Hybrid FRP Strengthening of Slender Steel Members for Buckling Control
(ASCE, 2020-10-01)In this paper, the structural properties and behaviour of slender steel members strengthened against buckling by a hybrid system of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) shells filled with self-consolidating grout (SCG), in the ... -
A Hybrid Perturbation and Morris Approach for Identifying Sensitive Parameters in Surface Water Quality Models
(2008-12)Surface water quality models (SWQM) are always developed as universal frameworks so that they can be flexibly employed to simulate a large variety of water bodies. These models are often over-parameterized (more parameters ... -
Hybrid system of longitudinal CFRP laminates and GFRP wraps for strengthening of existing circular concrete columns
(Elsevier, 2021-05-15)This paper presents an investigation on the behavior of a strengthening system of longitudinal premanufactured carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) laminates and transverse glass FRP (GFRP) wrapping for strengthening of ... -
Hydraulic and strength performance of three cement-stabilized soils subjected to cycles of freezing and thawing
(NRC Research Press, 2015-03)A total of 108 specimens were prepared to examine the hydraulic performance and strength performance of nine different cement-stabilized soils under unexposed and freeze–thaw exposed conditions. Specimens from each mix ... -

Investigation of the Stress-Strain Constitutive Behavior of ±55° Filament Wound GFRP Pipes in Compression and Tension
(Elsevier, 2019-05-09)The behavior of hollow ±55o filament wound glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) pipes under longitudinal compressive and tensile loading is studied experimentally using 31 pipe specimens. The main parameters were the ... -
Investigation of weld effective length rules for CHS X-connections
(Balkema, 2017)A laboratory-based test program was conducted to assess the performance of fillet welds in X-connections between circular hollow sections (CHS). Six full-scale, fillet-welded CHS-to-CHS X-connections were designed to be ... -
Laboratory-scale assessment of a capillary barrier using fibre optic distributed temperature sensing (FO-DTS)

Lateral Behaviour of Concrete-Filled FRP Tube Piles
(2017-10-01)Applications of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite piles are rapidly gaining traction in Canada and around the world. FRP piles offer several advantages compared to traditional piles, the most important of which is ... -
Lateral sand filters are effective for removal of antibiotic resistance genes from domestic wastewater
(Elsevier, 2019)The ability of lateral flow sand filters, used as on-site wastewater treatment systems (OWTS), to remove antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs), antibiotic resistant bacteria (ARB), and other relevant genetic markers (HF183, ...
