Nse/eb-frcm technique for strengthening of rc beams in shear
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents experimental results on the strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using 'hybrid near surface embedded/externally bonded' NSE/EB technique for fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM). Six ...
Efficacy of NSM hybrid FRP strips for shear strengthening of rc deep beams
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents an experimental study on the efficacy of near-surface mounted (NSM) hybrid carbon/glass fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) strips for the strengthening of shear-critical reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams. ...
U-shaped frcm for strength and deformation enhancement of reinforced concrete beams
(
University of Cantabria - Building Technology R&D Group
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The strength and deformation performances of fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM Uwrapped reinforced concrete (RC) beams has been studied in this work. Nine RC beams were used to assess this strengthening technique, ...
Shear capacity of reinforced concrete deep beams using genetic algorithm
(
IOP Publishing Ltd
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
It is vital to understand the shear behaviour of reinforced concrete (RC) beams in order to avoid a catastrophic shear failure and design for ductile failure. However, due to the complexity in the shear failure mechanism ...
Measurements of Elastic Properties of Biological Hydrogels using Atomic Force Microscopy
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Biological hydrogels are widely used as extracellular environment for encapsulating and growing cells. Mechanical properties of hydrogels can influence cell function, mechanotransduction and cellular behavior such as growth, ...
Queue Discharge at Freeway On-Ramps Using Coordinated Operation of a Ramp Meter and an Upstream Traffic Signal
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Ramp metering is an effective way of maintaining optimum traffic conditions and mitigating congestion on freeways. Several strategies for ramp metering exist in the literature. They are typically based on the freeway traffic ...
OntoM: An Ontological Approach for Automatic Classification
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The concept of Ontologies has been used in a wide range of application domains, due to the fact that ontologies provide a useful mean for establishing a formal, shared and collective understanding of the concepts and their ...
An Improvement of Support Vector Machine Imputation Algorithm Based on Multiple Iteration and Grid Search Strategies
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Data missing is a vitally important issue that influences the classification results in medical field. This paper proposes an improved support vector machine (SVM) imputation algorithm by using strategies of pre-imputation, ...
Machine Learning and Digital Heritage: The CEPROQHA Project Perspective
(
Springer
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Through this paper, we aim at investigating the impact of artificial intelligence technologies on cultural heritage promotion and long-term preservation in terms of digitization effectiveness, attractiveness of the assets, ...
CNN Features vs Classical Features for Largescale Cultural Image Retrieval
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Modern applications for cultural content enrichment and management require low delay image retrieval methods in large databases. Classical image retrieval methods are suitable for certain applications but are also known ...
