Evaluation of compression members with non-ideal end conditions
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
This thesis presents the results of research in which a formulation was developed for the effective length factor for compression members with non-ideal end conditions. This research stems from previous research conducted ...
Development of a failure prediction method for grout filled damaged tubular members
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
This paper presents the results of research regarding the existing failure prediction method and the development of an improved failure prediction method for grout filled damaged tubulars. The types of damaged addressed ...
Influence of coarse aggregate size, shape and surface texture on rutting of hot mix asphalt concrete
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
The objectives of this study were to: 1 ) Evaluate the influence of coarse aggregate shape and surface texture on deformation characteristics of asphalt concrete, 2) Characterize aggregate elongation, shape and texture ...
Effective forces in saturated clays
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
This paper is the culmination of a five-phase research effort investigating overpressured soil and rock formations. These formations, found all over the world, at varying depths, contain pore water confined at pressures ...
The effects of aggregate gradation on moisture diffusivity in a cementious based material
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
The effects of aggregate gradation on moisture diffusivity in concrete are investigated. The method involves a factorial design that considers two types of gradation (Gap Gradation and Optimum Gradation), aggregate type ...
A mesoscopic view of speed, flow, density, and distance relationships
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
Traffic engineers have studied speed-flow-density relationships for close to 60 years. However, the debate over the exact relationships for these traffic stream characteristics continues. Although a variety of models ...
