Pavement friction is an important topic addressed by transportation agencies to reduce the number of traffic crashes and fatalities caused by poor friction between tires and pavement surface. Pavement friction management (PFM) provides the essential...
The northern stretch of the Arun watershed in East Nepal is dominated by steep slopes and rugged topography and experiences extensive landslides each year. Reliable landslide susceptibility assessment can potentially be an important tool for risk eva...
This paper presents results from experimental and analytical investigations conducted to evaluate the lateral load behavior and capacity of steel-plate composite (SC) wall-to-reinforced concrete (RC) basemat connections. Two SC wall-to-reinforced con...
This study focusses on a method for estimating the urban recharge and evaluating the ground water quality for drinking and irrigation purposes. The study was carried out in the Liverpool Local Government Area of New South Wales, Australia, and it inc...
Due to the impacts of carbon emissions on climate change and the expected dramatic increase in global cooling demand by 2050, it is of a paramount importance that the required energy to cool buildings is accurately predicted. This ensures that equipm...
The root cause of premature failures in relatively thin (<50 mm) asphalt surfaced roads is often a challenge to solve during forensic investigations in South Africa (SA). This description is based on peer review type discussions with forensic inve...
Brick masonry veneer walls connected to infill walls inserted in a reinforced concrete (RC) frame are a common constructive system in Portugal. The stability of the veneer wall is ensured by ties that make the connection with the masonry infill walls...
Sustainable built environment has been the primary focus in academic and industrial fields in recent years. The major forces behind sustainable engineering are the rise in climate-related disasters, constant challenges in the energy sector, and a sub...
The strengthening of existing reinforced concrete structures (RC) with carbon reinforced concrete (CRC) has a high potential to save resources and to increase the lifespan of the whole strengthened structure immensely. However, when strengthening str...
Economically disadvantaged coastal communities face severe damage and casualties, which can be attributed to storm surges. Excessive amounts of inundation should be considered to a similar level to wind speeds and heavy rains that communities commonl...
