Strengthening Slender Steel Bridge Columns using a Hybrid FRP Shell System
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2018-07-31)
Direct Shear Tests of Sandy Soils Interfaced with FRP Sheets
(Canadian Society for Civil Engineering, 2018-06-13)
Partial-Composite Behavior of Sandwich Beams Composed of Fiberglass Facesheets and Woven Fabric Core
(Elsevier, 2018-10-01)
In this study, thin-walled sandwich composites made of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) facesheets and a three-dimensional (3D) woven fabric core were studied. A total of 30 small-scale sandwich beam specimens were ...
Snowmelt infiltration and macropore flow in frozen soils: overview, knowledge gaps, and a conceptual framework
(Soil Society of America, 2018-11-08)
Macropore flow in frozen soils plays a critical role in partitioning snowmelt at the land surface and modulating snowmelt-driven hydrological processes. Previous descriptions of macropore flow processes in frozen soil do ...
Rethinking the use of seabed sediment temperature profiles to trace submarine groundwater flow
(AGU Wiley, 2018-05-09)
Submarine groundwater fluxes across the seafloor facilitate important hydrological and biogeochemical exchanges between oceans and seabed sediment, yet few studies have investigated spatially distributed groundwater fluxes ...
Diffusion and Sorption of VOCs Through Soil-Cement Materials
(Thomas Telford, 2018)
This paper presents a laboratory study that assesses the diffusive and sorptive parameters of three volatile organic compounds benzene, ethylbenzene, and trichloroethylene) though cured, monolithic, soil-cement materials. ...
Variation of horizontal in situ stress with depth for long-term performance evaluation of the Deep Geological Repository project access shaft
(Elsevier, 2018)
A site characterization program was carried out for a proposed Deep Geological Repository (DGR) project for Ontario Power Generation's (OPG) low- and intermediate-level nuclear waste repository near Kincardine, Ontario. ...
Fillet weld effective lengths in CHS X-connections. II: Finite element modelling, parametric study and design
(Elsevier, 2018)
Finite element (FE) modelling was performed to extend the results of a recently completed experimental test program to evaluate the static strength of fillet welds in X-connections between circular hollow sections (CHS). ...
Using a geotextile with flocculated filter backwash water and its impact on aluminium concentrations
(Elsevier, 2018)
The use of geotextiles (i.e. geotextile tubes) in wastewater treatment applications is ever increasing. This paper examines the potential of using a geotextile to improve upon the treatment of aluminium present in a filter ...
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 ...
