Improving signalised intersections performance for better built environment
(
Inderscience Publishers
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Traffic delays are still a significant part of the daily commutes in most urban areas despite significant investments in infrastructure. Policy, design and operational measures are usually taken to reduce emissions from ...
Dynamic Testing of a Laboratory Stadium Structure
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Studies with large physical models are a vital link between the theoretical work and field applications provided that these models are designed to represent real structures where various types and levels of uncertainties ...
Condition assessment of sewer pipelines using multi attribute utility theory (MAUT)
(
International Society for Trenchless Technology
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Many municipalities rely on the interpretation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection reports to arrive to a condition assessment grade for the inspected sewer pipelines. The grades stand as a key for decision ...
Effectiveness of FRCM system in strengthening reinforced concrete beams
(
International Committee of the SCMT conferences
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, experimental work has been reported to investigate the efficiency of fiber-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) in enhancing the flexural capacity and deformational characteristics of reinforced concrete ...
Hydrate surface area measurements during dissociation using dynamic 3d synchrotron computed tomography
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Availability of natural hydrates and ongoing rise in demand for energy, motivated researchers to consider hydrates as a potential energy source. Prior to gas production operations from hydrate-bearing sediments, hydrate ...
Finite element modelling of shear strengthened reinforced concrete beams
(
International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC)
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
This research aims at creating precise finite element models for FRP shear strengthened concrete beams. It is inspired by the fact that the determination of the structural behaviour of the shear strengthened beams requires ...
Who Is Going to Ride the Upcoming Metro in Qatar?
(
Springer Verlag
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Qatar is one of the fastest growing countries around the world, resulting in substantially high private vehicle usage as well as heavy traffic congestion. It is currently estimated that the private car usage is about 85% ...
Structural damage detection in real time: Implementation of 1D convolutional neural networks for SHM applications
(
Springer
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Most of the classical structural damage detection systems involve two processes, feature extraction and feature classification. Usually, the feature extraction process requires large computational effort which prevent the ...
An analytic network process condition assessment model for sewer pipelines
(
Civil-Comp Press
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
As sewer pipelines age, the need for their upgrading, maintaining, and repairing arises. Simultaneously, inadequate sewer pipelines might lead to catastrophic failures. Thus, decision makers must have a detailed knowledge ...
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 ...
