(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2008-03)The decreased cost and increased processing speed for terrestrial laser scanners have made this remote sensing procedure much more attractive. The approach has two major advantages over traditional surveying: (1) a ...
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2012-11-12)Maintaining a clean water supply is one of the key challenges facing humanity today. Pollution, over-use and climate change are just some of the factors putting increased pressure on our limited water resources. Contamination ...
-
(Wiley, 2010-04)COST funding allows European scientists establish international links, communicate their work to colleagues and promote international research cooperation. COST731 was established to study the propagation of uncertainty ...

(Environmental Protection Agency, 2006-12)
-
(Taylor & Francis, 2012-04-13)Ireland is one of a very small number of countries in the world which do not charge for domestic drinking water supply. Recent developments have indicated that the reintroduction of domestic charges in Ireland is being ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-06)The M3 motorway in Ireland was constructed between the years 2007 and 2010. The motorway crosses the River Boyne, which is a designated salmonid water under the EU Freshwater directive, and its tributaries. The paper ...
-
(National Traffic Data Acquisition Conference, 1996-05-05)WAVE (Weigh-in-motion of Axles and Vehicles for Europe) is a research project, part-funded by the European Commission, with the objective of improving the accuracy and performance of Weigh-in-Motion (WIM) technology. It ...
-
(IEEE, 2007-04)Flexible robots are frequently represented by lumped models. In the mechanics of lumped systems, wave concepts have been avoided, for good reasons, generally. In the control of lumped flexible systems, however, wave concepts ...
-
(Springer Netherlands, 2009-07)The need to achieve rapid and accurate position control of a system end-point by an actuator working through a flexible system arises frequently, in cases from space structures to disk drive heads, from medical mechanisms ...
-
(2012-05)Wave-based control (WBC) of underactuated, flexible systems considers actuator motion as launching a mechanical wave into the flexible system which it then absorbs on its return to the actuator. The launching and absorbing ...
-
(Elsevier, 2006-12-22)An elegant, generic solution is presented to the problem of point-to-point control by a single actuator of a remote load through an intermediate flexible system, modelled by a system of lumped masses and springs. It is ...
-
(Optical Society of America, 2004-03-01)The relationship between optical fractional Fourier transforms (OFRTs) obtained at different wavelengths is derived by use of the ABCD matrix formalism. It is shown that varying the wavelength while retaining the same ...
-
(Institution of Civil Engineers/Thomas Telford Publishing, 2012-03-01)Accurate determination of shear wave arrival time using bender elements may be severely affected by a combination of near field effects and reflected waves. These may mask the first arrival of the shear wave, making its ...
-
(Elsevier, 2006-11)Bridge Weigh-In-Motion (B-WIM) is a process by which the axle and gross vehicle weights of vehicles travelling at highway speeds can be determined from instrumented bridges. The traditional method of attaching strain ...
-
(Elsevier, 2011-06-20)This paper considers cascaded, lumped, flexible systems, which may be short and non-uniform, which are driven by an arbitrarily moving boundary. Such systems exhibit vaguely wavelike behaviour yet defy classical wave ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2009-11-09)Surveys and inventories of the built environment have improved the understanding of the state of existing heritage structures and historic districts and assisted in their preservation by thorough and consistent documentation. ...
-
(International Society for Weigh-In-Motion, 2005)This paper provides a review of recent European developments in WIM. Pan-European and national projects are reported plus developments in sensor technologies and system design. Recent developments in multiple-sensor WIM ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2007-10)The objective of the current paper is to examine how group learning and cooperative learning are used in civil engineering courses. The paper defines group learning and cooperative learning in the first section. It is ...
-
(International Solar Energy Society, 2006)Sky luminance is an essential component in assessing the appearance and performance of internal spaces which are highly sensitive to the often dynamic luminance of the visible sector of the sky. Therefore, whole sky ...
-
(Optical Society of America, 2009-10-11)If we sample a scalar wave field, it becomes periodic in frequency. We examine the cross-terms which occur between these periodic replicas in the Wigner-Ville distribution function of such a signal. We present analytic ...
