Experimental investigations of sand-water coaxial and swirling jets in stagnant water
(2021)Sand jets and particle clouds are found in many engineering applications, such as marine bed capping, dredging material disposal, and discharge of wastewater. A coaxial jet is composed of an inner jet surrounded by an ... -
Fracture behavior of natural fiber-reinforced cemented paste backfill under mode-I, mode-II, and mode-III loading: Effect of fiber content and fiber length
(2024)The mechanical stability of mine backfill materials is crucial for the safety of mining personnel and production efficiency. When placed into mined-out voids, known as stopes, mine backfill materials are required to ... -
Health condition monitoring of civil structures using time varying autoregressive models
(2017)In recent years, there have been an increasing interest in long-term monitoring of civil structures, as the research community has been alarmed by some tragic events and collapses of bridges and buildings that pointed out ... -
An improved multi-variate empirical mode decomposition method towards system identification of structures
(2018)Structural health monitoring (SHM) plays a key role towards condition assessment of large-scale civil structures using modern sensing technology. Once the rich vibration data is collected, important system information ... -
An intelligent system for fault diagnosis in gearboxes
(2022)Gearboxes are commonly used in rotating machinery for power transmission. A gearbox consists of shafts, gears, and bearings, each component having specific mechanical dynamics and fault properties. Reliable gearbox fault ... -
Numerical analysis of discontinuous structures: static and dynamic
(2018)Discontinuous beam structures can be found in various applications such as adhesive bonded joints and piezoelectric energy harvesters. In adhesive bonded joint design, the single lap joint is commonly used and is constructed ... -
On the motion of vertical and oblique sand jets in stagnant immiscible liquids
(2019)Sand jets and particle clouds in water and viscous fluids have been a frequent subject of intense research and are pertinent to many environmental, industrial, and engineering processes. Mixing and dispersion of sand ... -
Towards system identification using single channel measurement in wireless sensing network
(2018)In the last few years, structural health monitoring has gained signifcant popularity to perform real-time condition assessment of civil structures. With the aid of mobile sensing network, movable wireless sensors have ...
