Investigating Stage Construction in High Concrete Arch Dams
Indian Journal of Science and Technology, 2015 Concrete arch dam is a complex geometric structure and designing such a structure requires experience and high knowledge. One of the important parameters in designing concrete arch dams is the tensile stress in arch concrete material. The static analysis results of high arch dam structure depend on structure analysis model, intensively.

National Colonialism: Nation‐State, Colonialism and Colonisation of Kurdistan
Nations and Nationalism, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article develops the concept of ‘national colonialism’ to capture colonial relations in the nation‐state form. It does so through a critical appraisal of the concept of ‘internal colonialism’, which largely fails to explain the links between nationalism and colonial relations.
