APPLICATION OF MULTI-HAZARD SEISMIC-BLAST DETAILING FOR HIGHWAY BRIDGES
… of a typical highway bridge in New York. Seismic-detailing for blast loading on bridges has been investigated to study the correlations between seismic design for blast load effects. High-precision 3D Finite Element models of bridges detailed for blast-resistant applications have been developed by …

Application of New Materials and Innovative Detailing for Reinforced Concrete Structures
<p>Confinement enhances mechanical properties of concrete sections specifically its strain capacity thus results is higher displacement capacity for reinforced concrete members. Even though the behavior of concrete confined with external jackets has been extensively investigated in previous …

Tiger; a stage play, and a reflective essay detailing the writing process
This thesis includes a full length play and a separate section describing the creation of this play. The play depicts family members struggling with the direct and indirect ramifications of alcoholism, depression, and suicide. The play is composed of two acts; act one contains eight scenes, and act …

RELATIVE AND OBJECTIVE, ON BALANCE: Detailing the Best Systems Analysis of Laws
Variations on Lewis’ Best Systems Analysis (BSA) of laws of nature have tended to emphasize the aspects of the view that allow it to accommodate the peculiarities of scientific practice. That move has allowed such views to do a lot of good work in solving old and new challenges for the BSA, but at …

Detailing for compression in reinforced concrete wall boundary elements: experiments, simulations, and design recommendations
… experimental program explored the effects of detailing of both transverse and longitudinal reinforcement and loading protocol on the compressive confined strength and strain capacity of boundary elements. In the second phase of research, these experimental results were combined with prior …

Sitting, Standing and Starting: Detailing Postural Control and Gait Anticipation for Children with Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy
Of all children in the US born with Cerebral Palsy (CP), 30-40% of them will be diagnosed with Hemiplegic CP (HCP), presenting with one side of the body weaker than the other. The resulting asymmetries impede the ability of children with HCP to distribute weight evenly between their lower limbs. …

Geochemistry of karst deposits in Borneo detailing hydroclimate variations in the Warm Pool across the late Pleistocene
Variability in the tropical ocean-atmospheric system causes global scale climate anomalies, most evident in the El Niño-Southern Oscillation’s coupled climate feedbacks. Despite being an area of high interest, many questions still remain regarding the west Pacific warm pool’s response to external …

The Application and interpretation of linear finite element analysis results in the design and detailing of hogging moment regions in reinforced concrete flat plates
… analysis. It is apparent that when designing and detailing using a FE analysis, a great deal is left up to engineering judgement, especially in areas of the structures where peak load effects (singularities) are experienced. In this thesis these peak areas are investigated, in an effort to provide …

The impact of marketised discourse on the interaction between drug representatives and physicians
… and promote pharmaceutical products (‘drug detailing’). Against the background of a continuous innovative slow-down, drug companies have shifted strategic emphasis towards marketing and selling. With regards to drug detailing, I am investigating how this shift towards marketing is manifested …

Rehabilitation of Longitudinal Joints in Double-Tee Girder Bridges
… methods on this type of bridge. Current detailing between adjacent double-tee bridge girders consists of discrete welded steel connections. Wehbe et al. (2016) showed that this longitudinal joint detailing is insufficient for fatigue, service, and strength loading, thereby significantly …

Producing architecture
… that the transparency of a building is in its detailing. As designers continue to take their designs to new limits, the importance of detailing has grown. Today, buildings are designed such that people from multi-disciplinary professions must form a team in order to be able to produce …

Análise, dimensionamento, detalhamento e desenho de estruturas de edifícios de concreto armado por microcomputadores
The analysis, design, detailing and drawing of reinforced concrete multistory buildings by desk-computers are the main objectives of this work. A FORTRAN 77 language especific system based on the work of Menezes [25] was developed, where the floors are considered as grids supported on the columns …

Seismic Performance of Precast Concrete Flooring Systems
… was to investigate the support connection detailing for these precast concrete flooring systems that had been identified as potentially vulnerable to earthquake induced non-ductile failure modes and that had not been previously tested. To achieve this objective, the performance of precast …

Nonlinear Cyclic Truss Model for Beam-Column Joints of Non-ductile RC Frames
… impact on the structure's behavior. Modern detailing provides sufficient strength within these joints to transfer the forces between the beams and the columns during a seismic event, but existing structures built with poor detailing are still quite prevalent. Identifying the need and extent …

Seismic Behaviour of Grouted Connections in Precast Concrete Panels
… rise industrial precast concrete buildings. The detailing and quantity of each reviewed connection type in the sampled data is reported, and advantages and potential deficiencies of each connection type are discussed. Following the Canterbury earthquakes, it was observed that brittle failure had …

Cross-country study on the promotion of new pharmaceutical products
… coming under closer scrutiny, it is likely that detailing will receive even more funding in the coming years. This thesis analyzes how differences in detailing regulations in the United States, United Kingdom, Sweden, Italy, and France lead to differences in the promotion and sales of antinausea, …
