Abstract:

Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structure can be strengthened upon the addition of externally bonded high-strength light-weight fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. An abundance of research over the last two decades has established the effectiveness of the externally bonded FRP via extensive experimental testing. Perhaps the most commonly occurring failure mode though is premature debonding of the FRP and debonding generally occurs at strains well below the strain capacity of the FRP. Debonding failures are undesirable as they are typically brittle and represent an under-utilis

This thesis empirically examines the career orientations inventory (COI) as a measure of career anchors and then, using this measure, it goes on to investigate the relationship between career anchor congruence and work related outcomes, specifically job satisfaction and organisational commitment. The psychometric properties of the 40 item COI (presented by Igbaria and Baroudi, 1993) were explored by the administration of the measure to a sample of 658 individuals from 27 organisations in the UK.

Abstract:

During construction of dams, rock bolts are in general installed in the interface between concrete and rock as an extra safety measure against overturning failure. These bolts are however not allowed to be taken into consideration for the stability calculations of large dams. New standards and new design criterias have increased the requirements of the safety of the old dams, leading to a need for expensive rehabilitation and strengthening. It is possible that consideration of these bolts in stability calculations may lead to money being saved. In order to do so more information about the long

This study explores adolescent religious commitment using qualitative data from a religiously diverse (Jewish, Christian, and Muslim) sample of 80 adolescents from California and New England. It identifies a new construct, "anchors of religious commitment," to describe what adolescents are committing to as a part of their religious identity. Seven anchors of religious commitment are discussed: (a) religious traditions, rituals, and laws; (b) God; (c) faith traditions or denominations; (d) faith community members; (e) parents; (f) scriptures or sacred texts; and (g) religious leaders.

One of the objectives of this research is to develop a standardized method of testing that is clinically relevant, at least for veterinary use.

Abstract:

The gradual depletion of shallow water hydrocarbon deposits has forced the offshore oil and gas industry to develop reserves in deeper waters. Dynamically installed anchors have been proposed as a cost-effective anchoring solution for floating offshore structures in deep water environments. The rocket or torpedo shaped anchor is released from a designated drop height above the seafloor and allowed to penetrate the seabed via the kinetic energy gained during free-fall and the anchors self weight. Dynamic anchors can be deployed in any water depth and the relatively simple fabrication and insta

The thesis presents the main characteristics of the mechanical behaviour of adhesive anchors installed in concrete. They are the mechanisms of failure, the relationship between applied pull-out load and slip of the anchor and the stresses and strains in each of the three components (steel-resin-concrete). The study is primarily experimental but theoretical and finite element analyses are also included. These main characteristics are dependent on the adhesion and wetting phenomena across the resin-concrete and resin-steel interfaces, and on a series of parameters relating to geometry, propertie

Abstract:

The mining industry is a major consumer of rock bolts in the United States. Due to the high humidity in the underground mining environment, the rock bolts corrode and loose their load bearing capacity which in turn reduces the life expectancy of the ground support and, thus, creates operational difficulties and number of safety concerns [1]. Research on rock anchor corrosion has not been adequately extensive in the past and the effects of several factors in the mine atmosphere and waters are not clearly understood. One of the probable reasons for this lack of research may be attributed to the

Abstract:

Numerous studies presented in this thesis have reported failure of the rock mass surrounding an anchor, as a result of applied external tensile loads (i.e. pullout loads) transferred to rock mass from the anchor and the overlying structure. Resistance to this failure mechanism is provided in design by assuming that the dead weight of a uniformly shaped inverted “cone”, with an assumed initiation point and breakout angle, provides resistance to the design loads. In some cases, a minor contribution of rock mass tensile or shear strength is considered by designers across the area of the assumed

Abstract:

This study presents an upper bound plastic limit analysis for predicting drag anchor trajectory and load capacity. The shank and fluke of the anchor are idealized as simple plates. The failure mechanism involves the motion of the anchor about a center of rotation, the coordinates of which are systematically optimized to determine the minimum load at the shackle. For a given anchor orientation, the direction of the shackle force is varied to establish a relationship between the magnitude and direction of the shackle load. Coupling this relationship to the Neubecker-Randolph anchor line solution

Such failures are also generally sudden and give rise to brittle member behavour.

碩士<br>朝陽科技大學<br>營建工程系碩士班<br>90<br>ABSTRACT A sand model “SHSE” and a 3D numerical software “FLAC3D” have been performed to study the anchorage behavior of horizontal and vertical underreamed anchors in sand. It was found, the anchorage capacity of horizontal anchor increases with overburden depth ratio H/D, but the influence comes from free length ratio Z/D was not evident. Although the total load, shaft friction and end bearing do not reach peak values at same anchor displacement, the total load of deep anchor reaches it peak value at same displacement almost. The peak value of end bearing of

碩士<br>國立屏東科技大學<br>土木工程系所<br>100<br>This study investigates the behaviors of chemical adhesive anchors and mechanical anchors under tension and seismic forces. The experimental parameters mainly include the concrete strength 20.6 MPa. The experimental results show in a dry environment, we implanted the M12 chemical adhesive anchors into the concrete, the maximum tension average is 47.63 KN. In the tests on effects of damp environment, the maximum tension average is 41.584 KN, which is 86% of the dry state. Subject the anchors to the sinusoidal-tension loads with 0.1Hz. The experimental results

碩士<br>國立交通大學<br>土木工程學研究所<br>86<br>The expansion anchor has been used widely to affix the building envelope or annexed structure on concrete because they are easy to install. 　　This study is to test the pullout and shear capacity of the expansion anchor which is generally used in our country. The results were compared with design codes of ACI-349 and Japan Architecture Society. 　　The results show that when the expansion anchor fails due to pullout force, the failure model is concrete cone failure. The angle between the failure surface and horizontal surface is about 30-45 degree. The sleeve exp

Abstract:

Several content-based interfaces for music collection exploration rely on Self-Organizing Maps (SOMs) to produce 2D or 3D visualizations of music spaces. In these visualizations, perceptually similar songs are clustered together. The positions of clusters containing similar songs, however, cannot be determined in advance due to particularities of the traditional SOM algorithm. In this thesis, I propose a variation on the traditional algorithm named anchoredSOM. This variation avoids changes in the positions of the aforementioned clusters. Moreover, anchoredSOM allows users to personalize the m

The post-installed anchor is relatively easier than pre-installed anchor due to on-site construction requirement during installation. M12 chemical anchor, one a half inch mechanical expansion anchor bolt (drop-in anchor), and M12 mechanical screw-in Anchor (Concrete screws) were used in the study. ASTM E488-96, ASTM E1512-01, ICC AC58, ICC AC308 are the reference standards. A comparison tensile test was conducted in dry and wet conditions for the chemical anchor. Tensile test usi
