Repair of damaged end regions of prestressed concrete girders using fiber reinforced polymer composite materials
… cold climates is the deterioration of the girder ends due to deicing salt exposure, thus reducing their shear strength. This thesis presents the results of the beginning stages of an Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) sponsored study to use FRP materials to repair and retrofit the …

The development and stability of some non-planar boundary-layer flows.
… 5 we summarize our findings and offer some recommendations for future research on laminar and transitional corner flows. Part 2, comprising Chapters 6–10, considers the sudden blockage of steady laminar flow within a circular pipe. Even though the blockage occurs almost instantaneously, the fluid …

Multi-Physical Study of MEMS Resonators and Oscillators
… frequency of such devices follows particular trends in response to the changes in the surrounding gas and its pressure. A mathematical model has been derived to explain the damping dependent frequency shift characteristic of TPO. The solution of the model indicates that the stiffness of the …

Rehabilitation of concrete girders with distressed end regions using innovative materials
… Among all types of damage, the distressing of end regions in bridge girders is very commonly observed. This damage could be in the form of cracking and spalling of concrete and steel corrosion. This research focuses on addressing this type of damage through innovative repair methods using two …
