Behaviour of non-prismatic steel members
… in structural design. In the last decade, non-prismatic steel members have proved to be more effective in structural design than the prismatic members, i.e. they have higher load carrying capacity when their geometry closely resemble the bending moment envelope as compared to prismatic members …

Modelling of simple prismatic channels with varying roughness using the SKM and a study of flows in smooth non-prismatic channels with skewed floodplains
Accurate modelling, both numerical and physical, is vital to further our understanding of flow in rivers. This thesis examines both methods of flow applied to two distinct problems; numerical modelling of flow in simple channels with heterogeneous roughness and physical modelling of flow in …

Parametric Design, Modeling, and Optical Evaluation of Retroreflective Prismatic Structures
Retroreflectors (RR) are defined as passive optical structures that redirect incident light to its originating source. Specific types of retroreflectors called inverted cubes (ICs) function through total internal reflection (TIR) and are used in various applications such as measurement tools, …
