The present paper investigates an innovative seismic-resilient bridge column-footing socket connection (SC) for post-tensioned concrete-filled steel tube (PCFT) columns defined according to the Accelerated Bridge Construction (ABC) requirements. PCFT-SC column uses embedded dissipate seismic energy and unbonded (PT) bars improve self-centering capacity. Experimental tests were performed on a co...

Alkali silica reaction (ASR) is a harmful distress mechanism which results in expansion and reduction of mechanical properties concrete. The latter may cause loss serviceability load carrying capacity affected concrete structures. Influences ASR on are known to be complex nature, for the traditional empirical curve-fitting approaches insufficient provide adequate models capture such complexity....

Abstract Gas condensate diesel fuels, being an excellent resource base, often do not meet modern standards of the cetane number value and content sulfur compounds (SC). Currently, Euro 5 6 (<10 ppm content) motor fuels are produced worldwide. High-quality using hydro desulfurization process. Analysis scientific publications has shown that adsorption is effective method desulphurization, whic...

Localized biogenic corrosion and extrication of annoying odors caused by hydrogen sulfide (H2S) have long been a big problem in the management urban sewer systems. H2S emission control sewers via chemically or biologically normal oxidation processes has also investigated extensively is costly. The objective this work was to develop new technology mitigate concentration pipes using conductive co...
