A study on the bond behavior of different FRCM systems
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)Fabric-reinforced cementitous matrix (FRCM) composites are usually applied on the concrete surface for the purpose of strengthening reinforced concrete structures. However, the efficiency of FRCM strengthening is notably ... -
Behaviour of fibre reinforced concrete using steel slag coarse aggregate produced in Qatar
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)The state of Qatar suffers from the shortage of natural resources needed for concrete production. Therefore, it is essential to investigate the feasibility of using by-product recycled materials as aggregates to maintain ... -
Characterization and application of FRCM as a strengthening material for shear-critical RC beams
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)This paper investigates the effectiveness of fabric reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems in shear-strengthening of reinforced concrete beams. Three types of FRCM systems were considered, namely, polyparaphenylene ... -
Cost benefit analysis for failure of sewer pipelines
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)Sewer pipelines failure in sewage networks can have adverse potential impacts on socio-economic aspects in any community. Due to the fact that it's difficult to capture the relationship between the physical and economical ... -
Development of a mobile application for manual traffic counts
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)The use of technology in performing traffic counts has become widely used by many transportation agencies and private sectors. Different technologies have been employed to perform such counts, such as inductive loops, image ... -
Dynamic 3D imaging of gas hydrate kinetics using synchrotron computed tomography
( EDP Sciences , 2020 , Conference Paper)The availability of natural gas hydrates and the continuing increase in energy demand, motivated researchers to consider gas hydrates as a future source of energy. Fundamental understanding of hydrate dissociation kinetics ... -
Effect of Pavement Surface Aging on Tire-Pavement Noise: A Case Study in the State of Qatar
( EDP Sciences , 2018 , Conference Paper)The acoustical performance of asphalt pavements changes with time due to combined effects of environmental conditions and various distresses induced by repeated and heavy traffic. This study examined the changes in the ... -
Modeling travel behavior based on household characteristics
( EDP Sciences , 2017 , Conference Paper)This paper presents the relationship between travel behaviour based on demographic and socioeconomic characteristics of households in the City of Jericho, within the context of trips generation. The significance of this ... -
Water retention and characteristic curves representing tropical clay soils from Africa
( EDP Sciences , 2020 , Conference Paper)Soil water retention curves (SWRCs) form an essential component of frameworks coupling the hydromechanical behaviour of unsaturated soils. The curves describe how suction changes with variables such as degree of saturation, ...
