Abstract: Recently, reactive nanoinorganic cement-based composite (RNICC) has attracted considerable attention as a high-strength and high-performance concrete. Understanding the mechanical properties and establishing a constitutive ...

Abstract: Modal identification with output-only measurements plays a key role in vibration-based damage detection, model updating, and structural health monitoring in civil engineering. This paper addresses ...

Abstract: The effects of roughness on the flow structure in a gravel-bed channel were investigated by using particle image velocimetry. The bed was composed of gravel particles, of which the median diameter,

Abstract: Demolition of buildings can generate large amounts of waste concrete, which if used effectively, can help reduce both the extraction of raw materials and carbon emissions. However, the presence of old cement mortar affects ...

Abstract: This paper presents a framework and detailed vision for using immersive virtual reality (VR) environments to improve the design, verification, validation, and manufacture of medical devices. Major ...
