Effect of soil characteristics on shear strength of sands
(2018)The paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation into the influence of (a) mineral composition and angularity of sand grains and (b) fines type and content on the strength parameters of sandy soils tested at ... -
Finite element analysis of buried steel pipelines under strike-slip fault displacements
(2011)The present paper investigates the mechanical behavior of buried steel pipelines, crossing active strike-slip tectonic faults. The fault plane is vertical and crosses the pipeline axis at a certain angle. The interacting ... -
Mechanical performance of laser spot-welded joints in Al-Al/Cu solar thermal absorbers
(2018)The mechanical performance of laser spot welded joints used in Al-Cu and Al-Al thermal absorber systems has been evaluated under different laser welding and mechanical loading conditions. In the experimental investigation, ... -
Seismic strength evaluation of reinforced concrete shear walls with cracks, using the notion of fractal geometry
(2011)Shear walls play an important role to the seismic strength of modern seismic resistant structures. They are designed so that they have significant bending and shear strengths and ductility. However, existing structures ... -
Simulation of random fields of soil properties by the local average subdivision method and engineering applications
(2021)The seismic performance of oil and natural gas pipelines founded or embedded in earth slopes encompasses great uncertainty related both to the earthquake shaking characteristics and to the natural heterogeneity of geomaterials. ...
