Abstract:
Traditionally in Germany environmental engineering education took place within the context of a civil engineering programme. There were reasons for this: the beginning of much of what we understand today to be environmental works fell within the parameters of city engineering. There were and are advantages mostly in view of the necessary planning, construction and operation of environmental infrastructure. There are also disadvantages which become more and more pronounced as the field of environmental protection expands: the civil engineer frequently lacks basic training in disciplines such as

AbstractIs Sanhuri's Egyptian civil code Islamic? I examine here the distributive aspects of this identity question and argue that the code's Islamicity rests on a genealogical study of its drafter's "will to Islamise." From his doctoral theses onwards, Sanhuri's intellectual genealogy is one of discursive and existential division between two different projects, namely, the identity project of modernising Islamic law and the redistributive project of engineering modern law to promote social justice. In the Egyptian civil code, Sanhuri meant to bring together those two projects under a single n

It has been a traditional practice of fluvial engineers to apply the uniform water-flow hypothesis to real rivers by averaging the geometric and hydraulic quantities over appropriate portions of the river reach.

Similarly, a critical bending moment of the tapered column subjected to a pure bending could be determined by using a correction factor αm. A large number of simulations carrie

With the increased deterioration of infrastructure in this country, it has become important to find ways to maintain the strength and integrity of a structure over its design life. Being able to control the amount a structure displaces or vibrates during a seismic event, as well as being able to model this nonlinear behavior, provides a new challenge for structural engineers. This research proposes a wavelet-based adaptive neuro- fuzzy inference system for use in system identification and structural control of civil engineering structures.

Abstract:
This documents describes several studies undertaken to assess the applicability of MultiLevel Monte Carlo (MLMC) methods to problems of interest; namely in turbulent fluid flow over civil engineering structures. Several numerical experiments are presented wherein the convergence of quantities of interest with mesh parameters are studied at different Reynolds’ numbers and geometries. It was found that MLMC methods could be used successfully for low Reynolds’ number flows when combined with appropriate Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) strategies. However, the hypotheses for optimal MLMC performanc

Abstract:
Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a fiber optic sensing system that is used for vibration monitoring. At a minimum, DAS is composed of a fiber optic cable and an optic analyzer called an interrogator. The oil and gas industry has used DAS for over a decade to monitor infrastructure such as pipelines for leaks, and in recent years changes in DAS performance over time have been observed for DAS arrays that are buried in the ground. This dissertation investigates the effect that soil type, soil temperature, soil moisture, time in-situ, and vehicle loading have on DAS performance for fiber opt
