Nonlinear analysis of thin-wall cylindrical liquid storage reservoirs under seismic action
(WCEE, 2000)
This paper summarizes some of the results of a comprehensive theoretical investigation concerning the seismic response of ground supported liquid storage reservoirs. Dynamic properties of the fluid-shell interaction system ...
Role of upstream planform curvature at asymmetrical river confluences–laboratory experiment revisited
(Kubaba Congress Department and Travel Services, 2008)
River confluence hydrodynamics is influenced by different controls such as the junction angle, bed elevation discordance between incoming streams, upstream planform curvature, momentum ratio values of the confluent streams, ...
Punching failure mechanism at edge columns of post-tensioned lift slabs
(Engineering Structures, 2008)
A test program designed to evaluate the punching shear strength of unbonded post-tensioned lift flat slabs at edge columns is described. Three isolated specimens, which represented a part of the edge panel in the vicinity ...
Design and construction of DELTA CITY shopping mall concrete structure in Belgrade
(CRC Press/Balkema, 2008)
The structure of DELTA CITY shopping mall in Belgrade consists oftwo separated structures: the structure of the mall and the structure of the multi-story open garage. The overall dimensions of the irregular layout of the ...
Nonlinear finite element anal ysis of punching strength of lift slabs at edge columns
(Publisbing Company of Budapest University of Tecbnology and Economics, 2005)
The experimental investigation of punching shear strength of post-tensioned lift slab-edge column connection was simulated using the DIANA Finite Element System. One of the tested specimens was modeled by solid elements ...
Method for water distribution systems reliability evaluation
(International Environmental Modelling and Software Societey, 2004)
A new methodology for water resources systems reliability evaluation is presented. The proposed methodology considers both: mechanical reliability (probability of pipe failure) and reliability of hydraulic parameters in ...
Inefficiency of storm water inlets as a source of urban floods
(IWA Publishing, 2005)
The paper attempts to explain sources of surplus storm water runoff in urban areas, particularly in relation with functioning of inlets. Inlet capacity (quantity of captured water) and inlet efficiency (portion of the ...
Numerical simulation of ash-spills induced by dike failure on ash tailings impoundments - a case study
(Taylor & Francis Group, 2005)
A model developed for simulation of both discontinuous clear-water flows and hyper-concentrated discontinuous flows is validated on a real dike failure event, which happened on an ash-tailings impoundment on site. Numerical ...
Transposing an Octogonal Cupola of Second Sort Into a Bionic Polyspherical Form
(Dresden: Technische Universität Dresden; International Society for Geometry and Graphics (ISGG), 2008)
In the paper there is presented a method of transposing a polyhedral structure, composed of two
regular polygons: octagon and hexadecagon as the bases, and the envelope formed of equilateral triangular strip, which is ...
