(ASCE, 2011-03-13)The projected, increasing gap between expected workforce staffing needs of those with science technology and engineering (STEM) training and the anticipated graduates with STEM degrees demands a re-examination of how to ...
-
(American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (AIC), 2008)Use of microcrystalline waxes for the protection of ceramic art objects from seismic events is an inexpensive and relatively popular technique. This paper presents performance results for three commercial, microcrystalline ...
-
(2008-07)Historic residential and commercial structures in an early twentieth century town in the southeastern United States have regularly and repeatedly been damaged by an adjacent quarry, despite the diligent keeping of blasting ...
-
(Elsevier, 1998-12)For slab bridge decks with wide transverse edge cantilevers, the plane grillage analogy is shown to be an inaccurate method of linear elastic analysis due to variations in the vertical position of the neutral axis. The ...
-
(The Journal of Solid Waste Technology and Management, 2010-03)Managing municipal and industrial biosolids by recycling through the land is currently a strategic policy direction in Ireland. Although recycling biosolids is a plausible management alternative it can also be a contentious ...
-
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-06)The current approach to stormwater management in Ireland requires that outflows from new developments are restricted to greenfield values that would have occurred prior to development. This typically involved the use of ...
-
(ASTM International, 2006-09)Techniques required to successfully obtain downhole block samples of typical very soft high plasticity organic clay from Ireland are described. The vane shear strength of the material is as low as 4 kPa. These included ...
-
(Institution of Civil Engineers, 2009-08)Rainfall induced landslides are a major cause of disturbance to transport networks in many parts of the world. In slopes where the water table is some depth below the ground surface, negative pore water pressure (suctions) ...
-
(Elsevier, 2006-10)Statistical spatial repeatability (SSR) is an extension to the well known concept of spatial repeatability. SSR states that the mean of many patterns of dynamic tyre force applied to a pavement surface is similar for a ...
-
Use of dewatered alum sludge as a substrate in reed bed treatment systems for wastewater treatment (Taylor & Francis, 2008-01)In this paper, two laboratory scale simulated reed beds were investigated for the purpose of assessing the feasibility and effectiveness of using dewatered alum sludge as a possible substrate for wastewater treatment reed ...
-
(Elsevier, 2009-01)This study aims to explore a novel application of dewatered alum sludge cakes (DASC) as the main medium in a single model reed bed to treat phosphorus-rich animal farm wastewater under "tidal flow" operation on a long term ...
-
(Taylor and Francis, 2012-04-20)This paper presents a new approach to the modeling of congested traffic loading events on long span bridges. Conventional traffic load models are based on weigh-in-motion data of non-congested traffic, or something similar ...

(Taylor & Francis, 2011-11-28)This paper presents a new approach to the modelling of congested traffic loading events on long span bridges. Conventional traffic load models are based on weigh-in-motion data of non-congested traffic, or something similar ...
-
The use of predictive likelihood to estimate the distribution of extreme bridge traffic load effect (Elsevier, 2010-03)To assess the safety of an existing bridge, the loads to which it may be subject in its lifetime are required. Statistical analysis is used to extrapolate a sample of load effect values from the simulation period to the ...
-
(Elsevier, 2008-01)The study examines the perceptions and preferences of passengers on interurban rail and bus and compares the preferences of passengers on both these modes. This is carried out to identify where passengers feel changes are ...
-
(2008-06)Road roughness is a broad term that incorporates everything from potholes and cracks to the random deviations that exist in a profile. To build a roughness index, road irregularities need to be measured first. Existing ...
-
(2012-06-04)In this paper, truck weigh-in-motion (WIM) data are used to develop live load factors for use on Alabama state-owned bridges. The factors are calibrated using the same statistical methods that were used in the original ...
-
(Faculty of Engineering, University of Porto, 2012-07-22)Bridge structures are subject to continuous degradation due to the environment, ageing and excess loading. Monitoring of bridges is a key part of any maintenance strategy as it can give early warning if a bridge is becoming ...
-
(Cork Institute of Technology, 2010-09-02)

(Sciyo, 2010)First investigations on the dynamic response of bridges due to moving loads were motivated by the collapse of the Chester railway bridge in the UK in the middle of the 19th century. This failure made evident the need to ...
