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 ...
Monte Carlo Simulations with Variance Reduction for Structural Reliability Modeling, Updating and Testing
(2018-04-24)
Monte Carlo simulation techniques have emerged as widely accepted computing tools in tackling many problems in modern structural mechanics. Apart from developments in computational hardware, which have undoubtedly made ...
Seepage Effects on Stream Power, Resistance, Incipient Motion and Regime of Sand Bed Channels including Its Design
(2018-07-28)
Common behavioral trends and characteristics of alluvial channels including rivers are extensively discussed in the literature. However, little is known about the hydrodynamic effects of seepage on alluvial channels. Factors ...
Improved Numerical And Numeric-Analytic Schemes In Nonlinear Dynamics And Systems With Finite Rotations
(2010-04-13)
This thesis deals with different computational techniques related to some classes of nonlinear response regimes of engineering interest. The work is mainly divided into two parts. In the first part different numeric-analytic ...
Factors Affecting The Static And Dynamic Response Of Jointed Rock Masses
(2010-07-20)
Infrastructure is developing at an extremely fast pace which includes construction of metros, underground storage places, railway bridges, caverns and tunnels. Very often these structures are found in or on the rock masses. ...
Comprehensine Studies Of Surface Aeration Systems
(2010-04-12)
Dissolved oxygen refers to the mass of oxygen that is contained in water. The concentration of dissolved oxygen is an important indicator of the environments water quality. The presence of oxygen in water is desirable ...
