The Definition of Civil Engineering [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1896
There is an error in my paper on the Artistic Element in Engineering which I should like to correct. Following the lead of other writers, I have ascribed the classic definition of civil engineering to Telford instead of to Tredgold, whom I have recently learned was its author. See R. R. Gazette of December 28, 1894,

FIRE AND THE CIVIL ENGINEER.

open access: yesProceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers, 1971
THE STEADY IMPROVEMENT IN BUILDING REGULATIONS AND THEIR ADMINISTRATION IS ASSISTING THE WORK OF FIRE PROTECTION IN THOSE BRANCHES OF BUILDING DESIGN THAT ARE NORMALLY THE PROVINCE OF THE ARCHITECT. CIVIL ENGINEERS DO NOT ALWAYS HAVE SUCH ASSISTANCE AVAILABLE. THE WORKS THEY DESIGN MIGHT APPEAR TO BE FREE FROM ALL RISK OF FIRE.

A Simplified Laminar Flow Model for the Pultrusion of Glass Fiber/Polyethylene Terephthalate Commingled Yarns

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,

Influence of Geometric Design on Mechanical Performance of Auxetic Metastructure

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Strategic geometric reinforcement transforms auxetic performance. This study evaluates 3D‐printed arrowhead metastructures, revealing that a modified design with local ring reinforcement suppresses premature failure to achieve superior energy absorption and structural efficiency.

Experimental Characterization of Mycelium‐Based Composites Under Multiple Loading Conditions

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines the mechanical response of mycelium‐based composites under compression, shear, and tension using mechanical testing and imaging methods. The comparison between unpressed and hot‐pressed specimens shows that hot pressing is associated with higher compression and shear stiffnesses.

Experimental and Numerical Modal Analysis of Composite Sandwich Structures Using Surfboards as Model Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This article presents an experimental and numerical modal investigation of composite sandwich structures using surfboards as model systems. By comparing different core materials and reinforcement strategies, the study demonstrates how local stiffeners influence vibrational response and introduce characteristic modal features, highlighting modal ...
