Abstract: This study uses experimental and numerical modeling approaches to investigate the behavior of a square footing that is positioned on a geocell-reinforced base layer with different infill materials, which overlie soft clay ...

Abstract: In this paper a general method for the analysis of multidimensional second-order dynamic systems with periodically varying parameters is presented. The state vector and the periodic matrices ...

Abstract: The Milwaukee City Hall was built between 1893 and 1898 and is located in downtown Milwaukee, one block east of the Milwaukee River. The

Abstract: In the design practice for sand compaction piles (SCPs), it is usually assumed that the state of in situ soil does not change during installation. In fact, there is evidence to suggest that extensive remolding of the ...

Abstract: A technique to identify structural damage in real time using limited instrumentation is presented. Contrast maximization is used to find the excitation forces that create maximum differences in the response of the damaged ...

Abstract: The paper presents the development of a new device for measuring continuous pulse pressure waveforms (PPW) from the radial artery via applanation tonometry. The development focuses on improved accuracy, open and affordable ...
