Lateral Behaviour of Concrete-Filled FRP Tube Piles
(2017-10-01)Applications of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite piles are rapidly gaining traction in Canada and around the world. FRP piles offer several advantages compared to traditional piles, the most important of which is ... -
Lateral sand filters are effective for removal of antibiotic resistance genes from domestic wastewater
(Elsevier, 2019)The ability of lateral flow sand filters, used as on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS), to remove antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB), and other relevant genetic markers (HF183, ... -
Long-Term Tensile Properties of Natural Fibre-Reinforced Polymer Composites: Comparison of Flax and Glass Fibres
(Elsevier, 2016-06)Despite of significant research on the mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced polymer composites made of natural fibres, long-term performance of the natural fibre composites against moisture and other environmental ... -
The Lorenz-Krishnamurthy slow manifold
(1996-05/15)The authors scale the five-mode model introduced by Lorenz and Krishnamurthy and show how explicit solutions may be obtained in the limit of small Rossby number by using the method of multiple scales. They thus obtain a ... -
Low impact development effects on aquifer recharge using coupled surface and groundwater models
(ASCE, 2018)Low impact development (LID) is promoted as a sustainable management practice for stormwater in urbanized catchments. While the positive effects of LID features on surface water hydrology and water quality have been ... -
Manufactured aggregate from cement kiln dust
(Institute of Civil Engineers Publishing, 2016)This paper presents the results of a laboratory study that evaluated the geotechnical and geoenvironmental properties of a manufactured aggregate derived from cement kiln dust (CKD). The aggregate manufacturing process ... -
Material Characterization of GFRP Bars in Compression using a New Test Method
(ASTM, 2019-05-20)This paper presents a new test method for determining the mechanical properties of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite bars in compression, namely the compressive strength, compressive modulus of elasticity, ... -
Mechanical behavior of flax-lime concrete blocks made of waste flax shives and lime binder reinforced with jute fabric
(Elsevier, 2020-01-14)Due to the increase in production of construction materials, the emission of carbon dioxide levels and the requirement for producing materials with a less environmental footprint is gaining more attention. This paper focuses ... -
Mechanical Properties of Concrete with Recycled Shredded Rubber Particles

Mechanism of smart baroreception in the aortic arch
(American Physical Society, 2006)A mechanism is proposed by which the patch of baroreceptors along the inner curvature of the arch of the aorta can sense hemodynamic events occurring downstream from the aortic arch, in the periphery of the arterial tree. ... -
Monitoring Changes in Near-Well Hydraulic Conditions as a Means to Assess Aquifer Clogging

New mechanics-based confinement model and stress–strain relationship for analysis and design of concrete columns wrapped with FRP composites
(Elsevier, 2021-10-01)The analysis and design of concrete columns wrapped with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites require the mathematical equation of stress–strain relationship and the ultimate conditions (i.e., stress and strain) ... -
New Testing Method of GFRP Bars in Compression
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2018-06-13) -
Nucleation and arrest of dynamic slip on a pressurized fault
(2012-10)Elevated pore pressure can lead to reactivation of slip on pre-existing fractures and faults when the static Coulomb failure is reached locally. As the pressurized region spreads diffusively, slip can accumulate quasi-statically ... -
Numerical Analysis of Longwall Mining Layout for a Wyoming Trona Mine
(Elsevier, 2016)At Solvay Mine, located in southwestern Wyoming, a subhorizontal trona seam is mined at depths of between 460-490 m using mechanized room-and-pillar and longwall mining methods. The stratigraphy at the mine generally ... -
Numerical Investigation of Fillet Welds in HSS-to-Rigid End-Plate Connections
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2017)This paper presents a finite element (FE) investigation on the behavior of fillet-welded hollow structural section (HSS) rigid end-plate connections, wherein the entire weld length is effective. The FE models are validated ... -
Numerical Modeling of the Lateral Behavior of Concrete-Filled FRP Tube Piles in Sand
(ASCE, 2020-08-01)In this study, a numerical model is developed to study concrete-filled FRP tube (CFFT) pile behavior and interactions with foundation soil under lateral loading. The model, based on nonlinear finite element analysis (NFEA) ...
