professor Liva Pupure by e-mail: Liva.Pupure@rtu.lv
MONITORING OF THE STRUCTURAL CONDITION OF STRUCTURES
Its purpose is to record and evaluate indicators of possible accidents in the operation of the structures, anomalies in behavior, degradation and damage, which may affect the safe operation, with the help of automated measuring equipment. You can learn more about these measurements and calculations by contacting associate professor Liga Gaile by e-mail: Liga.Gaile_1@rtu.lv
