  GPR clutter amplitude processing to detect shallow geological targets 

  Salinas Nadal, Victor; Santos Assunçao, Sonia; Pérez Gracia, María de la Vega (2018-01-01)
  Article
  Accés obert

  The analysis of clutter in A-scans produced by energy randomly scattered in some specific geological structures, provides information about changes in the shallow sedimentary geology. The A-scans are composed by the coherent ...
• GPR building inspection: Examples of building structures assessed with Ground Penetrating Radar

  The GPR assessment of buildings depends on the structure or part of the building studied. In this paper, three different case study are presented, all of them about old buildings that need to be restored or modified. ...
• An experimental investigation of a new perfect bond technology for composite slabs 

  Ferrer Ballester, Miquel; Marimón Carvajal, Federico; Casafont Ribera, Miguel (2018-03-30)
  Article
  Accés restringit per política de l'editorial

  Steel-concrete composite slabs generally fail due to the debonding with separation of sections caused by longitudinal shear forces, regardless of the shape of the sheeting profile or the design of the embossments. This ...
