ASYMPTOTIC MULTIPLE-SCALES ANALYSIS OF HYDRAULIC TRANSIENTS IN ELASTIC AND VISCOELASTIC PRESSURIZED CONDUITS
(2017-08-24)The hydraulic transient phenomenon known as water hammer has a long history [35]. To date, only relatively simple cases have been studied analytically among the numerous publications. In this research, a formal asymptotic ... -
Experimental and Analytical Behavior of Sandwich Composite Beams: Comparison of Natural and Synthetic Materials
(SAGE, 2016-05-31)In this study, the flexural behavior of sandwich composite beams made of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) skins and light-weight cores are studied. The focus is on the comparison of natural and synthetic fiber and core ... -
Flexural Behavior of Sandwich Panels made of FRP Composites: Synthetic and Natural Fibers
(CSCE, 2016-06-01)Sandwich panels made of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) skins and light-weight core materials have the potential to be effectively used in several structural applications such as cladding, decking, and roofing panels. The ... -
LIQUID BRIDGE TO STABLE FIBRE: POLYMER ENTANGLEMENT DRIVES FIBRE FORMATION FROM HIGHLY CONCENTRATED DEXTRAN SOLUTIONS
(2020-10-20)Liquid bridges have been studied for over 200 years, due to their countless natural and industrial occurrences. Majority of these studies focus on Newtonian fluids between coaxial discs, where the dimensions of the liquid ... -
MECHANICAL BEHAVIOUR OF DAMAGED REINFORCED CONCRETE PIPES REPAIRED WITH LAYERED SANDWICH FIBER COMPOSITES
(2021-04-08)Trenchless pipe repair can offer time and cost savings over traditional excavation and replacement of damaged pipes. Conventional repair methods using prefabricated steel liners are not effective due to significant loss ... -
PVA-Based Scaffolds for Controlled Release of Neuroprotective Compounds
(2021-08-06)To restore function lost by damage to the nerve fibers, nerve regeneration must take place. Poor clinical outcomes are still observed for many autografting surgeries, stem cell therapies, and growth factor treatments. ...
