In situ determination of stress, strength, and deformation of soils for direct assessment of trafficability and susceptibility to compaction has been a long-standing problem in soil mechanics and agricultural engineering. Despite considerable progress in d ...
This paper proposes an analytical method to assess softerror rate (SER) in the early stages of a System-on-Chip (SoC) platform-based design methodology. The proposed method uses an executable UML model of the SoC for its input. Soft-errors on the design ar ...
Natural and compacted soils are usually characterized by aggregation of particles. The mechanical behaviour of these materials depends on soil structure. The oedometric compression tests performed on aggregated samples presented here showed that these mate ...
The history and chem. are described of onium compds., saltlike compds. contg. a complex cation in which the central atom is of an element with nonmetallic character. [on SciFinder (R)] ...
The importance of Fibre Reinforced Polymers (FRPs) as a material used for civil engineering purposes has grown in the last decade. Especially the introduction of pultrusion at an industrial level as a way to produce big batches of FRP made it possible to o ...
The short-term mechanical strength of platelet-reinforced polymer composites was modeled using classical two-dimensional stress-transfer analysis. The stress field in the platelet and at the platelet/matrix interface was described in the presence of a matr ...

A two-dimensional triangular spring network model is used to investigate the time-dependent damage evolution and failure of model materials in which the damage formation is a nucleated event. The probability of damage formation r(i)(t) at site i at time t ...
Damage evolution and time-to-failure are investigated for a model material in which damage formation is a stochastic event. Specifically, the probability of failure at any site at time t is proportional to sigma(i)(t)(eta), where sigma(i)(t) is the local s ...
