Hydromechanical modeling of unsaturated soils considering compaction effects on soil physical and hydraulic properties
(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024)
Acceso abierto
This study presents a methodology that includes hydraulic and mechanical constitutive relationships for modeling the complex volumetric behavior of unsaturated soils. The mechanical relationships are based on the generalized ...
A hemivariational damageable elastoplastic vertex-spring model for masonry analysis
(SAGE Publications Inc., 2024)
Acceso restringido
This work is an intermediate step towards the extension of a recently proposed block-based model for masonry structures, which was based on a hemivariational approach and inspired from granular micromechanics. Here, ...
Influence of fibres on the resilient modulus and expansion of clayey subgrade soils
(Taylor and Francis, 2024)
Acceso abierto
Expansive clayey soils at the subgrade level of roads and highways in different cities can affect the performance and durability of pavements. This increases the need for maintenance and conservation work, leading to higher ...
Effect of mixed alkali ions on the structural and spectroscopic properties of Nd3+ doped silicate glasses
(Elsevier, 2024)
Acceso abierto
In the present work the effect of alkali ions (Li, Na, K) and the combination of them on structural and spectroscopic properties of Nd3+ doped silicate glasses were systematically investigated. Results from infrared and ...
Influence of Alkali Metal Ions on the Structural and Spectroscopic Properties of Sm3+-Doped Silicate Glasses
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2023)
Acceso abierto
In the present work, the influence of alkali ions (Li, Na, K) on the structural and spectroscopic properties of silica glasses doped with Sm3+ was investigated. Infrared and Raman spectroscopy techniques were used to ...
VDC framework proposal for curtain wall construction process optimization
(CRC Press, 2023)
Acceso restringido
A building is made up of structural and non-structural elements. Among these are the curtain wall systems. The curtain walls are glazed elements that can cover the building façade entirely and provide thermal and enclosure ...
Construction process time optimization of a reinforced concrete reaction slab, implementing the VDC methodology
(CRC Press, 2023)
Acceso restringido
The Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry has shown low productivity levels, mainly due to the fragmentation between the agents involved. Given this, the industry is modernizing and implementing ...
