3D deformation and strain fields in drying kaolinite obtained from tracking internal bubbles using X-ray CT and ANN
(2024)Drying fine-grained sediments experience shrinkage and desiccation cracking that may dramatically alter their mechanical and hydraulic properties. This study adopts X-ray computed tomography (CT) to monitor the three-dimensional ... -
Enhancing the reliability of floating offshore wind turbine towers subjected to misaligned wind-wave loading using tuned mass damper inerters (TMDIs)
(2023)Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are the largest rotating structures on the earth. Dynamically sensitive structures such as these must be protected in these environments to ensure that they can continue to operate ... -
Investigation of Phosphorescent Materials for Photovoltaic Device Applications
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Disc of Civil Structural & Environmental Eng, 2019)Phosphorescence is used in photovoltaic devices by embedding phosphorescence species within a transparent host polymer to absorb ultraviolet solar radiation followed by a slow emission of visible light. Phosphorescent ... -
A time and ensemble equivalent linearization method for nonlinear systems under combined harmonic and random excitation
(2023)An Equivalent Linearization technique, termed an Equivalent Linearization Time and Ensemble Expectation (EL-TEE) approach, is used to develop an alternative method for estimating the response of a nonlinear oscillator to ...
