Behaviour of short columns subjected to cyclic shear displacements: Experimental results
(2007)In this paper we present the results of an experimental program on eight reinforced concrete columns subjected to constant axial load and reversed statically imposed displacements. The loading conditions simulated those ... -
Bicyclists' braking profile on typical urban road pavements
(2011)This study examines the bicyclists' braking profile on four typical pavement types in the urban road environment: asphalt, concrete plate, concrete bricks and thermoplastic material. The experiment took place in the city ... -
Delivering Beauveria bassiana with electrostatic powder for the control of stored-product beetles
(2017)BACKGROUND: The efficacy of a Beauveria bassiana-based formulation (Bb38) with Entostat, an electrostatically charged powder, was investigated as a surface treatment against Cryptolestes ferrugineus, Oryzaephilus surinamensis ... -
Numerical simulation of the nonlinear bending response of fibre-reinforced cementitious matrix beams and comparison with experimental results
(2011)The aim of this work is the efficient numerical simulation of the bending behaviour of fibre reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) beams. For the production of the FRCM specimens, a high-strength cementitious matrix with ... -
Using a lethality index to assess susceptibility of Tribolium confusum and Oryzaephilus surinamensis to insecticides
(2015)We evaluated knockdown caused by four insecticides: alpha-cypermethrin, chlorfenapyr, pirimiphos-methyl and fipronil against adults of Tribolium confusum Jacquelin Duval, the confused flour beetle and Oryzaephilus surinamensis ...
