Trajectory-based interpretation of Young's experiment, the Arago-Fresnel laws and the Poisson-Arago spot for photons and massive particles
(Physica Scripta, 2013)
We present a trajectory-based interpretation of Young's experiment, the Arago-Fresnel laws and the Poisson-Arago spot. This approach is based on the equation of the trajectory associated with the quantum probability current ...
Stormwater biofilters: A new validation modelling tool
(Elsevier, 2016)
Stormwater biofilters must be validated before they can be a trusted component of the treatment train used for water supply augmentation. Currently, only in situ challenge testing is accepted for treatment validation, yet ...
Influence of femtosecond pulsed laser irradiation on bismuth germanium oxide single crystal properties
(Elsevier Ltd, 2016)
High quality bismuth germanium oxide single crystals were irradiated by a femtosecond pulsed laser beam of increasing power. Analyses performed on irradiated and unirradiated samples showed significant changes in transmittance, ...
Experimental results of reinforced concrete frames with masonry infills under combined quasi-static in-plane and out-of-plane seismic loading
(Springer, 2019)
It is generally known that reinforced concrete frame structures with unreinforced masonry infills frequently suffer severe damage when subjected to earthquake loading. Recent earthquakes show that the damage occurs to both ...
Enhanced Arsenic Removal from Water by Activated Red Mud Based on Hydrated Iron(III) and Titan(IV) Oxides
(Chemical Engineering Communications, 2012)
In this study, acid heat-activated neutralized red mud (AB) was promoted as an efficient sorbent for the removal of inorganic arsenic from water. Three sorbents: neutralized red mud (Bauxsol), acid-treated Bauxsol (aBauxsol), ...
Computation of Thermal-Stresses and Contraction Joint Distance of RCC Dams
(Journal of Thermal Stresses, 2013)
A new approach in 3D numerical modeling for unsteady phased thermal-stress analysis of a massive concrete hydraulic structure is presented. The temperature field is computed first, providing a drive for the unsteady, ...
Analysis based on the energy release rate criterion of a dynamically growing crack approaching an interface
(SAGE Publications Ltd, 2016)
A problem of a dynamically growing crack, which is approaching an interface between the two elastic isotropic materials at an arbitrary angle, is considered in this paper. That crack could behave in three ways: (i) it can ...
Garden cultural heritage spatial functionalities: The case of anamorphosis abscondita at Vaux-le-Vicomte
(Elsevier Masson SAS, 2016)
This paper analyzes the phenomenon of spatial functionalities for garden cultural heritage design and the relationships between the sizes of the sections and elements of the baroque garden of Vaux-leVicomte and the specific ...
Verification of deflection according to Eurocode 2
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017)
Code provisions for a simplified check of the long-term deflection of concrete structures are generally developed for predefined values of the relevant input parameters. Deflection calculation may be of interest to account ...
Strength of composite flysch samples under uniaxial compression
(Springer Verlag, 2018)
This paper presents the results of uniaxial compression strength tests performed on samples composed of sandstone and siltstone discs. Samples are loaded until failure, with the aim of determining the dependency between ...
