In the present work, single- and double-dowel joints following different geometric configurations are experimentally and numerically investigated to derive the splitting behaviour of beech wood (Fagus sylvatica L.), one of the most widespread hardwood sp...

Mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) walls have been widely applied in construction to maintain the stability of high embankments. In Vietnam, imported reinforcement materials are expensive; thus, finding locally available materials for MSE walls is benef...

The direct-shear test is the primary method used to test the shear strength of transparent soil, but this experiment is complex and easily influenced by experimental conditions. In order to simplify the process of obtaining the shear strength of transpar...

Fatigue failure in asphalt pavements, caused by continuous loading, primarily occurs at the interface between the asphalt binder and the aggregate (adhesive failure) or within the asphalt binder itself (cohesive failure). This study conducted variable st...

Ontology merging is an important task in ontology engineering to date. However, despite the efforts devoted to ontology merging, the incorporation of relevant features of ontologies such as axioms, individuals and annotations in the output ontologies rem...

Recently, there has been increased discussion of entrepreneurship and innovation as process-based phenomena. However, research on the essence of dynamic entrepreneurial and innovation processes and their simultaneous interactions needs to be more cohesiv...

Rigid monopiles with small slenderness ratios (i.e., ratio of monopile embedded length to outer diameter) are widely used as foundations to resist lateral load and moment transferred from superstructures, e.g., large diameter steel pipes used by offshore...

The paper presents results of experimental and theoretical studies on transport of water-sand mixtures in steady flow with small amounts of cohesive fractions. The experiments were carried out for sand alone and with cohesive admixtures in the form of cl...

Flexible pipes are extensively used to connect seabed and floating production systems for the development of deep-water oil and gas. In the top connection area, end fitting (EF) is the connector between the flexible pipe and floating platform, as a criti...

Bonded joints used in wing sections and frames of aircraft structures are mostly exposed to cyclic loadings instead of static ones during their services. Bending types of dynamic loadings are mostly encountered. In this study, the fatigue response of a s...
