Concrete Fracture And Size Effect - Experimental And Numerical Studies
(2010-10-14)
Most materials including concrete have pre-existing flaws or defects. The fracture energy of concrete is a basic material property needed to understand fracture initiation and propagation in concrete. Whether fracture ...
Vibration Analysis Of Structures Built Up Of Randomly Inhomogeneous Curved And Straight Beams Using Stochastic Dynamic Stiffness Matrix Method
(Indian Institute of Science, 2006-07-19)
Uncertainties in load and system properties play a significant role in reliability analysis of vibrating structural systems. The subject of random vibrations has evolved over the last few decades to deal with uncertainties ...
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 ...
Seismic Response Of Geosynthetic Reinforced Soil Wall Models Using Shaking Table Tests
(2010-10-14)
Use of soil retaining walls for roads, embankments and bridges is increasing with time and reinforced soil retaining walls are found to be very efficient even under critical conditions compared to unreinforced walls. They ...
Interference Effects On The Collapse Loads For Footings And Anchors Using An Upper Bound Finite Element Limit Analysis
(2011-02-17)
The present thesis is an attempt to investigate the interference effects on the magnitudes of the ultimate failure loads for a group of closely spaced strip footings and strip plate anchors. On account of an increase in ...
