Running is a spring-loaded sport—and no, I’m not just referring to the springy, carbon-plated super shoes that have swept the running world in recent years. Muscles and tendons themselves act like ...
The use of lightweight concrete with expanded clay has increased as an alternative for reducing the self-weight of structures. Consequently, techniques that facilitate the analysis of the mechanical ...
The bulk modulus reflects the deformation of rock macroscopically and plays a vital role in geological exploration, oilfield development, and drilling. The bulk modulus not only changes under ...
Article Views are the COUNTER-compliant sum of full text article downloads since November 2008 (both PDF and HTML) across all institutions and individuals. These metrics are regularly updated to ...
Brazil has the world’s second largest forest area, which makes the exploitation and use of varied species in civil construction conducive. One of the traditional uses of wood is to build roofs for ...
Concrete Materials and Structural Integrity Research Unit (CoMSIRU), Department of Civil Engineering, University of Cape Town, Cape Town, South Africa This study investigated the properties of fine ...
Two semi-empirical approaches for prediction of elastic modulus of biphasic composites have been proposed. Developed relations are for pore free matrix and pore free filler and found to depend on ...
Composite materials have been intensively developed since the 1960 because these are leading classes of engineering materials due to their outstanding properties i.e. low weight in comparison with ...
