Unit skin friction from the extended dynamic cone penetrometer (EDCP) test supplemented by measurement of torque within testing wells
(Shiraz University, 2012-01-01)The Extended Dynamic Cone Penetration (EDCP) test supplemented by measurement of torque (EDCP-T) may be used to obtain a direct measurement of unit skin friction (fs) between the cone section and the surrounding soil. The ...

The effect of rotational imperfection on the buckling and post-buckling behaviour of steel frames
(Shiraz University, 2012-01-01)In this paper the behaviour of steel frames is investigated under an applicable range of initial rotational geometric imperfection in joints, which are mostly created during the manufacturing process. A nonlinear analysis ...

Introduction of a new empirical reservoir shape function to define sediment distribution pattern in dam reservoirs
(Shiraz University, 2012-01-01)Sedimentation is a very complex process of entrainment, transport and deposition of soil particles in the reservoir basin. Silting of reservoirs is influenced by many parameters, amongst which the reservoir shape is one ...

Ductility of high strength concrete in bending with or without confinement
(Shiraz University, 2012-01-01)One of the important principals of RC structural design in earthquake regions is ductility considerations, which need a different design approach. In this paper, the parameters affecting high strength concrete HSC are ...

Fracture of connections between steel and reinforced concrete shear walls under the cyclic loading
(Shiraz University, 2012-01-01)In steel structures, the effects of horizontal load like earthquake, are more displaced because of the elastic properties of the materials, compared with reinforced concrete structures. Therefore, in steel frame structures, ...

Ordering for bandwidth and profile minimization problems via charged system search algorithm
(Shiraz University, 2012-01-01)In this paper the recently developed meta-heuristic optimization method, known as charged system search (CSS), is utilized for optimum nodal ordering to minimize bandwidth and profile of sparse matrices. The CSS is an ...
