Structural Behaviour of Axially Loaded Concrete-Filled Steel Tube Columns during the Top-Down Construction Method
(Applied Sciences, 2022)
The paper discusses the structural behaviour of concrete-filled steel tube columns (CFT)
when applied to the top-down construction method as temporary internal supports for ceilings. Their
ultimate capacity to take into ...
Service Life Design of Concrete Structures Made of High-Volume Limestone Powder Concrete—Case of the Carbonation-Induced Corrosion
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2023)
One of the paths to CO2 emissions reduction in the concrete industry is to use low-clinker cements, providing at the same time the performance of concrete that is adequate for application in concrete structures. This paper ...
Evaluation of Green and Grey Flood Mitigation Measures in Rural Watersheds
(MDPI, 2020)
Floods cause considerable damages worldwide and mitigation of their adverse effects through effective protection measures is needed. Along with the commonly applied “grey” infrastructure, “green” measures that can offer ...
Selection of wastewater treatment technology: AHP method in multi-criteria decision making
(MDPI, Basel, Switzerland, 2023)
Wastewater treatment is a process that reduces pollution to those quantities and concentrations at which purified wastewater is no longer a threat to human and animal health and safety and does not cause unwanted changes ...
Framework for Dynamic-Stiffness-Based Free Vibration Analysis of Plate-Like Structures
(Hindawi Limited, 2019)
A framework for free vibration analysis of plate-like structures is presented in the paper. Based on the previously formulated dynamic stiffness elements, FREEVIB object-oriented software in Python environment has been ...
The Impact on Karst Aquifer Regimes Induced by a Surface Reservoir in Karst through Multiparametric Analyses (Reservoir Bileća—Herzegovina)
(MDPI, 2023)
The results of long-term groundwater monitoring in the Bileća reservoir adjacent (eastern Herzegovina, Bosnia and Herzegovina) indicate that there is a good hydraulic connection between the reservoir and the karst aquifer ...
Long-Term Thermal Stress Analysis and Optimization of Contraction Joint Distance of Concrete Gravity Dams
(MDPI, 2022)
Results of the conducted research aiming to demonstrate the methodology of optimization of dam monolith length (distance between contraction joints), through monitoring the thermal tensile stresses during construction and ...
Sustainability assessment of recycled aggregate concrete structures: A critical view on the current state-of-knowledge and practice
(Wiley, 2023)
The environmental impacts of activities such as raw material extraction, construction
of infrastructure, and demolition, place construction as one of the
sectors that exert the highest pressures on the environment, ...
Detection and In-Depth Analysis of Causes of Delay in Construction Projects: Synergy between Machine Learning and Expert Knowledge
(Sustainability, 2022)
Due to numerous reasons, construction projects often fail to achieve the planned duration. Detecting causes of delays (CoD) is the first step in eliminating or mitigating potential delays in future projects. The goal of ...
Application of Hardening State Parameter Constitutive Model for Prediction of Overconsolidated Soft Clay Behavior Due to Embankment Loading
(MDPI / Applied Sciences, 2023)
This paper investigates the possibility of the application of the HArdening State Parameter (HASP) constitutive model for numerical modelling of overconsolidated soft clay under embankment loading. The HASP constitutive ...
