Evaluation of the bending properties of profiled skin structure
(2016-01)
This research is focused on developing a representative testing method for structural skin panels. The profiled panels are widely used in many applications used in warehouses and factories. They are mainly used as roof or ...
Online Monitoring of Outdoor Non-Ceramic Insulators
(2011-06)
Transmitting power using overhead lines is heavily used by power utilities due to their lower cost compared with underground cables. However, overhead lines have shown great influence on power system due to frequent power ...
Effect of Cooling Rate on the Mechanical Properties of Glass Fiber Polypropylene Composites
(2017-01)
Composite materials have been widely used in the recent years in almost all of the industries specially the high technology industries. Properties of the thermoplastic-based composites are affected by their processing ...
Retrofitting of Composite Steel Beams Pre-Damaged in Flexure using Fiber Reinforced Polymers
(2015-05)
The demand for the use of carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) composite sheets and plates is exponentially increasing in the rehabilitation of deteriorating steel-concrete composite beams across the Globe. The aim of ...
Fault Coverage and Diagnosis of Protocols and Systems Modeled As Extended Finite State Machines
(2015-01)
Automatic test derivation from formal specifications offers a rigorous discipline to functional conformance testing. In various application domains, such as communication protocols and other reactive systems, the specification ...
Thermo-mechanical Behavior of C45 Steel over a Range of Temperatures and Loading Rates
(2016-01)
This research aims to describe the behavior of C45 structural steel that is increasingly used in the oil and gas industry in environments where high temperatures and strain rates are applied. The primary goal is to introduce ...
Strengthening of High Strength Reinforced Concrete Slabs with CFRP Laminates
(2016-05)
During the last few decades, engineers and researchers used high-strength concrete to cast reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Accordingly, the dead weight of buildings and structures were reduced significantly, which ...
Effect of Flexural CFRP Sheets and Plates on Shear Resistance of Reinforced Concrete Beams
(2014-05)
Ageing of reinforced concrete (RC) structures has captured the attention of a number of researchers to find different materials and techniques to strengthen and retrofit deteriorated structures. Carbon Fiber Reinforced ...
Classification of Common Partial Discharge Types in Oil-Paper Insulation Using Acoustic Signals
(2014-02)
Power transformers' age is highly related to the strength status of its insulation system. Oil-paper insulation system is the main type of insulation for most of the power and distribution transformers in the network. ...
Sustainability of Composite Columns under Repeated Load and Harsh Environment
(2013-01)
Strengthening and rehabilitation are important operations for structural building to ensure sustainability. Enhancing the performance for the structural elements against the various loads and extreme conditions is the key ...
