Abstract:

In XX century, Pavement Management System has became obligatory to be used by road agencies. Need of serviceable road system demands the proper maintenance and rehabilitation plans and at that point, Pavement Performance Models step in. They are used to predict the future condition of pavement structure, basing mostly on road, climate and traffic data.The following thesis describes the attempts to implement modern Pavement Performance Models in Norway. With their help, it would be possible to predict pavements deterioration in better way and therefore, perform better plan maintenance and

Abstract:

In this day and age of women's liberation, we constantly hear about the victimization of women and their efforts to free themselves from the domination of men. We all, men and women, seem to take for granted that man is by nature an aggressive individual, the oppressor, that violence is an inborn trait in him, an instinct, or a force released to ease frustrations. The Freudian theories have of course largely contributed to implant those ideas in our minds. Those theories however are now being challenged more and more by the social learning theorists and justly so, as it appears. Indeed, whe

Abstract:

The research presented considers the design, development and building of a structure-based condition monitoring system. A series of physical experiments were designed and conducted in a wind tunnel. This was able to initially prove the feasibility of the proposed system. Using a simulation of the continuous turbine rotation the self-initiated Phase-Angle curve was defined. The algorithms so produced were validated and tested using both the simulated waveforms and experimental data sets. This demonstrated that the proposed monitoring system was able to deal with the ever-changing flow condition

In recent years, a surprising new phenomenon has emerged in which globally-distributed online communities collaborate to create useful and sophisticated computer software.

Abstract:

In the aftermath of the financial crisis where global aggregate demand is struggling, countries occasionally get accused of weakening their currency to gain competitiveness. The method of weakening the currency to gain competitiveness is explained by the Marshall-Lerner condition, which states that a devaluation in the long-term will strengthen the balance of trade. But is this policy always rational? And if not, which economies should avoid it? This study investigates whether the structure of the export industry can explain the varying response in the balance of trade from a devaluation. The

Abstract:

In species that form social foraging groups during all or part of their lifecycle, individuals are subject to costs in terms of a higher frequency of aggressive interactions and having to share resources with group members, which must be outweighed by the benefits of flocking for all individuals concerned if it is to remain an Evolutionary Stable Strategy. In many group living species, dominance hierarchies exist that reduce the need for repeated agonistic interactions between the same individuals, which use valuable energy and may result in injury. Dominance hierarchies allow the most dominan

Sensory pollution from artificial night-lighting and anthropogenic noise have increased at a dramatic rate over the last several decades. Alterations to the sensory environment have been found to affect wildlife in a wide variety of ways including behavioral changes, physiological responses, changes in species interactions, and altered community structure. Increased levels of light and noise pollution can originate from many sources including roads, energy development and infrastructure, and urbanization. Even remote or protected areas are not immune to the effects of increased sensory disturb

Abstract:

Expansive soils have damage light structures due to movement of soil which was a common problem all around the world. Soils exhibiting expansive properties were common throughout Australia. The damage to light structures founded on expansive soils in Victoria occurred mainly in properties built on quaternary basaltic clays and Tertiary to Ordovician clays. A review of existing literature in the area of expansive soils showed a lack of a thorough scientific diagnostic of the damage to light structures founded on expansive soils. Very few studies had been performed on damage to light structures

Model based techniques for automated condition monitoring of HVAC systems have been under development for some years. Results from the application of these methods to systems installed in real buildings have highlighted robustness and sensitivity issues. The generation of false alarms has been identified as a principal factor affecting the potential usefulness of condition monitoring in HVAC applications. The robustness issue is a direct result of the uncertain measurements and the lack of experimental control that axe characteristic of HVAC systems. This thesis investigates the uncertainties

The interaction of the soil with the structure has been largely explored the assumption of material and geometrical linearity of the soil. Nevertheless, for moderate or strong seismic events, the maximum shear strain can easily reach the elastic limit of the soil behavior.

Consequently, ignoring the nonlinear characteristics of the dynamic soil-structure interaction (DSSI) this phenomenon could lead toerroneous predictions of s

Le paysage des rivières en tresses est constitué d’une riche mosaïque d’habitats diversifiés, déterminée par un ensemble de facteurs biophysiques qui interagissent à différentes échelles spatiales et temporelles.A partir d’une sélection de 53 tronçons en tresses, nous avons réalisé une analyse comparative à l’échelle régionale du bassin du Rhône et en fonction de plusieurs échelles temporelles, en mobilisant les techniques de télédétection.Premièrement, nous avons étudié la variabilité de la structure des habitats aquatiques et du patron des chenaux. Nous montrons que le patron de tressage et

Abstract:

Le but de cette étude est d'établir des relations entre les caractéristiques moléculaires du polyfluorure de vinylidène, son comportement viscoélastique linéaire et son aptitude à l'étirage en phase fondue. Les paramètres moléculaires moyens ont été déterminés et comparés aux résultats les plus récents concernant ce sujet. L'incapacité des modèles de Cole-Cole et de Carreau-Yasuda à décrire le comportement viscoélastique observé nous a incité à utiliser la notion de spectre de distribution des temps de relaxation. Deux méthodes de détermination de ce spectre ont ainsi été choisies et comparées

Le but de cette thèse a été de présenter la condition juridique et la protection sociale des travailleurs de l'offshore. Ainsi, dans une première partie, il a été examiné les protagonistes de la relation contractuelle à savoir l'employeur aux visages multiples et le salarié au statut ambivalent : certains personnels ont le statut de marin, d'autres sont des travailleurs terrestres, le plongeur connaît également un statut particulier. Ce statut particulier s'explique par le lieu de travail original de ces personnels : les structures offshore dont les variétés sont les plus diverses. Il a égalem

Abstract:

Aujourd'hui, les systèmes industriels deviennent de plus en plus complexes. Cette complexité est due d’une part à la structure du système qui ne se résume pas à des structures classiques en fiabilité, d’autre part à la prise en compte de composants présentant des phénomènes de dégradation graduelle que des systèmes de monitoring permettent de surveiller. Ceci mène à l'objectif de cette thèse portant sur le développement des stratégies de maintenance prévisionnelle pour des systèmes multi-composants complexes. Les politiques envisagées proposent notamment des stratégies de regroupement de compo

Abstract:

Approximation theory is a fundamental tool in order to study the representation theory of a ring R. Roughly speaking, it consists in determining suitable additive or abelian subcategories of the whole module category Mod-R with nice enough functorial properties. For example, torsion theory is a well suited incarnation of approximation theory. Of course, such an idea has been generalised to the additive setting itself, so that both Mod-R and other interesting categories related with R may be linked functorially. By the seminal work of Beilinson, Bernstein and Deligne (1982), the derived categor

Abstract:

In this thesis a brief history of dynamic pile analysis methods and the associated background theory are presented. In addition an unpublished rigorous mathematic proof of the Case method and new general theoretical model for dynamic pile analysis, developed as the Aberdeen method, are given. The dynamic and static response of model concrete piles in dry sand to impact and static loads have also been investigated experimentally and the results are reported in this thesis. Pile response has been found to be crucially dependent on the damping in the system. The method of modal analysis has been
