Optimization of Bridge Approach Slab
… for design and construction of Bridge Approach Slab (BAS). The objective of this thesis is to explore the usage of alternate innovative structural solution for Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), simple to implement in the field and to reduce the cost of construction when a Bridge …

Longitudinal Slab Splitting in Composite Girders
Longitudinal slab splitting in composite hot rolled girders and joist girders was investigated. Two different type of framing configurations were studied with two tests conducted per configuration. The framing configurations were designated as either flush-framed or haunched, which describes the …

Efficiency of a fabric formed concrete slab
… this thesis suggests a new form of concrete slab and quantifies its efficiency in terms of material, carbon energy and cost savings compared to a traditional reinforced concrete flooring system. The proposed form of concrete slab is constructed using fabric formwork. It provides the …

MULTIPLE SCATTERING FROM A RANDOM AND INHOMOGENEOUS SLAB
… and transmission functions of an inhomogeneous slab are calculated by labeling the wave by the number of reflections it has undergone in the medium. The Riccati equation, satisfied by the reflected amplitude, is decomposed into a finite set of linear equations by taking into account the number …

Using 3D geodynamic slab models in tectonic reconstruction
… 3D models that map the surface of subducted slabs in the mantle. In Iran, the subduction of the Neotethys ocean prior to the collision of the Arabian continent with Eurasia is reconstructed, and the debates regarding the age of continental collision, slab tearing, and the generation of …

Imaging subduction zones: slab structure, fluids, and fault slip
… zone. Low velocity anomalies along the slab spatially correlate with the coseismic slip of the 2020 Mw7.8 Simeonof, 2021 Mw8.2 Chignik, and 2023 Mw7.2 earthquakes. From this correlation, I propose a fault mechanics model based on earthquake nucleation length that links high pore-pressure …

Efficient Sparse Bayesian Learning using Spike-and-Slab Priors
In the context of statistical machine learning, sparse learning is a procedure that seeks a reconciliation between two competing aspects of a statistical model: good predictive power and interpretability. In a Bayesian setting, sparse learning methods invoke sparsity inducing priors to explicitly …

Three-dimensional modelling of heat transfer from slab floors
… three-dimensional finite difference model of a slab floor was used to generate 93 annual simulations in parametric groups focusing on effects of size and shape, soil properties, boundary conditions, climate, insulation, and building shadow. These results indicate that soil thermal conductivity, …

Le Corbusier's Unite d'habitation: a slab for all seasons?
… have become the touchstone for much of the slab-building around. In view of alI this, one would expect that there exists a solid corpus of critical works explicating Le Corbusier's precise position whose meaning, as a result, would unambiguously and by common consent be implied whenever the …

Modelling of reinforced concrete slab deflections at service loading
… is an important aspect of reinforced concrete slab design. Under-design can cause large deflections which can be expensive to repair, if at all possible. Over-design can lead to material wastage and unnecessary dead load. Deflection is inversely proportional to the effective moment of inertia …

Development of Improved Connection Details for Voided Slab Bridges
Adjacent voided slab bridges (AVSB) are economical systems for short spans. They provide the advantages of having low clearances due to their small section depths, accelerated construction times, and high torsional stiffness. The current longitudinal connection detail, a partial depth grouted shear …

Efficient Multiphysics Coupling for Fast Burst Reactors in Slab Geometry
In this thesis, we discuss a coupling algorithm to model simplified fast burst reactor dynamics. Kadioglu presented a tightly coupled multiphysics algorithm of diffusion neutronics and linear. An implicit-explicit (IMEX) algorithm was used to follow the dynamical time-scale of the problem. However, …
