Sustainability-Oriented Multi-Criteria Analysis of Different Continuous Flight Auger Piles
(MDPI, 2021)
With increasing construction activity and concrete consumption globally, the economic,
environmental, and social impacts of human activities continue to increase rapidly. Therefore, it is
imperative to assess the choice ...
Bohmian-Based Approach to Gauss-Maxwell Beams
(MDPI, 2020)
Usual Gaussian beams are particular scalar solutions to the paraxial Helmholtz equation,
which neglect the vector nature of light. In order to overcome this inconvenience, Simon et al.
(J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 1986, 3, 536–540) ...
Flexible Pile Group Interaction Factors under Arbitrary Lateral Loading in Sand
(MDPI, 2020)
Marine and harbor structures, wind turbines, bridges, offshore platforms, industrial
chimneys, retaining structures etc. can be subjected to significant lateral loads from various sources. Appropriate assessment of the ...
The Impact of Recycled Concrete Aggregate on the Stiffness, Fatigue, and Low-Temperature Performance of Asphalt Mixtures for Road Construction
(MDPI, 2020)
The need for road (re)construction materials is constantly growing. At the same time, there
is a limited quantity of new, high-quality materials available and a buildup of secondary/recycled
construction materials. One ...
Determination of Mohr-Coulomb Parameters for Modelling of Concrete
(Crystals / MDPI, 2020)
Cohesion is defined as the shear strength of material when compressive stress is zero. This article presents a new method for the experimental determination of cohesion at pre-set angles of shear deformation. Specially ...
Towards a codified design of recycled aggregate concrete structures: background for the new fib Model Code 2020 and Eurocode 2
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2020)
The use of recycled aggregate (RA) to produce recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) is a proven way of decreasing the consumption of natural aggregate (NA) and landfilling of construction and demolition waste. However, adoption ...
Has the latest global financial crisis changed the way road public-private partnerships are funded? A comparison of Europe and Latin America
(Elsevier, 2020)
A financial/economic crisis may have an adverse effect on transport public-private partnerships (PPPs) as both traffic demand is negatively influenced, and governments are further under pressure. However, research on awarded ...
Report of RILEM TC 281-CCC: outcomes of a round robin on the resistance to accelerated carbonation of Portland, Portland-fly ash and blast-furnace blended cements
(Springer, 2022)
Many (inter)national standards exist to evaluate the resistance of mortar and concrete to carbonation. When a carbonation coefficient is used for performance comparison of mixtures or service life prediction, the applied ...
On the difference of coefficients of univalent functions
(Faculty of Sciences and Mathematics, University of Niš, Serbia, 2021)
Sharp Bounds for Trigonometric and Hyperbolic Functions with Application to Fractional Calculus
(MDPI, 2022)
A new situation to note about the obtained boundaries is the symmetry in the upper and lower boundary, where the upper boundary differs by a constant from the lower boundary. New consequences of the inequalities were ...
