Buckling behaviour of slender structural elements under interactive axial static and cyclic loading.
… consistent with the experimental findings. Design interpretation together with an overview of the experimental and theoretical studies and their interrelationshipare set out in Chapter 5. A practical design procedure oriented about the effect of a pre-buckling cyclic action phase upon …

FLEXURAL STRENGTHENING OF RC BEAMS USING FERROCEMENT LAMINATES
… within reasonable accuracy using conventional design methods as recommended by BS8110:Part 1:1985. The original beam/ferrocement laminate interfacials hear stress was estimated to be about 2.5 times larger than the elastically derived predictions using conventional shear flow equation. A …

Designing liquid repellent surfaces for fabrics, feathers and fog
… thesis is to develop rules for the systematic design of omniphobic surfaces with a focus on textiles. First, a design chart is developed to help us understand the impact of surface chemistry and surface topography on the wettability of a textured surface. A smaller characteristic length scale …

Circuit tutor : a computer-aided learning package for electrical engineering
… diagram. Particular emphasis was placed on the design of the user's interface. It has been possible to restrict the effort to link in a new circuit model to 3 modifications to the man-machine interface (MMI) part of the program. Present software and MMI design were investigated. Circuit Tutor …

Foundation response to ground movements induced by tunnel excavation
… a parametric study was carried out to produce a design chart for quickly estimating the tunnelling-induced settlement of a single pile and pile groups relative to the greenfield settlement trough. It was found that the ratio between pile and greenfield settlements would be about two on the tunnel …

Geo-tiles: manufacturing tiles from copper mine tailings using geopolymerisation
… variable (MOR). The RSM model validated the design space by indicating that geo-tiles had adequate strength over the entire design space. The RSM model also indicated that using finer grained tailings (reducing PSD classification) had a larger effect on increasing MOR than modifying forming …

Strength Design Methods for Glass Structures
… user friendly and efficient methods for the design of glass structures are developed. The glass structures comprise various boundary conditions. Several types of glass are considered: single layered glass as well as laminated and insulated glass units. Typical load cases for strength design …
