Use of Infrared Thermography to Detect Thermal Segregation in Asphalt Overlay and Reflective Cracking Potential
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objectives of this study were to assess whether temperature differentials measured using infrared thermography (IRT) occur in an overlay built on top of discontinuities such as joints and cracks and to study the ...
Modeling for Postyield Buckling of Reinforcement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Finite element microanalysis using fiber technique was carried out to study the buckling mechanism of reinforcing bars. It was found that reinforcing bars under inelastic axial compression exhibit lateral deformation defined ...
Reinforcement Stability and Fracture of Cover Concrete in Reinforced Concrete Members
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main aim of this study is to propose a simple and reliable method to predict the buckling length of longitudinal reinforcing bars and also to predict the spalling of cover concrete in reinforced concrete members. ...
Effects of Asphalt-Mixture Characteristics and Vehicle Speed on Fuel-Consumption Excess Using Finite-Element Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effects of pavement type on fuel consumption have received considerable attention in recent years, yet the influence of asphalt mixes characteristics and vehicle speed on fuel consumption excess has not been evaluated. ...

New Macroelement for Modeling Inelastic Shear–Flexure–Axial Interaction and Elongation of Plastic Hinges for Reliable Seismic Performance Assessment of RC Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractModeling plasticity in reinforced concrete structures is a challenging task due to
the intricate behavior of concrete and reinforcing steel, and interaction between
them. Although the distributed plasticity approach ...
Numerical Modeling of Rectangular Reinforced Concrete Structural Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
A Three-Equation Variant of the SST k-ω Model Sensitized to Rotation and Curvature Effects
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new variant of the SST k-ω model sensitized to system rotation and streamline curvature is presented. The new model is based on a direct simplification of the Reynolds stress model under ...
Measurement of Particle Dynamics in Rapid Granular Shear Flows
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Micromechanics of rapid granular flows is studied in a two-dimensional planar granular Couette flow apparatus. The device is capable of generating particulate flows at different shearing rates and solid fractions. Monosize ...
Effect of Specifications Type on the Quality of Paving Contracts in New Brunswick
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Construction specifications are used by transportation agencies to define the client’s requirements of the final product. The primary motivation of adopting the newer end result specification (ERS) or performance related ...
