(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2006-04)Falling trees pose a great hazard to the safe and uninterrupted use of the road transportation system, during storm events. The present process of manually identifying potentially hazardous trees is laborious and inefficient. ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2009-02)In the present work, homogenous (photo-Fenton) and heterogeneous photo-assisted systems (Fenton/TiO2/UV, Fenton/ZnO/UV and Fenton/TiO2/UV/Air) were investigated for the treatment of a diesel-oil wastewater emulsion. The ...
-
(Elsevier, 2012-05-25)The photoactivity of both un-doped and carbon-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) coatings has been widely reported. In this paper, the use of a microwave plasma as a novel oxidation treatment for the fabrication of these coatings ...
-
(European Geosciences Union, 2009-04)The Shannon river basin is the largest in Ireland and it encompasses a number of urban and rural towns. The water of this river provides the demand for drinking, agriculture, ecology, industry, etc. Therefore it is essential ...
-
Evaluation of the odour reduction potential of alternative cover materials at a commercial landfill (Elsevier, 2010-02)The availability of virgin soils and traditional landfill covers are not only costly and increasingly becoming scarce, but they also reduce the storage capacity of landfill. The problem can be overcome by the utilisation ...
-
(Wiley and Chartered Institution of Water and Environmental Management (CIWEM), 2010-03)This paper summarises the findings of a study to evaluate the use in Ireland of the different flood estimation methodologies that can be applied to urban or urbanising catchments. The study, undertaken as part of the Office ...
-
(Inderscience Enterprises, 2010-04-24)A new evolutionary design tool is presented, which uses shape grammars and a grammar-based form of evolutionary computation, grammatical evolution (GE). Shape grammars allow the user to specify possible forms, and GE allows ...
-
(IOS, 2012)Structures include elements designated as load bearing and non-load bearing. While non-load bearing elements, such as facades and internal partitions, are acknowledged to add mass to the system, the structural stiffness ...
-
(2008-12)Accurate determination of shear wave arrival time using bender elements may be severely affected by a combination of near field effects and reflected waves. In most cases, the nearfield effect masks the first arrival and ...
-
(American Institute of Physics, 2008-09)Holographic data storage requires multiple sequential short exposures. However, the complete exposure schedule may not necessarily occur over a short time interval. Therefore, knowledge of the temporally varying absorptive ...
-
(IEEE, 2009-08)The aim of this paper is to apply an approach that will allow us to consider different mechanical modes of a MEMS cantilever in the form of separate mass-spring-damper equations with the appropriate form of an external ...
-
(2009-10)Expansive cements and soundless chemical demolition agents (SCDAs) were first introduced in the early 1970s but failed to gain widespread adoption for selective removal of rock and concrete due to their proprietary nature ...
-
(Institution of Civil Engineers/Thomas Telford Publishing, 2010-06)Increasing concerns regarding litigation and terrorism provide a strong dual motivation to decrease high explosives usage in the construction industry. This paper provides parameter considerations and initial guidelines ...
-
(Transportation Research Board, 2010)Bridge codes adopt values for dynamic allowance in traffic load models that are necessarily conservative to cover for an entire range of bridges with different mechanical characteristics, boundary conditions, and the ...
-
(Instituto de Ingeniería, UNAM, 2011)This study presents a vibration-based health monitoring strategy for short span bridges utilizing an inspection vehicle. How to screen health condition of short span bridges in terms of the drive-by bridge inspection is ...
-
(2007-06)Building rehabilitation is critical for numerous older urban areas, many of which have inadequate foundations to support new demands. Consequently, development of practical methods to strengthen existing foundations is ...

-
(2010-11-13)This paper investigates the feasibility of using an instrumented vehicle to detect bridge dynamic parameters, such as natural frequency and structural damping, in a scaled laboratory experiment. In the experiment, a ...
-
(Inderscience Enterprises Limited, 2000)The results of an experimental road research project are presented which demonstrate the existence of spatial repeatability and show patterns of axle impact forces along a pavement. As part of the project, a section of ...
-
(Elsevier, 2012-11)This paper presents exploratory research related to novel full-scale multi-layered timber beams with composite action achieved with welded-through wood dowels. Different multi-layer beam designs, where the timber layers ...
