Abstract

This work includes the numerical simulation of different locations within one meter thick walls experimentally investigated by Mangold (1994). Mangold simulated the hardening process in different walls during the frist seven days with the help of a so called "cracking frame". [...]

Abstract

Elbows are components in piping systems whose primary function is to achieve a change in flow direction. Their study is relevant, since they present higher stress levels than those observed in straight sections. Early investigations determined that this effect is caused by the [...]

Abstract

The study and development of recycling techniques for pavements is an increasing activity in engineering nowadays. This research line demands a more [...]
