Abstract: The effect of nonhomogeneous strain caused by two-dimensional objects on single point statistical properties of the turbulent velocity and turbulent scalar (temperature) and their cross moments ...

Abstract: Results of experimental investigations of the effects of distortion caused by coil inserts on a turbulent jet are presented. The coils have different wire diameters with constant pitch spacing. ...

Abstract: Long-term performance is one of the less-studied cases of the prestressed concrete bridge with corrugated steel webs. In this study, the time-dependent behavior of a bridge of this type was investigated. To consider the ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of experimental studies on reinforced concrete columns strengthened with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composites under the combination of axial load and bending moment. A total of ...

Abstract: Fatigue service life of steel bridges subjected to cyclic live loads was studied using operational strain measurements of a full-scale bridge. Fatigue fracture can be brittle and sudden, potentially leading to catastrophic ...

Abstract: An experimental verification of a parameter estimation algorithm for finite-element (FE) model updating for damage quantification of a concrete beam with extensive damage is presented using the measured frequency response ...

Abstract: Fatigue service life of steel bridges subjected to cyclic live loads was studied using operational strain measurements of a full-scale bridge. Fatigue fracture can be brittle and sudden, potentially leading to catastrophic ...

Abstract: The presence of obstructions such as tracheal stenosis has important effects on respiratory functions. Tracheal stenosis impacts the therapeutic efficacy of inhaled medications as a result of alterations in particle transport ...
