An experimental study of concrete resistivity and the effects of electrode configuration and current frequency on measurement (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Oleiwi, H., Wang, Y., Xiang, N., Augusthus Nelson, L., Chen, X., & Shabalin, I. (2018, July). An experimental study of concrete resistivity and the effects of electrode configuration and current frequency on measurement. Presented at Sixth International Conference on Durability of Concrete Structures, University of Leeds, UK

Electrical resistivity, a measurable parameter of the state of concrete, plays an important role in the assessment of reinforced concrete structures. An experimental study using two-electrode method has been conducted to evaluate the resistivity of P...

Use of finite element analysis to investigate the structural behaviour of masonry arch bridges subject to foundation settlement (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Naggasa, A., Augusthus Nelson, L., & Haynes, B. (2018, July). Use of finite element analysis to investigate the structural behaviour of masonry arch bridges subject to foundation settlement. Presented at 10th International Masonry Conference, Milan, Italy

This paper investigates the effect of foundation settling on masonry arch bridge structural behaviour using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). Masonry arch bridges form a large proportion of existing European infrastructure such as rail and road bridges...

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.
