Mass Transit Study, Jacksonville Community Council, Inc.
Jacksonville Community Council, Inc.
A study to determine if mass transit is a current need in Jacksonville. Includes current user needs, ridership patterns, fare structures, potential sources of financial support, transportation modes used elsewhere and existing city transportation policies. Identifies major problems and recommends development of a varied mass transit system. PALMM
Failure Surface For L-Shaped Reinforced Concrete Short Columns, Mon-Chen Liu
Failure Surface For L-Shaped Reinforced Concrete Short Columns, Mon-Chen Liu
Theses
Combined bending and axial compression for L-shaped reinforced concrete short columns is a common problem. But the present ACI Building Code (ACI 318-77), handbooks and texbooks pay no attention to this problem. A numerical analysis and computer program developed by Hsu fora reinforced concrete member subject to biaxial bending and axial load has been used Using this computer program, the interaction diagrams and failure surface were developed for L-shaped members under combined bending and axial compression. A comparison between theoretical and experimental results was included to examine the validity of failure surface.
Behavior Of Channel-Shaped Reinforced Concrete Columns Under Combined Biaxial Bending And Compression, Dureseti Chidambarrao
Behavior Of Channel-Shaped Reinforced Concrete Columns Under Combined Biaxial Bending And Compression, Dureseti Chidambarrao
Theses
The inelastic behavior of irregular shaped reinforced concrete columns has been a constant concern for a structural engineer, to design a safe and economic structure in modern buildings and bridge piers. The shape of the elements in a reinforced concrete structure may be used to optimize its structural strength, to make better use of the available space, to improve the aesthetic appearance of the structure, or to facilitate construction. Due to the locations of the columns, the shapes of the buildings and the nature of the applied loads, many columns are subject to combined biaxial bending and axial load.

Analysis And Tests [Of] L-Shaped Reinforced Concrete Column Under Combined Biaxial Bending And Axial Compression, Alaedin Majlesi
Analysis And Tests [Of] L-Shaped Reinforced Concrete Column Under Combined Biaxial Bending And Axial Compression, Alaedin Majlesi
Theses
A total of five tests on biaxially loaded column specimens were conducted to investigate the complete behavior of load-deformation characteristics from zero load until failure. The specimens were tested under horizontal position with 60 ton hydrolic jack. Pin end was used for both ends to obtain higher accuracy of plotting curves.
Two specimens were tested with dial gages to obtain load-deflection curves and the other three specimens were tested with demec and strain gages to obtain load strain and moment-curvature curves. The strain gages were measured by weston bridge and deme-gages were measured by mechanical dial gage.
The above moment-curvature …
Evaluating The Design And Operation Of Irrigation Canals In Egypt, Amany El Kayal
Evaluating The Design And Operation Of Irrigation Canals In Egypt, Amany El Kayal
All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023
A computer simulation model for temperature data was developed in order to generate synthetic daily temperature. The model consists of two components: a deterministic component represented by a Fourier series fit, and a stochastic component represented by an autoregressive model. The simulation model was proven to be able to preserve the main statistics of the historical series.
The data generated by the above temperature model were used as an input to an irrigation water requirements simulation model. This model incorporates the probabilistic nature of these requirements. The irrigation system of Abo Raya area in Egypt was used to demonstrate the …

Secondary Stresses In Bowstring Timber Trusses, John F. Bradford
Secondary Stresses In Bowstring Timber Trusses, John F. Bradford
Dissertations and Theses
This study was undertaken in order to determine analytically the magnitude of the secondary (i.e., joint deflection induced) moments in the continuous glued-laminated chords of bowstring timber trusses. Traditionally, these moments have been assumed to be small and therefore neglected. The American Institute of Timber Construction makes no mention of these moments in their recommended design procedure.
A Study Of Single Angle Compression Members, James Robert Callaway
A Study Of Single Angle Compression Members, James Robert Callaway
Dissertations and Theses
A study was undertaken to investigate the compressive capacity of a specific group of single angle members.
A review of existing literature and techniques was presented. Laboratory compression tests were performed on 22 angle members of four different sizes and two different lengths. Additional tests were performed to determine the yield strength of the material. The results, normalized with respect to the yield stress, were tabulated and discussed.
Two existing analytic models were used to attempt to predict the ultimate capacity of the test members. The first, an elastic method, was based upon the AISC combined stress equation. The second, …
Mechanical Properties Of High Strength Sheet Steels, M. Brad Parks
Mechanical Properties Of High Strength Sheet Steels, M. Brad Parks
Masters Theses
"In recent years fuel economy has become one of the major criteria for the design of automobiles. In order to improve the efficiency of their vehicles many automotive designers are substituting high strength sheet steels for traditional materials of lower strength. This thesis discusses experimental work which was done to determine the representative mechanical properties and stress-strain relationships of a select group of high strength sheet steels with nominal yield strengths ranging from 80 to 140 ksi. The results show that high strength sheet steels are quite anisotropic with the variation in measured properties depending on the type of sheet …

Stability Analysis Of Closed Surge Tanks By Phase-Plane Method, Mostafa A. Sabbah
Stability Analysis Of Closed Surge Tanks By Phase-Plane Method, Mostafa A. Sabbah
Civil & Environmental Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The governing equations describing water level oscillations in a closed surge tank with compressed air at the top of the tank are a set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations if the hydraulic system is analyzed as a lumped system. These oscillations are stable or unstable depending on the parameters of the plant and the type and magnitude of the disturbance.
The present available stability criterion has been developed by linearizing the governing equations and is, therefore, valid only for small disturbances.
In the research reported herein, the governing equations are normalized to reduce the number of parameters from nine to …
