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. -
Analysis of a rock slide stabilized with a toe-berm: A case study in British Columbia, Canada
(Elsevier, 2004)Practical experience has shown that slope movement can be controlled by the placement of a berm near the toe of the moving mass. During construction of the Revelstoke project (British Columbia, Canada), excavation of a ... -
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 ... -
Analytical Investigation of Concrete Beam Reinforced with GFRP Rebars Under Low Axial Loading
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2021-05-26)The main objective of the research presented in this paper was to perform the analytical study to investigate the flexural capacity of the concrete beam reinforced longitudinally and laterally with glass fiber-reinforced ... -
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 ... -
Benchmarking numerical freeze/thaw models

Biodegradation kinetics of individual and mixture non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in an agricultural soil receiving alkaline treated biosolids
(Elsevier, 2021)Land application of biosolids is one potential source of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) into agricultural soils. Degradation is an important natural attenuation pathway that affects the fate and transport ... -
Blue-Green and Benthic: A Workshop on Monitoring, Mitigation and Management of Cyanobacteria in Atlantic Canada. Final Report.
(2023-01-12)WORKSHOP SUMMARY Since the 2018 Atlantic Canadian Cyanobacteria Workshop, we have seen a rapid increase in the number of waterbodies (recreational and drinking water supplies) under public advisories, exposing gaps in ... -
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 ... -
