This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 411 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences was first conceived, published, and disseminated by the Center for Information and Numerical Data Analysis and Synthesis (CINDAS) * at Purdue University in 1 957, starting its coverage of theses with the academic year 1955. Beginning with Volume 13, the printing and dissemination phases of the activity were transferred to University Microfilms/Xerox of Ann Arbor, Michigan, with the thought that such an arrangement would be more beneficial to the academic and general scientific and technical community. After five years of this joint undertaking we had concluded that it was in the interest of all con cerned if the printing and distribution of the volumes were handled by an interna tional publishing house to assure improved service and broader dissemination. Hence, starting with Volume 18, Masters Theses in the Pure and Applied Sciences has been disseminated on a worldwide basis by Plenum Publishing Cor poration of New York, and in the same year the coverage was broadened to include Canadian universities. All back issues can also be ordered from Plenum. We have reported in Volume 32 (thesis year 1987) a total of 12,483 theses titles from 22 Canadian and 176 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base for these titles reported will greatly enhance the value of this important annual reference work. While Volume 32 reports theses submitted in 1987, on occasion, certain univer sities do report theses submitted in previous years but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 2003 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rising awareness of and increased attention to sexual harassment has resulted in momentum to implement sexual harassment prevention efforts in higher education institutions. Work on preventing sexual harassment is an area that has recently garnered a lot of attention, especially around education and programs that go beyond the standard anti-sexual harassment trainings often used to comply with legal requirements. On April 20-21, 2021, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine hosted the workshop Developing Evaluation Metrics for Sexual Harassment Prevention Efforts. The workshop explored approaches and strategies for evaluating and measuring the effectiveness of sexual harassment interventions being implemented at higher education institutions and research and training sites, in order to assist institutions in transforming promising ideas into evidence-based best practices. Workshop participants also addressed methods, metrics, and measures that could be used to evaluate sexual harassment prevention efforts that lead to change in the organizational climate and culture and/or a change in behavior among community members. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussion of the workshop.

Download or read book Fatigue Flexural Behaviour of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Non prestressed and Prestressed Basalt Fiber Reinforced Polymer Bars written by Taha Younes and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Basalt fibers have recently been introduced as a promising alternative to the existing fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) family. The mechanical properties of basalt FRP (BFRP) bars are, generally, better than those of glass FRP (GFRP) bars. However, they are still lower than those of carbon FRP (CFRP) bars. Also BFRP bars have now been developed that have a higher modulus of elasticity than typical GRFP bars. Only a limited amount of research is available on BFRP bars in structural concrete applications and there is no information on the performance of prestressed basalt bars in reinforced concrete elements subjected to fatigue loading. Most studies that are available deal only with the flexural behaviour of concrete beams reinforced with non- prestressed and prestressed GFRP and CFRP bars under monotonic and fatigue loading. This thesis presents an experimental study of the flexural behaviour of concrete beams reinforced with non-prestressed and prestressed basalt bars under monotonic and fatigue loading and compares these beam fatigue results with the fatigue behaviour of similar machined basalt rebars tested under fatigue loading in air. Sixteen beams with dimensions of (2400x 300x150mm) and thirteen BFRP bare rebars were tested. The parameters that varied were the level of prestress of the bars (0%, 20% and 40% of their static tension capacity) and the fatigue load ranges. The experimental findings showed a difference in the long life fatigue strength between the beams prestressed to 40% 20% and 0% of the bar strength with the beams with the bars prestressed to 40% of the bar strength showing a higher fatigue strength than of those prestressed to 0% and 20%. For 40% and 20 % prestressed beams, there is no benefit in fatigue performance above 20% and 13% of the ultimate capacity of the beams a level at which calculations showed that the remaining prestress did not close cracks at the minimum load in the fatigue load cycle. When compared on the basis of load range versus cycles to failure, the data for the three beam types fell onto a single curve at load levels where the remaining prestress after fatigue creep relaxation no longer closed the crack at the minimum load.

Download or read book The Fatigue Behaviour of Tension Lap Spliced Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with Fibre Reinforced Polymer Wrapping written by Rayed Alyousef and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many reinforced concrete structures containing lap splices were constructed before modern bond and fatigue design codes came into existence and are subjected to fatigue loading, which may lead to a bond failure even when the applied load is far below the ultimate load for a bond failure under a monotonic loading. Fatigue loads result in a deterioration of the bond interaction between the steel and concrete and interrupt the force transfer mechanism resulting in an increased deflection, an increased number of cracks and their widths, and a decreased load carrying capacity of reinforced concrete elements of structures. Some of these structures require strengthening to enhance their bond strength at lap splices. This study was aimed at increasing our understanding of the behaviour of the bond between the steel bar and the concrete along the lap splice region for structures subjected to cyclic loading. An additional aim of the study was to investigate the effect of fatigue loading on the bond between concrete and steel, and the ability of the new high and low modulus fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) sheets to enhance the fatigue performance of a tension lap splice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fourteen years on from its last edition, Cable Supported Bridges: Concept and Design, Third Edition, has been significantly updated with new material and brand new imagery throughout. Since the appearance of the second edition, the focus on the dynamic response of cable supported bridges has increased, and this development is recognised with two new chapters, covering bridge aerodynamics and other dynamic topics such as pedestrian-induced vibrations and bridge monitoring. This book concentrates on the synthesis of cable supported bridges, suspension as well as cable stayed, covering both design and construction aspects. The emphasis is on the conceptual design phase where the main features of the bridge will be determined. Based on comparative analyses with relatively simple mathematical expressions, the different structural forms are quantified and preliminary optimization demonstrated. This provides a first estimate on dimensions of the main load carrying elements to give in an initial input for mathematical computer models used in the detailed design phase. Key features: Describes evolution and trends within the design and construction of cable supported bridges Describes the response of structures to dynamic actions that have attracted growing attention in recent years Highlights features of the different structural components and their interaction in the entire structural system Presents simple mathematical expressions to give a first estimate on dimensions of the load carrying elements to be used in an initial computer input This comprehensive coverage of the design and construction of cable supported bridges provides an invaluable, tried and tested resource for academics and engineers.
