Stabilised Rammed Earth For Walls : Materials, Compressive Strength And Elastic Properties
(2011-01-10)
Rammed earth is a technique of forming in-situ structural wall elements using rigid formwork. Advantages of rammed earth walls include flexibility in plan form, scope for adjusting strength and wall thickness, variety of ...
Steady State Dynamics Of Systems With Fractional Order Derivative Damping Models
(2011-01-10)
Rubber like materials find wide applications in damping treatment of structures, vibration isolations and they appear prominently in the form of hoses in many structures such as aircraft engines. The study reported in this ...
Static And Dynamic Behaviour Of Cement Stabilised Rammed Earth Panels And Building Models
(2011-01-10)
Rammed earth is one of the earliest building materials used for structural walls. Stabilised rammed earth is a variant of traditional or pure rammed earth that involves addition of a small amount of cement to improve ...
Application Of Polynomial Reproducing Schemes To Nonlinear Mechanics
(2011-03-15)
The application of polynomial reproducing methods has been explored in the context of linear and non linear problems. Of specific interest is the application of a recently developed reproducing scheme, referred to as the ...
Regional Frequency Analysis Of Hydrometeorological Events - An Approach Based On Climate Information
(2011-04-01)
The thesis is concerned with development of efficient regional frequency analysis (RFA) approaches to estimate quantiles of hydrometeorological events. The estimates are necessary for various applications in water resources ...
Water Balance Studies In A Small Experimental Forested Watershed, South India
(2011-04-01)
Forested watersheds play a dominant role in the global hydrological cycle. Very few experimental observatories especially in tropical forested regions of India have been undertaken. This study has been initiated for this ...
Characterization And Lime Stabilization Studies On Artificially Lead Contaminated Soils
(2011-07-08)
Hazardous waste substances are solid, semi-solid or non-aqueous liquids that exhibit characteristics of corrosivity, reactivity, ignitability, toxicity and infectious property. Major available options for management of ...
