Abstract

The objective of this work is to develop an analytical model to overcome the shortfalls in current engineering practices that are being used to estimate the pipe rack steel quantities during the pre-bid engineering phase in Oil & Gas industries. The research methodology consists of performing data analysis of past projects and devising a new system by developing suitable structure formulation techniques, loading system creation, structural stability analysis and LRFD design calculations, along with steel quantification procedures, which are completed in a single run. Then this rational hybrid analytical model is applied to examine a real-time project pipe rack structure module. As research findings, the results of the analytical model are compared with the outcome of both the conventional methods as well as the bench mark detailed engineering calculations. It is found that the quantity obtained using the new method is extremely close to the detailed engineering quantity with the least time consuming. Hence, this novel analytical model has proved to be a boon to structural engineers working in Oil and Gas industries since the crux of pre-bid engineering is to process voluminous data and calculate the quantities more precisely within a shorter time frame to be a successful bidder.

Abstract

In natural rivers, vegetation grows on floodplains, generating complex velocity field within the compound channel. The efficient modelling of the flow hydraulics in a compound channel with vegetated floodplains is necessary to understand and determine the natural processes in rivers and streams. As the three dimensional (3D) flow features are difficult to capture through experimental investigation; therefore, the present numerical study was carried out to investigate the complex 3D flow structures with the vertically layered vegetation placed over the floodplains in a symmetric trapezoidal compound channel. The simulations were conducted using a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code FLUENT, whereas a Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) technique based on Reynolds stress model (RSM) was implemented for turbulence closure. The numerical model successfully replicated the flow behavior and showed a good agreement with the experimental data. The present study concluded the presence of quite-S shaped velocity profile in the layered vegetated floodplains when the short vegetation was submerged during high flows or floods, whereas the velocity profile was uniform or almost logarithmic during low floods or when both short and tall vegetation remained emergent. The lateral exchange of mass and momentum was promoted due to the flow separation and instability along the junction of the floodplains and main channel. The flow velocities were significantly reduced in the floodplains due to resistance offered by the vegetation, which consequently resulted in an increased percentage i.e. 67-73%, of passing discharge through the main channel. In general, the spatial distribution of mean flow and turbulence characteristics was considerably affected near the floodplain and main channel interfaces. Moreover, this study indicated a positive flow response for the sediment deposition as well as for the nourishment of the aquatic organisms in the riparian environment.

Abstract

Indeed, natural processes of discarding rubber waste have many disadvantages for the environment. As a result, multiple researchers suggested addressing this problem by recycling rubber as an aggregate in concrete mixtures. Previously, numerous studies have been undertaken experimentally to investigate the properties of rubberized concrete. Furthermore, investigations were carried out to develop estimating techniques to precisely specify the generated concrete's characteristics, making its use in real-life applications easier. However, there is still a gap in the conducted studies on the performance of the k-nearest neighbor algorithm. Hence, this research explores the accuracy of using the k-nearest neighbor's algorithm in predicting the compressive and tensile strength and the modulus of elasticity of rubberized concrete. It will be done by developing an optimized machine learning model using the aforementioned method and then benchmarking its results to the outcomes of multiple linear regression and artificial neural networks. The study's findings have shown that the k-nearest neighbor's algorithm provides significantly higher accuracy than other methods. This kind of study needs to be discussed in the literature so that people can better deal with rubber waste in concrete. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-04-06 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

Repairing and retrofitting old civil engineering structures based on reinforced concrete represents a challenge for civil engineering societies all over the world. Environmental impacts such as corrosion and natural disasters like earthquakes can considerably weaken those structures. Reinforced concrete confinement technique using carbon fiber-reinforced polymers (CFRP) is considered as an innovative solution to strengthen the old and damaged structures. In this paper, a numerical simulation was carried out to evaluate the impact of the CFRP jacket as a confining composite material on the compressive strength and the ultimate strain of confined reinforced concrete. A FE model was developed, validated by comparing its results with the available experimental measurements, and finally assessed by performing a parametric study. Indeed, the parametric investigations had as their purpose the evaluation of the level of confinement (different number of plies), namely without plies, one plie, and three plies configuration, that were subjected to different eccentric loading modes e=0, e=25 and e=50 mm, in order to assess the interaction between the combined load that can be represented by compressive and flexural effect. The numerical results were, in fact, in good agreement with the experimental data. In addition, CFRP wrapping had a significant effect on the maximum load of eccentrically loaded columns compared to concentrically loaded columns by increasing the compressive strength with a value of 15% gain compared to the unconfined column. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-04-011 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The elevated tanks are considered as very sensitive structures in seismic movement condition. Moreover, the conical steel tank manufacturing without local geometric imperfection seems to be too difficult. In generally, the latter is the most responsible factor to define the shell structures buckling capacity. For this reason, several theoretical and experimental researchers studied the performance of this type of structure under seismic loading.  The present study aims to demonstrate the local geometric imperfection effect on dynamic buckling of elevated water tank. Using the three dimensions finite element technique to study the seismic response of perfect and imperfect elevated water tank was established taking into account the following factors; the interaction fluid structure (FSI), the wall flexibility, the local geometric imperfection, the nonlinear time history analysis, the material and geometric nonlinearity, and this by the application of three different instability criteria for the critical PGA estimate. The critical PGA of the imperfect elevated water tank numerical models decreased by 45, 45% compared to the elevated water tank numerical model without local geometric imperfection. The obtained results confirm the local geometric imperfection effect on dynamic buckling of elevated water tanks.

Abstract

Double-layer spatial domes are one of the most common spatial structures, the stability and progressive collapse of which are of great importance in design, construction and maintenance of such special structures. In this paper considering three loading cases and two types of support conditions, the collapse behaviour of double layer Diamatic dome has been investigated utilizing non-linear static analysis and alternate path method usage. In order to modelling compressive member behaviour, effective buckling modes have been obtained by eigenvalue buckling analysis for all of the members. Behaviour of compressive members has been obtained via definition of initial imperfection and non-linear static analysis. Riks arc-length method has been utilized for non-linear static analysis. The numerical results have indicated that reducing the number of the supports and focusing  of load in a local area of the dome extremely impact on its vulnerability to failure, as in similar loading condition, decreasing the number of the supports reduces the capacity of damage resistance in spatial domes up to 50 percent. Investigating some models has shown that removing the critical members of the top layer has little effect on load-bearing capacity of the dome and it causes a slight failure in the structure. In this condition, structural redundancy can be considered equal to static indeterminacy. Load bearing capacity of the structure decreased up to 39 percent when compressive members of the web and bottom layers were removed. In this condition, the structure failure is considered moderate.

Abstract

This paper is presented the lateral dynamic response of pile groups embedded in dry sand under influence of vertical loads and the pile shape in-group, which are subjected to the lateral two-way cyclic loads. The laboratory typical tests with pile groups (2×1) have an aluminum-pipe (i.e. circular, square) pile, embedded length to diameter of pile ratio (L/D=40) and spacing to diameter ratio (S/D) of 3, 5, 7 and 9 are used with different cyclic-load ratio (CLR) 0.4, 0.6 and 0.8. The experimental results are revealed that both the vertical and lateral pile capacity and displacement is significantly affected by the cyclic-loading factors i.e. (number of cycles, cyclic load ratio, and shape of pile) .In this study, important design references are presented. Which are explained that the response of the pile groups under cyclic lateral loading are clear affected by the attendance of vertical load and pile shape. Where, it is reduction the lateral displacement of group piles head and increase lateral capacity about (50) % compared without vertical loads. On the other side, the pile shape is a well affected to the pile response where the level of decline in lateral displacement at the pile groups head in the square pile is more than circular pile about 20 % at the same load intensity.

Abstract

The coefficient of variation (CV) is a useful statistical tool for measuring the relative variability between multiple populations, while the ratio of CVs can be used to compare the dispersion. In statistics, the Bayesian approach is fundamentally different from the classical approach. For the Bayesian approach, the parameter is a quantity whose variation is described by a probability distribution. The probability distribution is called the prior distribution, which is based on the experimenter’s belief. The prior distribution is updated with sample information. This updating is done with the use of Bayes’ rule. For the classical approach, the parameter is quantity and an unknown value, but the parameter is fixed. Moreover, the parameter is based on the observed values in the sample. Herein, we develop a Bayesian approach to construct the confidence interval for the ratio of CVs of two normal distributions. Moreover, the efficacy of the Bayesian approach is compared with two existing classical approaches: the generalised confidence interval (GCI) and the method of variance estimates recovery (MOVER) approaches. A Monte Carlo simulation was used to compute the coverage probability (CP) and average length (AL) of three confidence intervals. The results of a simulation study indicate that the Bayesian approach performed better in terms of the CP and AL. Finally, the Bayesian and two classical approaches were applied to analyse real data to illustrate their efficacy. In this study, the application of these approaches for use in classical civil engineering topics is targeted. Two real data, which are used in the present study, are the compressive strength data for the investigated mixes at 7 and 28 days, as well as the PM2.5 air quality data of two stations in Chiang Mai province, Thailand. The Bayesian confidence intervals are better than the other confidence intervals for the ratio of CVs of normal distributions. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-SP2021-07-010 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

This paper aims to study the behavior of one-way concrete solid slabs reinforced with welded wire mesh to investigate the efficiency of using welded wire mesh in the construction of structural slabs as a replacement for ordinary steel bars. This research included experimental and analytical programs. Nine 700×1050 mm one-way simple specimens and six 525×1050 mm continuous one-way slabs with two equal spans were tested under point, line, and uniform static loads. The experimental program studied the use of welded mesh and the number of layers utilized. Numerical analysis was conducted using finite element modeling developed using the ABAQUS 6.13 software package. Experimental and analytical results showed good correlation: the number of layers of welded metal mesh and load type significantly affected the peak vertical load capacity of simple and continuous slabs, with slabs showing higher values with welded mesh than those of ordinary reinforcing bars. In addition, using welded metal mesh to reinforce solid slabs enhanced their cracking behavior as well as their ductility. Doi: 10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-04-03 Full Text: PDF

Abstract

The high cost of energy consumption in buildings highlights the importance of research focused on improving the energy efficiency of building’s envelope systems. It is important to characterize the real behavior of these systems to know the effectiveness in terms of energy reduction. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to characterize the thermal performance of facades based on experimental monitoring of outdoor test cells in tropical climate. To carry out this research, a case study was presented to compare two construction systems. One of them is a light façade (M1) and the other a reference façade (M2). A thermal simulation was performed for the opaque and glazed facades. In addition, several parameters were measured with different types of sensors, as well as environmental variables to evaluate the thermal and lighting behavior of multiple facades systems under real conditions. The findings show that light façade behavior was the opposite of what was expected, since by incorporating a window in the façade it has allowed solar radiation to increase the interior temperature in both modules. In the case of the light facade the penalization was higher than the reference facade, which has a lower thermal transmittance than M1. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091773 Full Text: PDF
