Impact Behavior of Sustainable Sandwich Panels with Flax FRP Faces and Cardboard Cores
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-04-03)Structural sandwich panels have been shown to be effective for use as building cladding materials due to their low weight and high relative strength and stiffness. To increase the sustainability of these panels natural and ... -
Impact Behaviour of Sandwich Panels Made of Flax Fiber-Reinforced Bio-Based Polymer Face Sheets and Foam Cores
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2018-04-19) -
Improved Design-Oriented Confinement Models for FRP-Wrapped Concrete Cylinders based on Statistical Analyses
(Elsevier, 2015-03-15)This paper introduces improved design-oriented confinement models for cylindrical concrete members wrapped with fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites based on a rigorous statistical evaluation of a large database. As ... -

Investigation of the Stress-Strain Constitutive Behavior of ±55° Filament Wound GFRP Pipes in Compression and Tension
(Elsevier, 2019-05-09)The behavior of hollow ±55o filament wound glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) pipes under longitudinal compressive and tensile loading is studied experimentally using 31 pipe specimens. The main parameters were the ... -
Investigation of weld effective length rules for CHS X-connections
(Balkema, 2017)A laboratory-based test program was conducted to assess the performance of fillet welds in X-connections between circular hollow sections (CHS). Six full-scale, fillet-welded CHS-to-CHS X-connections were designed to be ... -
Laboratory-scale assessment of a capillary barrier using fibre optic distributed temperature sensing (FO-DTS)
(Canadian Science Publishing, 2020-01-01) -
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, ...
