Dynamic response of laminated composite shells under various impact loads
(Springer, 2019)
This paper investigates the dynamic behavior of laminated composite shells (LCS) under the effect of dynamic loads. The governing equations for composite shells have been derived by using Hamilton’s principle. Then, these ...
Estimation of wind energy power using different artificial intelligence techniques and empirical equations
(Taylor and Francis Inc., 2019)
The understanding of the behavior of a wind turbine is difficult due to changes in weather conditions. To obtain the response of a wind turbine influenced by changes in both wind speed and its direction, using the ...
Investigating the effect of solid and lightweight hollow block slabs on construction cost
(Ice Publishing, 2019)
In the design of reinforced-concrete buildings, solid and lightweight hollow block slabs are commonly preferred. In general, it is believed that the cost of lightweight hollow block slabs is higher than that of solid slabs. ...
Utilization of boron waste borogypsum in mortar
(Elsevier, 2019)
In this study, mortars containing borogypsum (MCB) were investigated to understand the effect of borogypsum on mortars and if borogypsum could be used as a mineral admixture in the mortars. Borogypsum were replaced with ...
A Nondestructive Method for Determining Fiber Content and Fiber Ratio in Concretes Using a Metamaterial Sensor Based on a V-Shaped Resonator
(Springer, 2019)
A micro sensor based on a V-shaped resonator (VSR) is implemented for the purpose of determining fiber content and ratio in construction materials as a nondestructive method. Concrete is investigated as the construction ...
Estimating dam reservoir level fluctuations using data-driven techniques
(Hard, 2019)
Estimating dam reservoir level is very important in terms of the operation of a dam, the safety of transport in the river, the design of hydraulic structures, and determining pollution, the salinity of the river flow ...
Determination of optimum post embedment depth for C120 steel posts using field and full scale crash test
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019)
C120 steel sections are the most widely used post shapes in European guardrail designs. The design length of these posts is determined based on guardrail containment level and engineering judgment. The soil properties where ...
An electromagnetic non-destructive approach to determine dispersion and orientation of fiber reinforced concretes
(Elsevier, 2019)
Including fibers in concretes improves their mechanical properties such as flexural strength, impact load resistance and limited crack propagation. The dispersion, orientation and types of the fibers placed in the concretes ...
A socio-ecological approach to improve industrial zones towards eco-industrial parks
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019)
One of the concrete examples of industrial symbiosis development is eco-industrial parks, which improves resource efficiency and minimizes environmental impacts by adopting models for waste exchanges between industries. ...
Prediction of footing settlements with geogrid reinforcement and eccentricity
(ICE Publishing, 2019)
This study presents settlement predictions for footings with geogrid reinforcement and biaxial eccentricity using multi-linear regression (MLR) and artificial neural network (ANN) methods. The effects of central, uniaxial ...
