Experimental & numerical simulation of soil boundary conditions under dynamic effects (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Qaftan, O., Weekes, L., Toma-Sabbagh, T., & Augusthus Nelson, L. (2018, June). Experimental & numerical simulation of soil boundary conditions under dynamic effects. Presented at 16th European Conference on Earthquake Engineering (16ECEE), Thessaloniki, Greece

When conducting earthquake simulation tests, one of the main concerns is the modelling of boundary effects created by artificial boundaries of a soil model container. The function of this soil container is to hold the soil in place during the excitat... Read More about Experimental & numerical simulation of soil boundary conditions under dynamic effects.

Knowledge retention in construction in the UAE (2010)
Presentation / Conference
Arif, M., Egbu, C., & Toma, T. (2010, September). Knowledge retention in construction in the UAE. Presented at 26th Annual ARCOM Conference, Leeds, UK,

With employees leaving construction organizations for all sorts of reasons, it is imperative that organizations look at ways to retain their knowledge. This paper presents a four step process in order to ensure knowledge retention. The four steps inc... Read More about Knowledge retention in construction in the UAE.

Effect of moisture content and scale on fine-grained soil compressibility
Presentation / Conference
Rosine, T., & Toma-Sabbagh, T. Effect of moisture content and scale on fine-grained soil compressibility. Presented at Fourth Geo-China International Conference, Shandong, China

The majority of engineering problems is based on the analysis of soil properties determined from compression tests, from which the soil behaviour is mainly affected by the change in the initial moisture content, void ratio, scale and overburden stres...
