Soft soils are generally known for their extremely high compressibility, low stiffness & low shear strength behavior; and cement treatment is one of the most commonly ...

The mesoscale study of nominal strength concrete with focus on its tensile and compressive behaviour under monotonic loading both at room temperature and elevated temperature is the scope of this work. Diverse mechanical ...

Partitioning of precipitation (P) into actual evapotranspiration (ET) and runoff affects a proxy for water availability (P-ET) on land surface. ET accounts for more than 60% of global precipitation and affects both water ...

The bounce-back boundary condition in the lattice Boltzmann method distorts curved or inclined boundaries by forcing them to conform to a rectangular grid. This paper proposes a modification that reduces the effect of this ...

This paper explores the feasibility of a metallic damper that enables dissipation of input energy regardless of the direction of seismic excitation. Also explored is the feasibility of appropriate mounting system. Feasibility ...

This work reports nondestructive evaluation of reinforcing bars that are corroding in the presence and absence of chlorides utilizing ultrasonic guided waves. The effect of rates of corrosion and its progression in the two ...
