Sustainability-oriented multi-criteria analysis of different continuous flight auger piles
(2021-07)
Article
Open AccessWith increasing construction activity and concrete consumption globally, the economic, environmental, and social impacts of human activities continue to increase rapidly. Therefore, it is imperative to assess the choice ... -
Neural network-aided prediction of post-cracking tensile strength of fibre-reinforced concrete
(2021-11)
Article
Open AccessStructural fibres are an effective method to improve concrete post-cracking tensile strength (fctR). Currently, the characterization of this property is mainly performed experimentally. This is a source of uncertainties ... -
A textile waste fiber-reinforced cement composite: comparison between short random fiber and textile reinforcement
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-07)
Article
Open AccessCurrently, millions of tons of textile waste from the garment and textile industries are generated worldwide each year. As a promising option in terms of sustainability, textile waste fibers could be used as internal ... -
Sustainability-oriented model to decide on concrete pipeline reinforcement
(2021-03)
Article
Open AccessThe design of sustainable sewerage infrastructure is fundamental for achieving long-term sustainability goals. Piping systems are essential components in the water supply chain and in waste disposal systems worldwide. Among ... -
Planning low-error SHM strategy by constrained observability method
(2021-07)
Article
Open AccessStructural identification using dynamical parameters (such as the natural vibration frequencies and mode shapes) is an important issue, especially in bridges or high-rise buildings. However, incorrect decisions could happen ... -
Innovaciones y avances en el ámbito de los pavimentos urbanos para smart cities
(2017-09-01)
Article
Open AccessLos pavimentos pueden representar más de la mitad de la superfi cie del espacio público de las ciudades, por lo que su preservación y mantenimiento requieren de una gestión adecuada. Debido a que éstos tienen infl uencia ... -
Conversion of End-of-Life Household Materials into Building Insulating Low-Cost Solutions for the Development of Vulnerable Contexts: Review and Outlook towards a Circular and Sustainable Economy
(2021-04-15)
Article
Open AccessIn a world increasingly aware of the environmental cost of the current production/ consumption model, the use of sustainable practices to reduce our environmental impact as a society becomes imperative. One way to reduce ... -
Evaluación de sostenibilidad de diferentes materiales para elementos estructurales de cubiertas
(2020-12-17)
Article
Open AccessHoy en día, es creciente la importancia que debe darse a la consideración de aspectos de sostenibilidad en el desarrollo de proyectos de infraestructuras. Las distintas características de estos proyectos pueden influenciar ... -
Rehabilitación del firme de cuatro glorietas mediante un refuerzo delgado de hormigón (“thin Whitetopping”)
(2021-05)
Article
Open AccessEl presente artículo describe el proyecto y la construcción de la rehabilitación estructural del firme bituminoso de cuatro glorietas mediante la disposición de una capa de hormigón de 12 cm de hormigón vibrado con fibras ... -
Role of sensors in error propagation with the dynamic constrained observability method
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2021-05)
Article
Open AccessThe inverse problem of structural system identification is prone to ill-conditioning issues; thus, uniqueness and stability cannot be guaranteed. This issue tends to amplify the error propagation of both the epistemic and ... -
Characterization of concrete shrinkage induced strains in internally-restrained RC structures by distributed optical fiber sensing
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe present paper reports the result of an inter-university experimental investigation on concrete shrinkage induced strains on embedded rebars instrumented with Distributed Optical Fiber Sensors (DOFS). The monitoring was ... -
Numerical-aided flexural-based design of fibre reinforced concrete column-supported flat slabs
(Elsevier, 2021-04)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe growing use of fibre reinforced concrete (FRC) for structural purposes has led several guidelines to include design-oriented models that allow the partial (and even total) substitution of the steel reinforcing bars. ...
