1g model tests of vertically loaded GFRP piles
(Canadian Geotechnical Society (CGS), 2019-09-29)The conventional piling materials (i.e., concrete, steel, wood) are more likely to have durability problems (i.e., corrosion, degradation, deterioration) in harsh environments and offshore construction. Fiber-reinforced ... -
Advances in methods for control over networks
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2012)No abstract available. -
An Analytical Approach to Assess Quality Control Sample Sizes of Cement-Based Solidification/Stabilization
(NRC Research Press, 2017)This paper presents an analytical approach to selecting the sample size required to achieve acceptable quality control in a cement-based solidification/stabilization construction cell program intended for the treatment/containment ... -
Angular momentum population in the fragmentation of Pb-208 at 1 GeV/nucleon

Application of Recycled Gypsum Wallboards in Cement Mortar
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering (CSCE), 2019-06-12)Gypsum is a naturally formed mineral that is already known to be added to cement at small percentages in order to reduce the speed of reaction with water, however it seems that substantial technical research has not been ... -
Assessing the Effects of Land Use Changes on Non-Point Source Pollution Reduction for the Three Gorges Watershed Using the SWAT Model
(2013-09)This study presents a new attempt of applying the hydrological model SWAT to the Three Gorges watershed in China for addressing its non-point source (NPS) pollution control issues. The model was calibrated and validated ... -
ASSESSMENT OF TWO THERMALLY TREATED DRILL MUD WASTES FOR LANDFILL CONTAINMENT APPLICATIONS
(SAGE Publications, 2007)Offshore oil and gas drilling operations generate significant amounts of drill mud waste, some of which is transported onshore for subsequent thermal treatment (i.e. via thermal remediation). This treatment process results ... -
Axial Behavior of Innovative Sand-Coated GFRP Piles in Cohesionless Soil
(ASCE, 2020-10-01)In pile construction, conventional pile materials such as concrete, steel, and wood are frequently subject to soil–substructure interaction durability problems due to corrosion and deterioration. Fiber-reinforced polymers ... -
Behavior of Slender GFRP Reinforced Concrete Columns
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2019-04-24)This paper presents an experimental and analytical study on slender concrete columns reinforced with glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars. The experimental program included ten concrete columns with rectangular ... -

Bond-Slip Analytical Formulation toward Optimal Embedment of Concrete-Filled Circular FRP Tubes into Concrete Footings
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010-03-15)This paper presents a robust analytical model for a moment connection of concrete-filled fiber reinforced-polymer (FRP) tubes (CFFTs) to concrete footings. The CFFT connection is based on a simple approach of direct embedment ... -
Calibration of Reduction Factor for Concrete Columns Strengthened with Unidirectional Fiber-Reinforced Wrapping
(2019-06-04)Strengthening with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) wrapping is a well-established method of retorifiting or upgrading existing concrete columns. The available test data cooreponding to FRP wrapped concrete columns has ... -

Characterization of Combined Longitudinal and Transverse FRPs for Strengthening Concrete Columns
(NRC Research Press, 2019-09-04)This paper presents the results of a study on the characterization of combined longitudinal near-surface-mounted (NSM) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) bars and transverse FRP wraps for strengthening concrete columns. A total ... -
Characterizing Porosity and Diffusive Properties of Monolithic Cement-Based Solidified/Stabilized Materials
(2012-07)This paper presents the application of a single reservoir diffusion test to determine both the effective porosity of a soil-cement matrix and the diffusivity of tritium through saturated, monolithic, cement solidified/stabilized ... -
Climate change impacts on the temperature and magnitude of groundwater discharge from shallow, unconfined aquifers

Closed-Form Model and Parametric Study on Connection of Concrete-Filled FRP Tubes to Concrete Footings by Direct Embedment
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2010-10-30)Concrete-filled fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (CFFTs) have been introduced as a new system for piles, columns and poles. A simple moment connection based on direct embedment of the CFFT into concrete footings or ...
