Abstract: This paper reports on the seismic performance of three geosynthetic-reinforced segmental retaining wall systems backfilled with a silty sand mixture, using a shaking table excited by 1995 Kobe earthquake loadings. The ...

Abstract: The position analysis of a nine-link Barranov truss is finished by using Dixon resultants together with Sylvester resultants. Above all, using vector method in complex plane to construct four ...

Abstract: Cyclic loading has been known to induce fluid flow and thus mechanotransduction in bones. In the past, four-point bending tests have been used exclusively in studying fluid flow in bones. In order to better understand the ...

Abstract: This paper summarizes the seismic response of five large-scale retaining walls having a geocell facing. The walls were

Abstract: Novel designs of a cylindrical and a flat portable direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) have been proposed in this research. Experimental cells have also been fabricated. Their maximum power output ...
