Impact of Pulsed Dielectrophoretic Supply on the Function of Microorganisms in Membrane Bioreactors
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2018 , Article)
This study aims to investigate the effect of dielectrophoretic (DEP) force on microorganisms' viability in a membrane bioreactor (MBR). The impact of different electrical potentials (5-150 V) and different exposure durations ...
Finite-Element Analysis of Cantilever Slab Deflections with ANSYS SOLID65 3D Reinforced-Concrete Element with Cracking and Crushing Capabilities
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2019 , Article)
This paper presents a finite-element (FE) study conducted to investigate the deflections of newly constructed cantilevered slabs built for a medical facility expansion. From the beginning of the construction stage, the ...
Effective framework for change order management using analytical hierarchy process (AHP)
(
GaziUniversityEtiMahallesi
, 2018 , Article)
Construction projects are of very complex nature and come along with an intrinsic but undesirable property of change orders. The purpose of this paper is to propose an effective framework for the change order management ...
Integration of innovation through analytical hierarchy process (Ahp) in project management and planning
(
Vilnius Gediminas Technical University
, 2019 , Article)
This paper examines the concept of innovation management in the construction industry by studying the major components of the innovation process such as the major drivers of inno-vation, barriers and obstacles that prevent ...
Properties of fibre-reinforced concrete made with discarded materials
(
ICE Publishing
, 2019 , Article)
This research paper investigates the physical, chemical and mechanical properties of steel slag aggregates (SSA), gravel aggregates (GLA), natural gabbro aggregates (NGA), and the different fresh and hardened properties ...
The dynamic interaction effects of railway tunnels: Crossrail and the Grand Central Recording Studios
(
SAGE Publications Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
In cities around the world, underground railways offer an environmentally friendly solution to society's increasing demand for mass transport. However, they are often constructed close to sensitive buildings, where the ...
The effect of track load correlation on ground-borne vibration from railways
(
Academic Press
, 2017 , Article)
In predictions of ground-borne vibration from railways, it is generally assumed that the unevenness profile of the wheel and rail is fully correlated between the two rails and the two wheels of an axle. This leads to ...
Biodegradation Kinetics of Benzene and Naphthalene in the Vadose and Saturated Zones of a (Semi)-Arid Saline Coastal Soil Environment
(
Hindawi Limited
, 2019 , Article)
Biodegradation is a key process for the remediation of sites contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs), but this process is not well known for the (semi)-Arid coastal environments where saline conditions and continuous ...
Mapping the Industrial Perception of Delay Data Through Importance Rating
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The construction industry is struggling with several recorded incidents of delay due to improper planning and/or implementation of required construction measures. The common conclusion by many researchers worldwide is that ...
Performance of FRCM-Strengthened RC Beams Subject to Fatigue
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
Fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) is a relatively new material system developed for the repair, retrofit, and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete (RC) and masonry structures. Structures such as bridges experience ...
