Assessment of static and dynamic stresses horse-shoe tunnel with connecting gallery using finite element method: (as a case study) [PDF]
This paper illustrates the use of MIDAS GTS NX to investigate the tunnel’s simulation in order to highlight the effect of static and dynamic load on the behaviour of tunnel to compare this response expressed in terms of displacement and stresses ...

A Non‐Reciprocal Architected Porous Medium
ABSTRACT In several fluid flow, energy‐dumping, and energy‐harvesting applications, a dominant flow direction or dominant resistance direction is desirable. In this study, we propose a simple modular geometry that doubles flow resistance in one direction relative to the opposite direction, while maintaining laminar viscous flow.

Innovative all composite multi-pultrusion truss system for stressed arch deployable shelters [PDF]
Trusses are one of the successful structural forms that have been utilised, at extended scale, since the nineteen century. Fibre composite materials are relatively new to civil engineering applications. The increased interest in using composites in civil

Coagulative granular hydrogels are composed of packed thrombin‐functionalized microgels that catalyze the conversion of fibrinogen into a secondary fibrin network, filling the interstitial voids. This bio‐inspired approach stabilizes the biomaterial to match the robustness of bulk hydrogels without compromising injectability, mimicking the initial ...

Waste glass as additive to clayey material in subgrade and embankment of road pavement [PDF]
In this paper the possibility of using waste glass in road construction is discussed. Samples of clay material with the addition of waste glass were subjected to a series of laboratory geotechnical tests performed at the Laboratory of Geotechnics at ...
