(BCRI, 2010-09)It is important that the assessment of bridges be as accurate as possible. Dynamic amplification is one area in which the codes are sometimes overly conservative. Bridge dynamics is well researched but the majority of ...
-
(Elsevier, 2009-08)This work gives a semi-analytical approach for the dynamic analysis of beams and plates rest-ing on an elastic half-space with inertial properties. Such calculations have been associated with significant mathematical ...
-
(Elsevier, 2011-12)Most of the current research on dynamic amplification factors caused by traffic flow on a bridge has focused on bending moment effects. Although bending stresses often govern the requirements of the bridge section, sufficient ...
-
(Elsevier, 2007-07)Drinking-water treatment sludge (DWTS) produced at water treatment plants is an inescapable by-product and has long been treated as a waste for landfill. In this study, a series of batch adsorption tests were conducted ...
-
(IABSE, 2007-09)The corrosion of European concrete highway structures leads to traffic disruption, significant expenditure on remedial works and ultimately threatens to impact on European competitiveness. A potentially more efficient ...
-
(CRC Press, 2012-07-08)Maximum loading on long-span bridges typically occurs in congested traffic conditions. As traffic becomes congested car drivers may change lane, increasing the tendency for trucks to travel in platoons. For long-span ...
-
(Springer, 2008-04)This paper describes the development of a model to analyse the rate of infiltration and run-off experienced by a partly saturated soil slope during rainfall. The paper first reviews some of the most popular infiltration ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2006-03)Many authors, using both experimental tests and complex numerical models, have examined the effect of vehicle velocity on a highway bridge’s dynamic amplification. Although these tests and models give valuable quantitative ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineering (ASCE), 2006-03)The effect of multiple vehicles on a bridge’s dynamic amplification is a complex problem. Previously authors have examined multiple vehicle presence by constructing elaborate finite element models or undertaking field ...
-
(Springer, 2011-09)Background, aim and scope: Treatment performance of constructed wetlands (CWs) is largely dependent on the characteristics of the wastewater. Although livestock wastewater is readily biodegradable in general, its variety ...
-
(European Communities, 1998)WIM has developed greatly in the last ten years and confidence in the accuracy of recorded data has increased significantly. Traffic data recently obtained from a number of representative European sites are used to ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2004-11)Despite being considered one of many seventeenth century American wall insulation systems, brick nogging emerges as a prevalent construction type throughout all of original colonies. Used in both framed and hewn-log ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2011-03)With one of the highest energy dependencies in the European Union, Ireland must adapt quickly to renewable energy technologies or risk paying the penalty in the form of high energy prices in years to come. Escalating ...
-
(Geological Society of London, 2007-05)Guidance is provided for geotechnical engineers designing civil engineering works in silty soils. A detailed characterisation of two estuarine silt sites in Ireland is performed and the soil properties are linked to their ...
-
(Elsevier, 2010-02-09)Guidance is provided for geotechnical engineers designing civil engineering works in silty soils based on a detailed characterisation of a glaciomarine silt from Os in western Norway. It was found that these soils are ...
-
(American Institute of Conservators, 2004)Brick produced prior to the mid-twentieth century exhibit high levels of variability in appearance, geometry, and mechanical properties. Understanding historic brick variability is important for accurate performance ...
-
(Elsevier, 2005-01-26)This study investigated the efficiency of a four-stage tidal flow constructed wetland system for the removal of organic matter and ammoniacal-nitrogen from diluted piggery wastewater. The results demonstrated that the ...
-
Enhancement factors for the vertical response of footbridges subjected to stochastic crowd loading (Elsevier, 2012-07)The vertical acceleration response of a hypothetical footbridge is predicted for a sample of single pedestrians and a crowd of pedestrians using a probabilistic approach. This approach uses statistical distributions to ...
-
(Copernicus Publications on behalf of the European Geosciences Union, 2012-07-20)A framework of guiding recommendations for effective pre-flood and flood warning communications derived from the URFlood project (2nd ERA-Net CRUE Research Funding Initiative) from extensive quantitative and ...
-
(Elsevier, 2010-12-15)Excess phosphorus (P) in wastewaters promotes eutrophication in receiving waterways. A cost-effective method such as use of novel low-cost adsorbents for its adsorptive removal would significantly reduce such impacts. Using ...
