Time Dependent Deformations and High Temperature Effects on Different Types of Concrete : Experimental and Numerical Studies
(2018-03-01)Estimating the delayed strains in concrete, namely creep and shrinkage is very important to asses the condition of the structure. Time dependent deformations in concrete, both creep and shrinkage, play a critical role in ... -
Time Dependent Deformations in Normal And Heavy Density Concrete
(2010-12-08)Time dependent deformations in concrete, both creep and shrinkage, play a critical role in prestressed concrete structures, such as bridge girders, nuclear containment vessels, etc. These strains result in lossess, through ... -
Time Domain Spectral Finite Element Simulation of Ultrasonic Wave Propagation in Composite with Defects
Ultrasonic guided wave-based detection of structural defects or damages is one of the promising methods for structural health monitoring (SHM). A significant proportion of structural elements in an aircraft structure and ... -
Time Scale Separated Nonlinear Partial Integrated Guidance And Control Of Endo-Atmospheric Interceptors
(2011-03-17)To address the concern of classical guidance and control designs (where guidance and control loops are designed separately in an “outer loop – inner loop” structure), integrated guidance and control (IGC) ideas have been ... -
Time Splitting Methods Applied To A Nonlinear Advective Equation
(2009-03-09)Time splitting is a numerical procedure used in solution of partial differential equations whose solutions allow multiple time scales. Numerical schemes are split for handling the stiffness in equations, i.e. when there are ... -
