(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2010-03)To predict characteristic extreme traffic load effects, simulations are sometimes performed of bridge loading events. To generalize the truck weight data, statistical distributions are fitted to histograms of weight ...
-
(Optical Society of America, 2008-03-01)One of the key predictions of the nonlocal photopolymerization driven diffusion (NPDD) model is that a reduction in the extent of the nonlocal effects within a material will improve the high spatial frequency response. The ...
-
(Elsevier, 2008-12-15)In line with the increasing studies on the beneficial reuse of alum sludge from a “waste” into useful raw material, this paper reports an in-depth investigation of the effects of ageing time on the structure and the phosphate ...
-
(CRC Press, 2010)Accurate traffic loading models based on measured data are essential for the accurate assessment of existing bridges. There are well-established methods for the Monte Carlo simulation of single lanes of traffic, and this ...
-
The influence of diet crude protein level on odour and ammonia emissions from finishing pig houses (Elsevier, 2004-02)Feed trials were carried out to assess the influence of crude protein content in finishing pig diets on odour and ammonia emissions. Eight pigs (4 boars and 4 gilts), average initial weight 70.8 kg (s.e. 3.167) were housed ...
-
(Academic Journals, 2012)The recorded rate at which water infiltrates into a soil is influenced by the physical condition of the soil, current and previous uses of the soil and the method and equipment used to record the infiltration rate. Soil’s ...
-
(NRC Research Press / Presses scientifiques du CNRC, 2009-01)Critical static bridge loading scenarios are often expressed in terms of the number of vehicles that are present on the bridge at the time of occurrence of maximum lifetime load effect. For example, 1-truck, 2-truck, 3-truck ...
-
(2006-10)This paper presents the results of ongoing research on the mechanical performance of a 20mm binder course asphalt pavement mix incorporating recycled asphalt pavement (RAP). A series of binder course mixes were designed ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010-06)This paper presents the physical properties of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and its influence on the mechanical performance of a binder course asphalt pavement mix. A series of binder course mixes were designed containing ...
-
(Research Publishing Services, 2010-08)A road develops permanent deformation and fatigue damage because of the strains induced in its structure by surface loading and environmental change. A mechanistic-empirical approach is implemented here to simulate the ...
-
(Civil-Comp, 2012-04-18)This paper reports results from a numerical model to calculate subgrade settlement in railway tracks due to repeated dynamic loading. The trains are modelled as rigid body 2-axle carriages on two layers of springs. The ...
-
(Copernicus Publications on behalf of the European Geosciences Union, 2012)This study explores influences on flood frequency distributions in Irish rivers. Generalised Extreme Value (GEV) type I distributions are recommended in Ireland for estimating flood quantiles. This paper presents the ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2007-03)A three-tiered, enterprise, GIS architecture offers a robust, efficient, and secure platform to potentially revolutionize disaster management by enabling support of all of the phases of governmental activity that must occur ...
-
(Optical Society of America, 2005-10-16)We present an analytical model of the dynamics of spatial harmonics of holographic grating profiles, taking into consideration record mechanisms (polymerization and components diffusion), absorption, interference pattern ...
-
(ASTM, 2009-06)Waterworks sludge continues to be an inescapable by-product of the potable water treatment process. Accordingly, final disposal of the sludge remains one of the most significant pressing problems for the potable water ...
-
(NRC Research Press, 2007-05)The Multichannel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) technique, used to determine shear wave velocity (Vs) and hence small strain stiffness (Gmax), has recently generated considerable interest in the geophysics community. ...
-
(NRC Research Press, 2011-07)Full-flow penetrometers have been shown to overcome problems experienced with the cone penetrometer when measuring resistance in very soft peat and organic soil, and give a much more uniform measure of resistance than the ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2004)Sustainability in the construction industry can only be achieved through a radical rethinking of building construction and reuse. This paper outlines the problems and offers innovative solutions that embrace technological ...
-
(Optical Society of America, 1995-04-01)Interferometric methods are widely used in surface metrology. A question that arises is how much information about the surface can be extracted from a given interferogram. For examination of the resolution limit ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2012-09)Growing worldwide interest in the exploitation of geothermal energy resources has led to a scenario where the technology routinely forms part of building-scale renewable energy feasibility studies. A thorough understanding ...
