Kinky structures (2020)
Thesis
Currie, N. Kinky structures. (Thesis). University of Salford

Rotational springs are not widely used in structural engineering other than within undergraduate texts to aid with the understanding of strut buckling or other similar theoretical exercises. The inclusion of rotational springs can significantly alte... Read More about Kinky structures.

Shear strengthening of reinforced concrete beams using an external Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) composites of low elastic modulus (2007)
Thesis
(CFRP) composites of low elastic modulus. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Beam-column joints designed seismically are considered impractical due to the congestion of steel stirrups. Currently, CFRP is used for strengthening reinforced concrete structures that have reduced integrity due to corrosion of steel reinforcement...

Evaluation of finite element analysis techniques applied to a floating offshore wind turbine (2005)
Thesis
Almherigh, M. Evaluation of finite element analysis techniques applied to a floating offshore wind turbine. (Thesis). University of Salford

The work presented here is a research thesis of the Ph. D programme in The School of Computing, Science & Engineering at The University of Salford UK. The work presents the evaluation of using explicit finite element techniques for structural non-lin...

The seismic analysis of statically designed tall reinforced concrete buildings using the finite element method (2003)
Thesis
El-Khawanky, T. The seismic analysis of statically designed tall reinforced concrete buildings using the finite element method. (Thesis). University of Salford, UK

Earthquakes present one of the most devastating hazards on the planet. They threaten the safety of civilians in seismically active regions, and are of extreme concern in applications that demand a high level of safety, i. e. the nuclear industry. Ho...
