Dynamic stability of an axially loaded elastically restrained column
(2023)The dynamic stability of axially loaded columns is a key problem in structural analysis, and in earthquake engineering particularly. Experience has shown that columns occasionally buckle when subject to dynamic axial ... -
Dynamic stability of axially loaded beams on elastic foundations
(2019)Beams on elastic foundations have received great attention of researchers for its importance in civil engineering. The present work can be applied, for example, to the study of dynamically loaded finite columns which are ... -
Dynamic stability of pile foundations under seismic excitations with two frequencies
(2024)In civil engineering, deep foundation systems, specifically pile foundations, play a critical role in transferring the structural loads of heavy constructions from superstructures to deeper layers of soil. The consequences ... -
Dynamic stability of piles under earthquake with fractional damping foundation
(2023)Pile foundation is an essential structural component in civil engineering. The failure of a pile foundation under an earthquake may result in significant economic consequences, such asinterruption of transportation, ... -
Entropy-based reliability analysis and design in slope engineering
(2018)Canada has a wide range of landslide types reflecting the diverse geomorphic and geologic environments in the nation’s landscape. Many civil engineering projects are located on or near sloping ground, and thus are ... -
Ground improvement of non-cohesive soil using nanoparticles, specifically, laponite
(2024)Ground improvement through densification is a widely used techniques to mitigate the risk of liquefaction and significant soil deformations. Traditional site stabilization techniques have certain limitations such as ... -
Probabilistic reliability analysis of slopes with truncated random variables from censored samples
(2024)Probabilistic reliability analysis and design have been a research topic of intense interest in geotechnical engineering in recent decades due to the inherent uncertainty in soil property data obtained from field or ... -
Quantile-based reliability analysis and design in slope stability
(2018)The study and analysis of slopes are essential for understanding their performance and, in particular, their stability, reliability, and deformations. Traditional slope stability analysis involves predicting the location ... -
Reliability analysis of slopes with truncated quantile functions from small, truncated/censored samples
(2024)Truncated and censored samples encountered in geotechnical engineering arise from various factors such as equipment limitations, formation characteristics, sample disturbance, unsuitable sampling methods, environmental ... -
Reliability analysis of soil liquefaction using truncated distributions
(2019)Soil liquefaction is a phenomenon caused by seismic activity in the ground which may result in surface settlement, the formation of sand boils, lateral spreading that ultimately damages the super-structure and loss of ... -
Ultimate tensile deformation and strength capacity of shear tab connections
(2019)Single plate or shear tab is a common simple connection to connect steel beams to columns. The connection is traditionally designed for the shear load transferred from the supported beam only, while it has long been ...
