GEO+, a finite element program on a personal computer
(Texas A&M University, 1993)
The following study is the first step toward implementation of a complete finite element analysis package on a personal computer for geotechnical engineering problems. A complete finite element analysis has been written ...
Analytical modeling of composite steel-concrete frame systems
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
Equivalent macromodel based analytical tools, comprised of flexibility-based element models, are used to accurately represent the non-linear moment-curvature (force-deformation) response characteristics in structural systems ...
Design and development of a laboratory suction measuring device
(Texas A&M University, 1996)
The compaction of the landfill clay liner at wet of optimum moisture content with a suitable type of compaction is the most common way of decreasing liner hydraulic conductivity. However, when the clay liner compacted in ...
Feasibility of the design of dual-lane ramp meters in Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
As recurrent congestion and the number of vehicles on urban freeways in Texas have increased, the ability to effectively meter traffic using single-lane ramp meters has deteriorated. Other state departments of transportation ...
An analysis of the multiple paths used in traffic assignment algorithms
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Historically, the four-step planning process has been used to estimate future roadway volumes and identify future roadway needs. Recently, the focus has shifted to the use of planning models to make system operations ...
Relationship between speed distribution measures and rural two-lane highway characteristics
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Understanding the behavior of speed population distributions on rural two-lane highways is needed to address driver error associated with elements of the highway. Previous research has identified a direct relationship ...
Enhanced desorption of 2,4,6 Trinitrotoluene
(Texas A&M University, 1997)
Trinitrotoluene (TNT) has been the most commonly used explosive. The production process generates large quantities of waste contaminated with TNT. Most of these wastes were dumped in designated disposal sites. Over the ...
Load distribution effects and repair procedures for existing skewed plate girder bridges
(Texas A&M University, 1992)
Not available
Overload permit rules applicable to H-type and HS-type bridges
(Texas A&M University, 1994)
This document defines standards for issuing permits for overweight vehicles crossing standard H-type and HS-type Texas highway bridges. A general formula and a bridge specific formula have been developed for simple spans ...
Spectral analysis of slender tensioned cylinder interaction
(Texas A&M University, 1998)
A Tension Leg Platform (TLP) is a floating deep-water compliant structure that utilizes a system of slender vertical tensioned structural members, i.e. tendons, to provide station keeping. In the past most emphasis has ...
