Experimental evaluation of new pipe sleeve with weep holes for concrete leakage prevention
… slabs installed with the conventional pipe sleeve (T1), the circular weep-holes pipe sleeve (T2), the vertical weep-holes pipe sleeve (T3) and the inclined weep-holes pipe sleeve (T4) have been measured and the results show that T4 has recorded the highest reading of 7.74 ml/min compared to …

Analysis of the structural behaviour of grouted pile/sleeve connections for offshore structures
… higher key loads are achieved with increased sleeve and pile dimensions due to greater confinement of the grout. Load-slip behaviour and strains up to ultimate load for shear keyed connections are successfully simulated using the friction-gap element. Bond stress distributions show that high …

An experimental and finite element analysis of the thermal deformation of an open sleeve piston
… regard to the method of attachment of the steel sleeve insert to the piston skirt. At the higher temperature range, the original model was found to be incapable of predicting the true deformation profile. This is due to a separation that occurs between the insert and the skirt at a temperature …

An investigation of series LC resonant circuits within a sleeve balun to achieve wideband operation
… shield of the feed cable. Balun chokes like the sleeve balun, also known as bazooka balun or quarter-wavelength balun, are commonly used in antenna measurements. In general, baluns do perform well, but their performance is band-limited. Hence, for wider frequency bands, multiple baluns with …
