Water content determinations for peat and other organic soils using the oven-drying method
(2014)There has been much debate in literature over the past 60 years regarding an appropriate oven-drying temperature for water content determinations on peat and other organic soils. For inorganic soils, the water content is ... -
Wavelet‐based individual blade pitch control for vibration control of wind turbine blades
(2019)This paper proposes a novel individual blade pitch control strategy with the objective of reducing blade vibration. A wavelet linear quadratic regulator (LQR) control algorithm, which is an advanced modification of the ... -
Wavelet-Based Evolutionary Response of Multi-Span Structures Including Wave-Passage and Site-Response Effects

Wavelet-Bayesian hierarchical stochastic model for short-term traffic flow at noncritical junctions
(2008)In ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) equipped urban transportation systems noncritical junctions are often ignored in short-term traffic condition prediction algorithms as the traffic data collection systems in ... -
Weathering and consolidation trials on sandstones used in Irish Monuments.
(LNEC, Laboratorio Nacional de Engenharia Civil, Lisbon, 2008)The objective of this study was to assess the efficiency of consolidant treatments in improving the durability of Irish sandstones, particularly sandstones used in national monuments at Cashel, Clonfert and Clonmacnoise. ... -
What causes energy and transport poverty in Ireland? Analysing demographic, economic, and social dynamics and policy implications
(2022)Energy and transport poverty have been postulated as conditions linked by overlapping causal factors such as structural economic inequality or housing stock and affecting overlapping demographics such as family size or ... -
A wolf in sheep's clothing: Exposing the structural violence of private electric automobility
(2023)The world is running out of time to avoid cataclysmic climate impacts. Therefore, determining which decarbonisation strategies are more effective and inclusive in reducing anthropogenic dependency on fossil fuels is vital ... -
The Yield Behavior of Leighton Buzzard Sand in a Hollow Cylinder Apparatus
(2005)The yield behavior of Leighton Buzzard sand was investigated for different magnitudes of the three principal stresses and rotation of the major principal stress axis using a hollow cylinder apparatus. The magnitude of the ... -
Yield Behavior of Sand Under Generalized Stress Conditions
(2005)The yield behavior of Leighton Buzzard sand was studied for different magnitudes of the three principal stresses and different orientations of the major principal stress using a hollow cylinder apparatus. Stress paths were ... -

Zero-pad Effects on Conditional Simulation and Application of Spatially-varying Earthquake Motions
(2012)Realistic simulated ground motion are required for testing heath monitoring algorithms in connection with seismic excitations. To this end spatially-varying ground motions are important for long span structures such as ...
