Hardy, Alec W. "Pier Portal." DigitalCommons@CalPoly, 2020. https://digitalcommons.calpoly.edu/theses/2281.
Full textAbstract:
The Pier Portal marine monitoring system is an internet controlled underwater camera that will enable students, researchers, and the general public the ability to monitor underwater marine life and ocean conditions. Installed at Cal Poly’s Center for Coastal Marine Science pier at Avila Beach, California, the camera can be commanded in real-time to raise or lower to any position between the top of the pier and the bottom of the ocean floor, while providing a live-stream video to the operator and general public. This thesis effort focused on the integration of the various subsystem components through software, and the development of an online interface to allow the remote control of the system and the ability to view the live-stream video from the camera. Missing or damaged mechanical and electrical components were successfully redesigned and replaced, and a more compact and serviceable winch and sheave system was designed and partially manufactured. A software set was written in Python, JavaScript, HTML, and IEC 61131-6 successfully connecting the system’s control server, the winch’s industrial PLC, the cameras inside the underwater pod, and the front-facing webserver. The system’s internal network has been designed to allow internal components to communicate, and to allow external users the ability to securely control the system and view the video feed. Due to campus closure in early 2020, the final system was unable to be installed and tested, however, this document contains the entire system design and the next steps required to fully implement the system.

This project introduces the typology of the Pleasure Pier to Stockholm. The Pier starts at Ropsten, an area in the center of the municipality´s extensive plans for The Royal Seaport (or Norra Djurgårdsstaden). The project is a study of the pier typology, how to translate an old idea to give it relevance to Stockholm today, how a structure can be integrated in the intense traffic node that Ropsten will become, and how Stockholm´s abundance of water can become more accessible without diminishing its value.

Full textAbstract:
Riprap is the most commonly employed countermeasure where bridge piers need to be protected against possible undermining by scour. An extensive review of available design techniques revealed a wide range of equations and proposed design procedures but no generally accepted method for riprap sizing and implementation. The aim of this study was to develop a design procedure for riprap protection at piers which can be used in most river environments. The failure mechanisms and stability of riprap layers around cylindrical and rectangular shaped piers were examined in a comprehensive experimental study. The study assessed the importance of various riprap, flow, sediment, and pier parameters. Parameters for investigation were determined by dimensional analysis and included riprap placement and arrangement. A riprap size prediction formula was developed based on an allowable maximum local scour depth of up to 20%. This equation has been incorporated in a design approach which was tested through a model study of the Hutt Estuary Bridge. The influence of various parameters on riprap stability are incorporated in the equation by way of adjustment factors. The adjustment factors, KY and KD, represent the effects of riprap placement and pier/sediment size ratio effects respectively. They were deemed the most important parameters in riprap layer performance and are therefore included in the riprap size prediction formula. Additional experiments using synthetic filters have shown their ability to eliminate local scour, however they are susceptible to failure under degrading bed conditions. Degrading bed conditions cause the riprap to subside as a layer with the downward movement of the surrounding bed. Subsidence allows the layer to withstand rapid short term degradation. However long term degradation will ultimately result in failure of the stone protection. A preliminary experimental study of the use of submerged vanes as a scour countermeasure was performed. Submerged vanes have been used previously in channel protection with much success. Results indicate that vanes with a length to height ratio greater than one can reduce the maximum local scour depth in live bed conditions by as much as 34%. Further testing is required to develop a complete design procedure.

Barry, Clare. "From pier to modernity : architectural histories of the seaside pier, 1861-1914." Thesis, Middlesex University, 2015. http://eprints.mdx.ac.uk/19029/.
Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to establish the British seaside pier as a unique space of nineteenth century modernity. There is no doubt that the pier shared much in common with other new building types that were emerging in the second half of the nineteenth century, but its materiality, liminal location, spatial logic and mixed use made it a uniquely ambivalent and radical architecture. This thesis examines how our understanding of the pier has been informed by its chequered historiographic representation and suggests that through a return to the archive and an analysis informed by critical theory, we can begin to understand the cultural significance of the pier. As a result this reassessment contributes new knowledge and challenges established interpretations of the space. Whilst such a vast project is clearly beyond the scope of any single enquiry, this thesis represents an initial attempt to open the way to a new understanding of an important marginalized building and prompt us to question exclusions of difference from the architectural canon.

The Cal Poly Pier (Pier) Master/Facility Plan (FP) document provides the vision of the future for the Pier, a marine science research facility. The Plan facilitates project development and management of the Pier while meeting university and department research goals. Specifically, the FP document establishes goals and strategies to direct long-term development of the Pier, streamlines agency approval and permit requirements, provides context for pier management, and assists the permitting process for future development as it relates to regulatory permits and programmatic growth on the Cal Poly Pier to help meet goals of the Center for Coastal Marine Sciences (CCMS). The Cal Poly Pier is the marine field station for the California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo (Cal Poly) CCMS and is one of several facilities that supports research and educational activities. The CCMS is a CSU Campus Center research organization that provides research and education activities as a part of Cal Poly’s overall mission while offering opportunities to interested parties beyond Cal Poly, such as private and public entities. The 3,057-foot long pier provides students, faculty, researchers, and other users unrivaled access to the marine environment of the Central Coast and fosters hands-on learning opportunities to progress marine research and science. The Master Plan name was changed to Facility Plan to streamline the plan approval process and to minimize the potential for errors.

Full textAbstract:
The shear capacity of reinforced concrete pier caps in existing bridge support systems can be a factor which limits the capacity of an existing bridge. In their usual configuration, pier caps behave as deep beams and have the ability to carry load through tied arch action after the formation of diagonal cracks. Externally bonded fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) reinforcement has been shown to increase the shear capacity of reinforced concrete members which carry load through beam action. However, there is an insufficient amount of research to make it a viable strengthening system for beams which carry load through arch action, such as pier caps. Accordingly, this research was aimed at investigating the behavior of reinforced concrete pier caps through a coordinated experimental and analytical program and to recommend an external strengthening method for pier caps with perceived deficiencies in shear strength.
The experimental study was performed on laboratory specimens based on an existing bridge in Georgia. A number of factors were examined, including size, percentage longitudinal reinforcement and crack control reinforcement. The results showed that increasing the longitudinal tension reinforcement increased the beam capacity by changing the shape of the tied arch. In contrast, the presence of crack control reinforcement did not change the point at which diagonal cracking occurred, but it did increase the ultimate capacity by reinforcing the concrete against splitting. The results of the experimental study were used in conjunction with a larger database to examine different analytical methods for estimating the ultimate capacity of deep beams, and a new method was developed for the design of external strengthening. Two specimens were tested with externally bonded FRP reinforcement applied longitudinally to increase the strength of the tension tie. The test results correlated well with the proposed method of analysis and showed that increasing the strength of the longitudinal tension tie is an effective way to increase the strength of a reinforced concrete deep beam.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is a contribution to the existing knowledge of the nature of the scour hole around bridge piers. The analysis is based on the fictitious, long contraction concept developed by Dr. Emmett M. Laursen. This concept and its equation has been used herein to determine the size of rip-rap particles which will reduce the local scour at bridge piers. Evaluation of the parameters involved in it is required for sizing the rocks in a prototype. Values such as approach velocity, water depth, average diameter of the rip-rap particles in the scour, and geometry of the pier are among the values to be known. Both a graphic and an analytical procedure are proposed as a means to find the size of particles to be used as protection. The discussion and conclusions derived from this investigation will be of great help to civil engineers working in the field of river engineering.

Resumo: Dentre as diversas atividades literárias e cinematográficas às quais Pier Paolo Pasolini se dedicou ao longo de sua carreira, seu trabalho jornalístico ganhou grande destaque entre o público em geral e a crítica especializada por ter um caráter de intervenção política. A intenção do presente trabalho é buscar caminhos para compreender o percurso intelectual percorrido pelo escritor italiano nos meios de comunicação de massa, iniciando a pesquisa por artigos publicados na década de 1960 em periódicos de menor circulação e culminando em uma análise mais longa e reflexiva sobre o momento que ficou conhecido como o do corsarismo. Tal denominação foi extraída do livro Scritti corsari, de 1975, o qual reúne uma série de textos escritos para grandes jornais italianos, como o Corriere della Sera, a fim de denunciar a dominação de um modo de vida burguês em detrimento de outras manifestações sociais e culturais na Itália após o fim da Segunda Guerra Mundial e seus consequentes avanços econômicos. Nosso objetivo é então pensar o que foi esse momento corsário na obra de Pasolini e de que maneira suas escolhas estilísticas constituíram uma forma muito particular de escrever ensaios jornalísticos
Abstract: Among all different literary and cinematographic activities developed by Pier Paolo Pasolini, his work in newspapers gained great importance with the general public and the critics because of the political intervention it represented. The purpose of this thesis is to search for means to comprehend the intellectual journey made by the Italian writer when he has written for big mass medias. The first step was related to writing reviews about his articles published during the 1960s in smaller journals and then a deeper and reflexive analysis of corsarismo was made. Corsarismo is a designation extracted from the book Scritti corsari (1975), which gathers many texts published in big newspapers, such as Corriere della Sera. These articles were written to denounce the domination of a certain bourgeois way of life to the detriment of other social and cultural manifestations in Italy after Second World War and its consequent economical improvements. Our main goal is to think of what has been this corsair moment in Pasolini¿s work and in which way his stylistic choices became part of a very particular way of writing essays

Esta dissertação apresenta uma pesquisa sobre aspectos de teoria lingüística e cinematográfica na obra do intelectual italiano Pier Paolo Pasolini, especificamente a partir de seus textos teóricos de caráter ensaístico coligidos no livro Empirismo Hereje. A dissertação apresenta ainda, a análise de alguns poemas e filmes do autor. A pesquisa procura inicialmente investigar como Pasolini entende um sistema de representação semiótica e discute a noção de realidade na sua obra. Em um momento seguinte, procura-se analisar os fundamentos e implicações dos conceitos de realidade, representação e estilo na formação do cinema de poesia. A análise está baseada especialmente na articulação dos conceitos de teoria da linguagem desenvolvida nos ensaios estudados. _________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
This dissertation presents a research on linguistic and cinematic theories in the work of the Italian intellectual Pier Paolo Pasolini, specially in the theoretical texts compiled in the volume Heretical Empiricism. The dissertation still embraces analysis of some Pasolini´s poems and films. Initially, the research investigates how Pasolini conceives a semiotic representation system and dialogues with the notion of reality in his work. In the next moment, the research focus on the background information and implications associated with the concepts of reality, representation and style, in order to accomplish poetry cinema. The analysis is embodied with language theory concepts developed into the Heretical Empiricism texts.

Full textAbstract:
Accurately predicting the response of complex bridge structures to strong earthquake ground motion requires the use of sophisticated nonlinear dynamic analysis computer programs not generally available to the bridge design engineer. The analytical tools that have been developed are generally applicable to bridges whose substructures can be idealized as beam-columns. Bridges with wall piers do not belong to this category
The major objective of this study is to develop an analysis tool capable of simulating the effects of earthquakes on monolithic concrete wall pier bridges. Thus, after surveying the literature, a mathematical model is developed for the geometrically nonlinear earthquake analysis of wall pier bridges. Mixed plate elements are used to model the wall pier. The plate element has eight nodes and the degrees of freedom per node are three displacements and three moments. Beam elements are used to model the bridge deck. The beam element accounts for shear deformation and it has two nodes with three displacements and three rotations as degrees of freedom per node. A transitional element is used to join the beam elements to the plate elements. The equation of dynamic equilibrium is solved using the Newmark method with modified Newton-Raphson type iteration at each time step.
The mixed plate element is used to model two plate structures and the results are compared with analytical and other finite element solutions. A two span wall pier bridge is modeled using the structural elements developed in this study. The digitized time history for the N-S component of the El Centro Earthquake of May 18, 1940, is used to seismically excite the bridge model.Ph. D.

Solomita, Pasqualino <1974>. "Pier Luigi Nervi architetture voltate Verso nuove strutture." Doctoral thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2012. http://amsdottorato.unibo.it/4690/.
Full textAbstract:
L’ingegner Pier Luigi Nervi (1891-1979), progettista, costruttore e teorico del “Costruire Correttamente”, ha intrapreso un proprio esclusivo percorso professionale che ha decretato negli anni una notevole fortuna critica fino a un sostanziale oblio dopo la sua morte.
La presente ricerca di dottorato intende approfondire le tematiche legate a una significativa tipologia strutturale che ha contrassegnato il percorso professionale di Pier Luigi Nervi: le architetture voltate.
Cupole, volte e coperture geodetiche rappresentano il sistema ottimale con il quale Nervi ha perseguito una personale ricerca mirata alla definizione di grandi luci di copertura a spessore ridotto.
Questi sistemi di copertura rappresentano per Nervi la miglior espressione architettonica in quanto perfetta sintesi tra funzioni statiche e esigenze economiche.
Le parole chiave per definire l’ambito di studio possono essere cosi riepilogate: sperimentazione/variazione sul tema/primato della grande luce/nuove strutture.
La tesi intende indagare i tentativi di rinnovamento che, a partire dagli anni sessanta, spingono Pier Luigi Nervi a sperimentare l’applicazione di nuovi materiali come l’alluminio in sostituzione totale o parziale di un sistema costruttivo, quello del ferrocemento, che ha contraddistinto la maggior parte delle sue opere decretandone il successo.
La testimonianza di questa intransigenza, legata all’etica del costruire secondo i principi di naturalezza e razionalità, costantemente riaffermata da Nervi nelle sue diverse pubblicazioni, è sorprendentemente disattesa nella ricerca sulle nuove strutture.
Queste strutture, sperimentate senza successo in considerazione della loro mancata concreta attuazione, rivelano un complesso di singolarità capace di porre in discussione quell’intransigenza a cui Nervi ha fedelmente dichiarato di attenersi.
La lettura critica del progetto di concorso per il Kuwait Sports Centre, elaborato nel 1968, contiene la sintesi di tutte le parole chiave della ricerca.
Scopo della presente tesi è documentare circostanze, innovazioni e anomalie che hanno accompagnato Pier Luigi Nervi nella definizione di nuove strutture voltate.Pier Luigi Nervi (1891-1979), designer, building contractor and theorist of the “Costruire Correttamente” (Properly Building) took up a unique career path which led him to a notable critical success over the years up to a substantive oblivion after his death. This doctorate research aims at studying thoroughly all the issues related to a remarkable structural typology which characterized Pier Luigi Nervi’s professional career: vaulted architectural structures. Domes, vaults and geodetic roofing are considered by Nervi as an optimal system through which he carried out his personal research focused on the definition of large spans with reduced thickness. These roofing systems are the best architectural expression for Nervi as perfect synthesis between static functions and economic needs. The keywords to define the field of study can be summed up thus: Experimentation/variation on the theme/primacy of large spans/new structures. The thesis is intended to analyse the renewal attempts which, from the 1960s, led Nervi to test the application of new materials such as the aluminium to completely or partially replace a building system and the ferro-cement which marked most of his works determining his success. Surprisingly, the testimony of this intransigence - mainly related to the ethics of building according to the principles of naturalness and rationality and constantly reaffirmed by Nervi in his several publications - is not considered in the research on new structures. Although these structures were tested without success because never completed, they revealed elements of uniqueness which are able to challenge the intransigence Nervi declared to faithfully adhere to. The critical study of the design competition for the Kuwait Sports Centre, developed in 1968, holds the synthesis of all the research keywords. In conclusion, the purpose of this thesis is to examine circumstances, innovations and anomalies which led Nervi to the definition of new vaulted architectural structures.

L'idee forte de ce travail est de vouloir faire ressortir le "comment faire" pasolinien a donner la parole a des personnes qui en sont exclus. Dans l'action de communiquer quelque chose se joue, et c'est de cette chose la que nous allons evoquer. Cette chose qui est en fait la creation, la creation langagiere. La notion de realite est donc necessaire pour comprendre cet entre-deux du langage. Le monde economique n'a pas de tradition ou les detruits des qu'elles ne lui servent plus. Le cinema de pasolini nous montre un monde economique qui veut se liberer des anciennes valeurs, tant au niveau primaire, c'est a dire des parlants, que de celui des techniques artistiques. D'ou l'interet porte par pasolini aux dialectes qui sont une forme vivace d'expressivite et de creation linguistique et surtout de reconnaissance de la subjectivite. Seulement la perte de l'expressivite dans la vie quotidienne ne peut qu'impliquer sa disparition aux niveaux des techniques. L'artiste cherchera a tourner en derision le monde economique et surtout le monde des arts, qui a sa propre tradition dont il ne peut se liberer. Ii a ses codes. Pasolini sera celui qui va donc s'attacher a renverser ces codes quilui ont ete donnes pendant son apprentissage et il le fait au nom des valeurs artistiques et donc de la tradition. Pasolini nous apprendra que pour le cinema la realite devient de plus en plus inexpressive, et dans la mesure ou le cinema exprime la realite a travers la realite, il tend lui-meme a etre de moins en moins expressif donc comme un miroir passif des enormites de la vie. La realite chezpasolini est liee a la mutation du monde, elle est la monstration d'un passage, ou mieux d'une periode de ce passage : un entre-deux en quelque sorte. Entre un monde fini et un monde a construire. Mais cet entre-deux est fait de difference et meme souvent d'instabilites. Pasolini nous montre un monde sans expressivite car lie a la tradition, lie au gardien de la loi, a la figure du pere.

Full textAbstract:
YesPier scour has been extensively studied in laboratory experiments. However, scour depth relationships based on data at the laboratory scale often yield unacceptable results when extended to field conditions. In this study, non-uniform gravel bed laboratory and field datasets with gravel of median size ranging from 2.7 to 14.25 mm were considered to predict the maximum equilibrium scour depth at cylindrical piers. Specifically, a total of 217 datasets were collected: 132 from literature sources and 85 in this study using new experiments at the laboratory scale, which constitute a novel contribution provided by this paper. From the analysis of data, it was observed that Melville and Coleman’s equation performs well in the case of laboratory datasets, while it tends to overestimate field measurements. Guo’s and Kim et al.’s relationships showed good agreements only for laboratory datasets with finer non-uniform sediments: deviations in predicting the maximum scour depth with non-uniform gravel beds were found to be significantly greater than those for non-uniform sand and fine gravel beds. Consequently, new K-factors for the Melville and Coleman’s equation were proposed in this study for non-uniform gravel-bed streams using a curve-fitting method. The results revealed good agreements between observations and predictions, where this might be an attractive advancement in overcoming scale effects. Moreover, a sensitivity analysis was performed to identify the most sensitive K-factors.

Full textAbstract:
Hem considerat la traducció de l'Orestea d'Èsquil feta per P.P. Pasolini analitzant el passatge des del text d'origen (el grec, juntament, però, amb la traducció francesa que Pasolini feia servir - P. Mazon, Les belles lettres) fins al d'arribada per tal d'evindenciar els trets peculiars de la interpretació pasoliniana de la trilogia. Per tal de focalitzar la consideració del mite d’Orestes, també hem tingut en compte obres posteriors com ara el “Pilade” o el documental “Appunti per un’Orestiade africana”.
La història dels Àtrides és vista des de la perspectiva del seu desenvolupament polític, entès com a síntesi. Pasolini, a la seva pròpia introducció, declara obertament aquesta lectura de la trilogia. Mitjançant l’anàlisi vers per vers ens permet esbrinar com, concretament i amb quines eines lingüístiques, aquesta interpretació pren forma, partint del text d’Èsquil i passant pel de Mazon i, alhora, de quina manera aquest procés de síntesi està estrictament lligat a la condició existencial de l'home: la transició, política, de la barbàrie ancestral fins a la democràcia atenesa és paral•lela al passatge des de l'inconsciència fins a la consciència, des de l’obsessió fins a la pau i a la concòrdia.
Des d’un punt de vista més estilístic, hem subratllat el procediment traductiu de Pasolini: mitjançant una traducció "per analogia", Pasolini recupera la força expressiva del grec i, per mitjà d’"arrossegaments" del sentit (forçant ara el lèxic, ara l'estil), sobreposa el seu prisma interpretatiu al text d'Èsquil. Així, hom pot reconèixer per una banda el lèxic propi de Pasolini, funcional en la seva intenció poètica; per una altra la seva personal visió dels personatges, que desenvolupats sota la seva perspectiva prenen matisos peculiars (Agamèmnon irònicament menyspreat i Clitemestra tan apassionada com tràgicament gran, per exemple); o bé, encara, hom pot constatar i valorar com tracta el tema de la guerra o el de l'amor.Finalment, cal destacar que molt sovint Pasolini "corregeix" el francès de Mazon en què s'inspira, donant mostra d'una sensibilitat pel grec que sovint ha estat deixada de banda als comentaris d’aquesta traducció.
La traducció destaca, doncs, tot i estar marcada per una visió política gens defensable (la progressió “marxista” de Thomson), per ser una de les interpretacions de l’Orestea més pregones i modernes, capaç de transmetre a l’home modern les inquietuds que Èsquil posà en escena.I have examined P. P. Pasolini's translation of Aeschylus's Orestea by analysing the transition from the original Greek text - along with the French translation used by Pasolini (P. Mazon: Les Belles Lettres) to the final text in order to show the particular features of Pasolini's interpretation of the trilogy. I have also taken into account some of his later works such as Pilade and the documentary Appunti per un 'Orestiade Africana in order to bring into focus the myth of Orestes. The story of the Atrides is considered in the light of its political development understood as a synthesis. This reading of the trilogy is openly stated by Pasolini himself in his introduction. By a line by line analysis of the text one can discern how and with which language tools he constructed his interpretation starting from Aeschylus's text and through his use of Mazon's translation. I have also indicated how Pasolini's synthesis is closely related to man's existential condition the entirely political transition from the old barbarism to Athenian democracy parallels the transition from unconsciousness to consciousness , from obsession to peace and harmony. From the linguistic point of view I have underlined Pasolini's process of translation. Translating " by analogy", he regains the expressive power of the original Greek and superimposes his own perspective on Aeschylus's text by "shifting" meanings (forcing either the words or the style). Thus one can note on one hand Pasolini's original vocabulary which functions in its poetical intent and on the other hand his unique and very personal grasp of the characters which under his interpretation acquire a distinctive indivisuality ( Agamemnon ironically despised and Clytemnestra as passionate as she is tragically heroic). Nevertheless one can state and assess how war and love are treated. Finally, Pasolini often "corrects" Mazon's French by which he is inspired, displaying a sensibility for the Greek that has often been neglected in commentaries on this translation. Despite the bias of an untenable point of view (Thomson's "Marxist" progression) this translation of the Orestea stands out as one of the most penetrating and most contemporary attempts to convey the matters that Aeschylus put on the stage to a modern reader.

Full textAbstract:
It is an important task that design engineers in practice predict the local scour around bridge piers as accurately as possible because excessive local scour around bridge piers unbalance and demolish the bridges. Many equations have been proposed previously by various researchers, based on their experimental findings, but no general method has been developed so far due to the complexity of the topic. In the present study two new bridge pier groups were employed to investigate the inclination effect of the most upstream and downstream piers on the local scours around all piers. Total of 72 experiments have been conducted with 3 inclination angles, one of which representing the vertical case, each experiment lasting 6 hours, under uniform flow and clear-water conditions for a range of water depths and flow velocities on the uniform bed material. It is clearly observed and measured that the amount of local scour reduces substantially by the effect of inclination in the group piers, especially the reduction in the scour around the most upstream pier is found notable. Based on the experimental data, regression analyses are made and an empirical scour depth equation is developed for each individual pier in the pier groups studied. Comparisons with the similar studies performed by other researchers have been made and the results discussed.

Full textAbstract:
Experiments were completed in order to examine the effects of combined constriction and pier scour. Scour is cited as being a leading cause of bridge failure. It was found that in cases where both constriction and pier scour are present, the sum is greater than the linear addition of each individual case. This is contrary to the current industry assumption which states that the total depth of scour is the linear sum of the constriction and pier scour depth.
Velocimetry and scour data were collected enabling comparisons to be made in order to determine how the flowfield influences the equilibrium scour conditions. In addition, experiments were performed examining the effect that the pier shape has on the scour depth and distribution.
Since the results are contrary to the assumption used in industry, they are especially important and may help reduce future bridge failures.

Full textAbstract:
Roman inachevé et posthume, "Petrolio" constitue l'aboutissement et la radicalisation des constantes structurelles, thématiques et poétiques à l'oeuvre chez Pier Paolo Pasolini. Le pivot de ce "poème du retour" ? Un mouvement contradictoire irrésolu entre le rêve de l'Un et la nécessité conjointe de la séparation. Qu'il s'agisse du terrain politique où certaine "tentation" fasciste est mise au service d'une authentique utopie révolutionnaire, du terrain littéraire où le recours à des formes poussées participe d'un geste créatif proprement avant-gardiste (le retour aux conventions romanesques valant comme prétexte à la représentation de leur implosion), qu'il s'agisse enfin du terrain antologique où la pulsion régressive est affrontée à son envers - soit au principe paternel -, le "roman" n'en finit pas d'interroger la dialectique du maître et de l'esclave, osée comme "l'impossibilité" même : malgré la mise en scène récurrente de son objectivation par la métaphore sexuelle, le sujet - le bourgeois, l'écrivain - est condamné à la domination.

Full textAbstract:
This study uses a 3D finite element program, calibrated with the results of a full scale instrumented load test on a limited size footing, to estimate the settlement improvement factor for footings resting on rammed aggregate pier groups. A simplified 3D finite element model (Composite Soil Model) was developed, which takes into account the increase of stiffness around the piers during the ramming process.
Design charts for settlement improvement factors of square footings of different sizes (B = 2.4m to 4.8m) resting on aggregate pier groups of different area ratios (AR = 0.087 to 0.349), pier moduli (Ecolumn = 36MPa to 72MPa), and with various compressible clay layer strengths (cu = 20kPa to 60kPa) and thicknesses (L = 5m to 15m) were prepared using this calibrated 3D finite element model.
It was found that, the settlement improvement factor increases as the area ratio, pier modulus and footing pressure increase. On the other hand, the settlement improvement factor is observed to decrease as the undrained shear strength and thickness of compressible clay and footing size increase.
After using the model to study the behaviour of floating piers, it was concluded that, the advantage of using end bearing piers instead of floating piers for reducing settlements increases as the area ratio of piers increases, the elasticity modulus value of the piers increases, the thickness of the compressible clay layer decreases and the undrained shear strength of the compressible clay decreases.

Wang, Jun. "The SRICOS-EFA method for complex pier and contraction scour." Diss., Texas A&M University, 2004. http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/392.
Full textAbstract:
A method called SRICOS-EFA is presented in this dissertation for scour prediction. The method is based on the calculation of two basic parameters: the maximum depth of scour and the initial rate of scour. The maximum depth of scour is based on an equation obtained from flume tests and the initial rate is based on an equation giving the initial shear stress obtained from numerical simulations. The initial scour rate is then read on the Erosion Function Apparatus (EFA) erosion function curve at the corresponding value of the calculated shear stress. A hyperbola is used to connect the initial scour rate to the maximum scour depth and describes the complete scour depth vs. time curve. The erodibility function curve can be measured in the EFA. As the results show, the SRICOS-EFA method can handle the multi-flood hydrograph and multilayer soil system. It can be used to solve the complex pier and contraction scour alone; it can also handle the superposition of complex pier scour and contraction scour. A simplified SRICOS-EFA method was developed based on the case histories for contraction scour. EFA tests were performed to investigate the influence of different pH values and different levels of salinity on the soil erodibility. An attempt was made to find the correlation between the critical shear stress, and the initial slope of the erodibility function on the one hand and some geotechnical parameters on the other. A solution for future hydrograph prediction was developed in this dissertation. The prediction consists of using a past hydrograph, preparing the frequency distribution plot for the daily stream flows, sampling the distribution randomly and preparing a future hydrograph, which has the same mean and standard deviation as the measured hydrograph. A frequency distribution plot of scour depths can be used to quote a scour depth with a corresponding probability of occurrence and risk level based on future hydrographs. In the verification process, 10 bridge case histories and 3 scour databases were used to check whether the method is good enough to provide sound results in real cases.
