Elastic Wave Propagation and Evaluation of Low Strain Dynamic Properties in Jointed Rocks
(2018-06-05)
When the point under consideration is not near to the source of vibration, the strains developed in the rock mass due to the passage of waves are usually of small magnitude, and within the elastic range. However, the rock ...
Comparative Studies On Slope Stability Analysis

Repair and Retrofit Strategies for Structural Concrete against Thermo-Mechanical Loadings
(2018-01-29)
Reinforced cement concrete (RCC) structures have become an important aspect in most of the buildings in our society around the world. Most of the multistoried reinforced concrete buildings house important institutions such ...
Charaterization of Sand-Rubber Mixture and Numerical Analysis for Vibration Isolation
(2018-02-20)
Scrap tyres provide numerous advantages from the viewpoint of civil engineering practices. Scrap tyres are light weight, have high vibration absorption, high elastic compressibility, high hydraulic conductivity, and ...
Uncertainty Based Damage Identification and Prediction of Long-Time Deformation in Concrete Structures
(2018-02-20)
Uncertainties are present in the inverse analysis of damage identification with respect to the given measurements, mainly the modelling uncertainties and the measurement uncertainties. Modelling uncertainties occur due to ...
Effect of Particle Shape on the Mechanical Behaviour of Granular Media : Discrete Element Simulations
(2018-03-08)
Granular materials are characterized by its discrete nature which makes their behaviour very complex to understand when subjected to various loading situations. Comparing other materials, the understanding of granular ...
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 ...
