Measured Performance and Numerical Analysis of Buried Pipe
This study shows that the behavior of a soil pipe system can be assessed by a nonlinear elasto-plastic finite element analysis. The results of numerical calculations are compared to the...

Structural FRP Composites
Fiber-reinforced plastics are only just being discovered by civil engineers. Long used in expensive military and aerospace applications, they are beginning to find their way into structures....

Application of BEM to Two-Dimensional EPFM
This paper describes the authors' current and continuing research in application of the Boundary Element Method (BEM) to crack growth problems in Elastoplastic Fracture Mechanics...

System Identification of Earth Dams Using Seismic Records
A technique to identify the elasto-plastic dynamic properties of earth dams and, therefore to asses the capabilities and limitation of their models, is developed. The technique is based...

Avoiding Cracks in Brickwork
Many aspects of movement and differential movement have been discussed. However, other movements and effects of movement that have not been discussed may also affect the performance of...
