RISSeismic Performance of RC Short Columns Retrofitted with a Novel System in Shear and Flexure Using CFRP Composites
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Shear is the predominant failure mode in most reinforced concrete (RC) short columns under seismic loads. The overall structural performance of short columns can be improved by shear strengthening the columns accompanied ...
Experimental Investigation of Flow Field Structure in Mixing Tee
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: T-junction is one of the familiar components in the cooling system of power plants with enormous capability of high-cycle thermal fatigue. This research investigates the structure and mixing ...
Biogeography-Based Optimization Algorithm for Optimal Operation of Reservoir Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The optimal operation of reservoir systems to meet water demand is a complex and nonlinear problem. This paper applies the biogeography-based optimization (BBO) algorithm to solve reservoir operation problems. The BBO ...

Long-Term Durability of Nonpultruded Curvilinear GFRP Bars Exposed to an Alkaline Environment: Experimental Studies and Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The use of curvilinear glass fiber‒reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars as the longitudinal reinforcement in curved reinforced concrete (RC) elements has generated significant interest. Even so, there is a lack of comprehensive ...
Experimental and Analytical Study on Precast High-Strength Concrete Tunnel Lining Segments Reinforced with GFRP Bars
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Replacing steel reinforcement with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) reinforcement is an effective solution to avoid the corrosion problem in precast concrete tunnel-lining (PCTL) segments. In addition, using high-strength ...
WASPAS Application and Evolutionary Algorithm Benchmarking in Optimal Reservoir Optimization Problems

Development of a Comparative Multiple Criteria Framework for Ranking Pareto Optimal Solutions of a Multiobjective Reservoir Operation Problem
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Real-world, multiobjective, reservoir optimization problems (MOOPs) usually have conflicting objective functions. Multiobjective evolutionary algorithms (MOEAs) have been applied to solve multiobjective optimization problems. ...
