Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleComparative Assessment of Analytical models for the ULS Resistance Verification of Structural Glass Elements under Variable LoadsChiara Bedon, Claudio AmadioThe design of glass structures, due to the intrinsic material properties, is mainly governed by the typical tensile brittle behavior of the material. In this regard, a currently open question related to the use of glass in buildings as a load-bearing constructional material, is represented by the correct estimation of static fatigue phenomena due to a generic combination of design … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2017 · 7,761 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleUsage of Lightning Arrester Line to Feed Light Electrical LoadsHani Bani Odeh, Yousif El-TousIn remote areas, light loads (tens of kilowatts) are scattered and situated in the field of high voltage lines (66KV and above). These loads are very far from the main feeders/sub-stations (33KV-0.380KV). Feeding such loads in the traditional ways like provision of Diesel-Powered Stations, installation of new distribution lines from the Feeding Centers, or building new Sub-Stations are not practical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,228 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInvestigation of Pile- Soil Interaction Subjected to Lateral Loads in Layered SoilsA. Avaei, Abdoul R. Ghotbi, M. AryafarTo stabilize infrastructures such as tall buildings, bridges, etc., piles are used to resist lateral loads created from earth pressure, wind, waves and earthquake extensively. Pile design requires understanding of how the load is transferred from a pile to surrounding soil and vice versa. Pile properties, soil stress-strain behavior and pile-soil interaction play important roles in pile-response subjected to lateral … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,339 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Determination of the Tunnel Structure Loads Through the Analysis of the Interaction between the Void and the Support Using the Convergence-Confinement MethodPierpaolo OresteThe evaluation of the load acting on a tunnel support is of fundamental importance for the correct dimensioning of the structure when analytical calculation methods are used. The load acting on the support depends on various factors and for this reason its evaluation can appear somewhat complex. One way of evaluating the load acting on a support is to use … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 11 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFinite Element Evaluation of RC Frames Strengthened with FRPs under Fire and Lateral LoadsReza Salehi, Abbas AkbarpourReinforced concrete is one of the most common structures in the world. These structures may be under extreme loading conditions such as earthquake or they may confront with other flooding, impact or even the fire load. In the term of fire load, RC structures are very sensitive and due to the brittle behavior, the fast collapsing happens. In this research, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 27 Sep 2020 · 6,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEffect of Varying Loads on Wear Behaviour of Constructional SteelAlo Francis Ireti, Emordi Ngozi, Kunle Michael Oluwasegun et al.This study examined the effect of varying loads on wear behaviour of Ife constructional steel. The wear measurements were determined under normal ranging from 5 to 25 N at interval of 5 N incremental. The morphology of the corroded samples were carried out using optical microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). When a load of 5 N was used, the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2018 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePrediction of Residual Axial Load Carrying Capacity of Reinforced Concrete (RC) Columns Subjected to Extreme Dynamic LoadsMasoud Abedini, Azrul A. Mutalib, Sudharshan N. Raman et al.The evaluation of residual axial load carrying capacity of Reinforced Concrete (RC) columns to explosion load is significant for protection of buildings. The few investigations conducted on residual axial load carrying capacity of RC columns when subjected to blast loads. Therefore, the overall aim of this research is to generate equations on the blast capacity of axially and uniaxial loaded … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 5 May 2017 · 8,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleParasitic Loads and Growth Performance of Goats and Kids under Sequential and Mixed Species Grazing with Cattle at a Constant Stocking RateRenita Woods Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Shonta Manuel et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of sequential and mixed species grazing on parasitic loads and growth performance of goat kids. The study was conducted between June and October, 2013. Forty eight (48) "Spanish" kids and 28 Brangus calves were randomly divided into four treatment groups; goats grazing alone (GOA, control), Goats Followed by Cattle (GFC), … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,537 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDynamic Response of Loads on Viscously Damped Axial Force Rayleigh BeamI. A. Adetunde, Baba SeiduThis research examines the effects of moving loads on viscously damped axial force Rayleigh beam. The authors especially tried to find the effect of the moving mass and moving force in connection with the length of the span of a Rayleigh beam. The authors also examined the effect of the lengths of the beam and of the load. It was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 13 Aug 2012 · 6,579 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag Mitigation in a Refinery with Induction Motors LoadsTarek I. El-Shennawy, Abdel-Mon’em Moussa, Mahmoud A. El-Gammal, Amr Y. Abou-GhazalaProblem statement: ANRPC is a refinery based in Alexandria, Egypt. The plant was subjected to several shutdowns due to tripping of large induction motors, either by under voltage or by over current relays, sometimes by the mechanical protection. The main cause for such unplanned shutdowns was voltage sags. The Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) has recently been introduced to protect the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,922 accessesView PDFCite
