(Civil-Comp Press, 2009-09)In this study two different models have been developed and tested with data from 55 hydrometric stations in the Shannon River Basin in Ireland for estimating the location and the scale parameters of the EV1 distribution ...
-
(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 ...
-
(Elsevier, 2009-01)Binders manufactured using a blend of gypsum, ground granulated blast furnace slag and Portland cements are technically viable and possess considerable environmental and economic advantages when compared to binders ...

(Institution of Civil Engineers/Thomas Telford Publishing, 2009-10)This paper presents the results from an experimental programme that studied the factors affecting the bearing resistance of shallow footings in sand. In particular, the tests considered the effects of the footing width and ...
-
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2009-06)This paper presents the results of a series of field experiments performed to study the development of shaft resistance on Continuous Flight Auger piles installed in sand. The test piles were instrumented in order to ...
-
(Trans Tech Publications Inc., 2009-05)This paper presents a novel approach for structural damage detection. The cross-entropy method is used to estimate the structural parameters of a simply supported beam from its response to a static load consisting of a ...
-
(Elsevier, 2009-07)When formulating an approach to assess bridge traffic loading with allowance for Vehicle-Bridge Interaction (VBI), a trade-off is necessary between the limited accuracy and computational demands of numerical models and the ...
-
(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 ...
-
(Institution of Civil Engineers/Thomas Telford Publishing, 2009-06)Most current research on dynamic effects due to traffic load on simply supported bridges focuses on the mid-span section of the bridge, since this location corresponds to the worst static bending moment. However, the maximum ...
-
(British Institute of Non-Destructive Testing, 2009-08)Pavements and bridges are subject to a continuous degradation due to traffic aggressiveness, ageing and environmental factors. A rational transport policy requires the monitoring of this transport infrastructure in order ...
