The study investigates how museum and gallery buildings can be designed to give functional longevity and appeal. It considers this in terms of their design and relation to their surroundings and use in the context of changing social, cultural, political and economic factors. Pos…
Adhesive joining is an attractive alternative to conventional joining methods, such as welding and mechanical fastening. The benefits of adhesive bonding include: the ability to form lightweight, high stiffness structures; joining of different types of materials; better fatigue …
Mechanical vehicle systems operate in highly variable loading environments. Anticipated and unanticipated degradations occur in components and subsystems due to the variability in static and dynamic loading. Degradation can lead to excessive warranty costs and overly aggressive …
In this research study, an attempt is made to address limitations in soil stabilization. Incorporation of the clay mineralogy aspects of the soils into the stabilization design process was first addressed, followed by durability studies to address the long-term effectiveness of …
