The Effect of Acceleration Signal Length on the Outputs from Modal Identification Methods
(2023)The damping ratio is a significant factor influencing the dynamic behaviour of a structure. The safety, serviceability and habitability of a structure are all impacted by the damping ratio. Damping ratio does not relate ... -
Effect of chitin, chitosan and NaCMC biopolymers on the consistency limits of organic silt
(2024)With global concerns on carbon emissions, there is increased need for various eco-friendly alternatives to conventional (cement and lime) additives used in ground improvement applications. This paper investigates the ... -
Effect of clear-felling and harvest residue removal on nitrogen and phosphorus export from drained norway spruce mires in southern finland
(2015)Calibration-period/control-area approach was used to study nitrogen and phosphorus export from drained and productive Norway-spruce-dominated peatland forests follow- ing conventional stem-only and ... -
Effect of decomposition on physical properties of fibrous peat
(2014)Organic matter in peat deposits undergoes slow microbial decomposition, which causes permanent material change, including reduction in volume of solids, and is a significant factor in the development of creep settlements ... -
Effect of decomposition on the compressibility of fibrous peat
(ACSE: Reston, VA, USA, 2012) -
Effect of friction fatigue on pile capacity in dense sand
(2007)The paper presents the results of a series of field tests performed to study the causes of friction fatigue experienced by displacement piles. Four instrumented model piles were installed at a dense sand test-bed site. The ... -
EFFECT OF POZZOLAN PROPERTIES ON THE PROPERTIES OF BUILDING COMPOSITES
(2010)Pozzolans were used by ancient civilizations to enhance the properties of mortars and concrete and are now regaining popularity as sustainable, environmentally-friendly alternatives to cement. This paper studies the ... -
Effect of salt grain additions on fibrous peat consolidation
(2015)Peat has been considered a problematic geotechnical material, with extremely high water content, low shear strength and high compressibility. Although initially high, fibrous peat undergoes dramatic reductions in permeability ... -
Effect of the early dissolution of Al-phases in reactive industrial wastes, on the setting times and rheology of sustainable binders
(2022)Aluminium-containing minerals in industrial wastes are relatively common, and they have potential as pozzolans or geopolymer precursors for the production of sustainable cements. The availability of reactive Al plays an ... -
Effective stress testing of peat
(2013)Recent peat soil problems, including failures of dykes, foundations and slopes in peat deposits, have focused greater attention on understanding the mechanical behavior of peat. Stability calculations routinely involve ...
