This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 386 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 1957, 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 thougtit 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 31 (thesis year 1986) a total of 11 ,480 theses titles trom 24 Canadian and 182 United States universities. We are sure that this broader base tor these titles reported will greatly enhance the value ot this important annual reterence work. While Volume 31 reports theses submitted in 1986, on occasion, certain univer sities do re port theses submitted in previousyears but not reported at the time.

This book was released on 1961 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longitudinal and transverse post-tensioning loads and the distribution of these forces along the lengths of tendons were defined by calibrated links or couplers installed in the tendons. Strains induced in the concrete by stressing and existing for several months after stressing were measured by Carlson strain meters embedded in the concrete adjacent to instrumented couplers. A load test resulted in the definition of a deflection pattern and the measurement of pressures under the load. There was apparently a substantial amount of friction between longitudinal tendons and their ducts as indicated by the difference in tendon force between ends and center. Couplers installed in transverse tendons which were encased in rigid ducts and stressed from one end only did not indicate a large friction loss from one end of the tendons to the other. Tendon forces decrease, and compressive strains in the concrete increase, with time under the influence of slab shrinkage and increased pavement temperatures. A load test shows that the six-inch thickness of prestressed concrete pavement is the equivalent of at least eleven inches of conventional concrete pavement. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An important factor to be considered in the design of prestressed concrete pavements is the friction characteristics of the slab-support interface. This study investigated the effectiveness of single-layer and double-layer polyethylene sheeting in reducing the friction at the interface. A spray-applied bond breaker consisting of white machine oil cut with 1/3 gasoline was also tested. The maximum coefficient of friction for each of the mediums was determined through three series of pushoff tests carried out on four experimental test slabs. The three series of tests were carried out over a period of a year to help determine the performance of the friction reducing mediums over time and changing seasons.

This book was released on 1963 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design investigations and limited testing of model and prototype slabs indicate that prestressed pavements permit a more efficient use of construction materials in terms of required pavement thickness. Prestressed pavements can be designed with fewer joints and with less probability of cracking than conventional rigid pavements, thereby promising extended pavement life and reduced maintenance requirements. Information relative to the design and construction of prestressed concrete pavements is presented. Recommendations are developed on planning, design, and areas of engineering investigation and research. Minimum tests are recommended for experimental highway pavements. Design variables are discussed with factors affecting design.
