  • Soil stiffness nonlinearity in one-dimensional pile-driving simulations and formulas 
    Loukidis, Dimitrios; Abou-Jaoude, Grace; Salgado, Rodrigo; Zhang, Yanbei; Bisht, Vibhav (ASTM International, 2022-06-14)
    Driven piles are commonly used as foundation elements in engineering projects. Due to their simplicity, pile-driving formulas have been widely used in practice to estimate static pile capacity based on observations made ...
  • Space schedule construction 
    Zouein, Pierrette P. (2018-10-15)
    The layout of temporary facilities on a construction site is affected by changes in a construction schedule, including changes in activity duration, resource selection, and resource allocation levels. Conversely, changes ...
  • Space scheduling for construction progress planning and control 
    Zouein, P.P.; Tommelien, I.D. (2018-10-15)
    Space scheduling pertains to allocating the work space to resources associated which activates in a schedule as it changes over time. This is an important aspect of materials management in dynamic environments in which ...

    In this paper, we present the construction of full rate, fully diverse, and totally real space-time (ST) codes for ultra-wideband (UWB) transmissions. In particular, we construct two families of codes adapted to real ...
  • Spatial and temporal assessment of metal pollution in the sediments of the Qaraoun reservoir, Lebanon 
    Wazne, Mahmoud; Korfali, Samira (2016-06-09)
    This study reports on metal (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, and Zn) pollution in the sediments of the Qaraoun reservoir over a span period of 9 years (2004, 2008, and 2013) along with key major environmental indicators. This time ...
  • Spatial multiplexing for photon-counting MIMO-FSO communication systems 
    Abou-Rjeily, Chadi (2018-11-26)
    In this paper, we consider the problem of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) free-space optical communications under the Poisson photon-counting detection model. Aiming for high bit rate objectives, we consider the ...
  • Spherical cavity-expansion forcing function in PRONTO 3D for application to penetration problems 
    Tabbara, Mazen R.; Warren, Thomas L. (Scitech Connect, 2017-07-31)
    In certain penetration events the primary mode of deformation of the target can be approximated by known analytical expressions. In the context of an analysis code, this approximation eliminates the need for modeling the ...
  • Spreading of non-planar non-axisymmetric gravity and turbidity currents 
    Zgheib, Nadim; Bonometti, Thomas; Balachandar, S. (2019-12-02)
    The dynamics of non-axisymmetric turbidity currents is considered here. The study comprises a series of experiments for which a finite volume of particle-laden solution is released into fresh water. A mixture of water and ...

    Habchi, Wassim; Eyheramendy, D.; Vergne, P.; Morales-Espejel, G. (2015-09-21)
    This work presents a model for elastohydrodynamic (EHD) lubrication problems. A finite element full-system approach is employed. The hydrodynamic and elastic problems are solved simultaneously which leads to fast convergence ...
  • Stable path of interacting crack systems and micromechanics of damage 
    Tabbara, Mazen R.; Kazemi, Mohammad T.; Bazant, Zdenek P. (2018-02-20)
    Micromechanics of damage in brittle heterogeneous materials and composites requires analysis of a system of interacting cracks. The response path of a crack system typically exhibits bifurcations such that the states on ...
