Estimation of stripping by static immersion test using image processing and machine learning
(2019)
Hot Mixed Asphalt (HMA) is one of the most common types of pavement, which exists on the surface of the roads, inside and outside of cities. One of the main destresses in HMA is moisture-related damage, which mainly occurs ...
Experimental determination of the residual compressive strength of concrete columns subjected to different fire durations and load ratios
(2019)
The superior thermal property of concrete associated to its great capability of thermally insulating the embedded reinforcing steel rebar is the main reason for the good behavior of reinforced concrete structural elements ...
Simulation-based modelling of the unpaved road deterioration and maintenance program in heavy construction and mining sectors
(2019)
Saving cost is a significant factor in the successful operation of heavy civil engineering, such as highway and dam construction, and mining projects, which can be achieved through the reduction of operating costs in large ...
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 ...
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 ...
Semantic similarity measurement of construction projects using WBS-based similarity metrics
(2019)
Lessons learned and the knowledge gained from previous projects could save a considerable amount of time and budget in planning and construction of future projects. In the process of knowledge and experiment reuse, finding ...
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 ...
Predictive and explanatory assessments of traffic-related pedestrian injuries
(2019)
Pedestrians are an integral part of the modern transportation system but are often considered as the most vulnerable to severe traffic-related injury when compared to other road users. Between 1975 and 2009, annual pedestrian ...
