Abstract: A fluid-pressured test has been developed as an alternative to measure tensile strength of concrete. This test method covers the determination of the tensile strength of cylindrical concrete specimens with a centered ...

Abstract: Lecythis minor is a tree commonly known as Monkey pot tree. Its fruits are composed of urn-shaped epicarps, which are bulky ligneous capsules of slow degradation. Activated carbon monoliths were prepared from this fruit ...

Abstract: The design of marine structures requires the simulation of wave parameters that consider sea-state and water-depth transitions. Proper selection of the model coefficients (e.g., alpha and gamma of the JONSWAP spectra) is ...

Abstract: This study aims to identify limitations during hydrodynamic forces estimation in offshore design standards, such as the RP 2A-WSD-2014, and presents an alternative method to estimate the hydrodynamics forces considering ...
