EVALUATION OF THE SEASONAL VARIATION IN HYDRAULIC CONDUCTIVITY FOR AN EVAPOTRANSPIRATION COVER SYSTEM
(2019-07-10)The purpose of landfill cover systems is to minimize, and if possible prevent the interaction of the environment with the buried waste mass. In this effort, one of the most prevalent parameters to control is the percolation ... -
Evaluation of the Structural Performance of Bridge MSE Retaining Walls
(2019-12-06)Mechanically Stabilized Earth (MSE) walls have been used extensively since the first MSE wall constructed in California in the early 70’s. MSE walls proved that they are reliable, cost-effective, aesthetically pleasing, ... -
EVALUATION OF THE USE OF ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS FOR STRENGTHENING CONCRETE MEMBERS REINFORCED BY FIBER-REINFORCED-POLYMER (FRP) LAMINATE
(2020-11-30)An anchorage system is the most effective method for preventing or delaying the debonding of fiber-reinforced polymer laminates; however, despite extensive studies, the related design information is still unclear and limits ... -
Evaluation Of Tissue Response From The Regenerative Multielectrode Array (REMI) Implant Using ATF-3 And cJun
(Biomedical Engineering, 2014-03-10)Currently available peripheral nerve regenerative interfaces such as the sieve and the micro-channel regenerative electrode, intended to be used for the control and natural feel from advanced robotic prosthetic devices, ... -
Evaluation Of Training Needs For Building Information Modeling (BIM)
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2011-10-11)The basic premise of Building Information Modeling (BIM) is to use and share the digital model of a project as a source of information for all participants, in order to simulate and analyze potential problems during the ... -
Evaluation Of Trenchless Renewal Methods For Potable Water Distribution Pipes
(Civil & Environmental Engineering, 2011-03-03)Undoubtedly, potable water pipes, as part of an underground infrastructure system, play a key role in maintaining quality of life, health and well being of human kind. As these potable water pipes reach the end of their ... -
An Evaluation Of Using Component Mode Synthesis For Structural Models
(Mechanical Engineering, 2007-08-23)Structural analysts have used component mode synthesis (CMS), also known as substructuring, for decades to divide large structural models into smaller, more manageable models, and to reduce the size of the associated ... -
EVALUATION OF VERTICAL AND LATERAL LOAD CAPACITY OF RECYCLED PLASTIC PIN
(2023-12-13)RPPs have been in use as a sustainable and effective technique to stabilize and reinforce weak ground for geotechnical purposes. Application of RPP in stabilization of slopes and improvement of load carrying capacity of ... -
Evaluation of Water consumption and savings achieved in Datacenters through Air side Economization
(2017-01-13)Recent researches and a few facility owners have focused on eliminating the chiller plant altogether by implementing ‘Evaporative Cooling’, as an alternative or augmentation to compressor-based air conditioning since the ... -
Evaporative Cooling Performance Of A Brazed Microporous Coating On An Aluminum Surface
(Mechanical Engineering, 2012-04-11)The effect of an aluminum microporous coating on evaporative cooling performance was studied using distilled water as the working fluid. The aluminum microporous coating was fabricated by brazing aluminum particles to an ... -
Evaporative hotspot cooling of microprocessors using electrowetting on dielectric (EWOD)
