Fiber Reinforced Polymer Strengthening of Structures by Near-Surface Mounting Method [PDF]
Polymers, 2016 This paper provides a critical review of recent studies on strengthening of reinforced concrete and unreinforced masonry (URM) structures by fiber reinforced polymers (FRP) through near-surface mounting (NSM) method. The use of NSM-FRP has been on the rise, mainly due to composite materials’ high strength and stiffness, non-corrosive nature and ease of

In-plane shear strength of solid clay brick masonry reinforced with near surface mounted steel bars
Case Studies in Construction Materials, 2022 Structural walls made of solid brick masonry have been used for centuries in old buildings, which are vulnerable to earthquakes. Reinforcing this type of walls may increase the overall building seismic strength.

Amplifying head movements with head-mounted displays [PDF]
, 2003 The head-mounted display (HMD) is a popular form of virtual display due to its ability to immerse users visually in virtual environments (VEs). Unfortunately, the user's virtual experience is compromised by the narrow field of view (FOV) it affords ...

Subsonic near-surface P-velocity and low S-velocity observations using propagator inversion [PDF]
, 2005 Detailed knowledge of near-surface P- and S-wave velocities is important for processing and interpreting multicomponent land seismic data because (1) the entire wavefield passes through and is influenced by the near-surface soil conditions, (2) both ...
