Analytical model for the strain analysis of continuous buried pipelines in geohazard areas
(2017)In geohazard areas, buried pipelines are subjected to permanent ground-induced deformations, which constitute major threats for their structural safety. Geohazards include seismic fault movement, liquefaction-induced lateral ... -
Changes of meniscal interhorn distances: An in vivo magnetic resonance imaging study
(2005)The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes of the internal (IID) and external meniscal interhorn distance (EID) of the medial and the lateral meniscus under loading. Sagittal magnetic resonance images of 15 knees ... -
Comparative study of the effects of heavy metals on embryonic development of zebrafish
(2020)This study aimed to investigate the effects of heavy metals, such as copper, zinc, iron, cobalt, chromium, aluminium, manganese and molybdenum, on zebrafish egg hatching rate and the subsequent survival rate of the larvae. ... -
Fatigue resistance of welded steel tubular X-joints
(2020)High-cycle fatigue experiments are performed on welded tubular steel X-joints, with braces and chord of equal diameter. They are scaled-down joints, used extensively in offshore wind platforms. Three different welding ... -
Permanent earthquake-induced actions in buried pipelines: Numerical modeling and experimental verification
(2018)Buried pipelines are often constructed in seismic and other geohazard areas, where severe ground deformations may induce severe strains in the pipeline. Calculation of those strains is essential for assessing pipeline ... -
A refined analytical model for earthquake-induced sloshing in half-full deformable horizontal cylindrical liquid containers
(2016)The coupled response of elastic deformable liquid containers of horizontal-cylindrical shape under external seismic excitation is examined, through an analytical methodology, assuming inviscid-incompressible fluid and ... -
Structural behavior of buried pipe bends and their effect on pipeline response in fault crossing areas
(2017)Pipe bends, often referred to as “elbows”, are special pipeline components, widely used in onshore buried steel pipelines. They are sensitive to imposed deformations and their structural behavior is quite flexible and ...
