Blast Analysis of a Bridge with AASHTO Type VI Girders Using CSI Bridge
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
Protection of bridges from blast load due to terrorist attacks or accidental explosions
is necessary. For this we require to study the performance of a bridge when blast loads are
applied above the deck slab. The ...
Finite element analysis and experimental comparison of doubly reinforced concrete slabs subjected to blast loads
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2012)
In the design of concrete structures, it has become important to understand the
response of concrete as a structural material when subjected to large stresses and strain rates
through explosive loadings. In order to do ...
Strain Estimation of Fibronectin Fibrils Using Two Dimensional Digital Image Correlation
(2014)
Bone consists of a highly specialized mineralized extracellular matrix (ECM)
which supports cells and tissues. Fibronectin is a non-collagenous protein produced by
bone cells and is one of the earliest ECM proteins to ...
Strain Response in Osteocyte Lacuna Due to Mechanical Loading - a Parametric Finite Element Study Using FEBio
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2016)
Osteocytes are the major type of living cells in bone and are known to be responsible for the biomechanosensory functions within the bone matrix. Osteocytes are activated by mechanical forces and regulates both osteoclasts ...
Deformation mapping of fibronectin fibrils using digital image correlation
(University of Missouri Kansas City, 2012-01-09)
Bone cells produce large amounts of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins that form a
fibrillar scaffold on which bone mineral is deposited. Prior work has shown that fibronectin
fibrils are one of the earliest ECM proteins ...
Experimental Behavior of High Strength Concrete Slabs Subjected to Shock Loading
(2015)
The design to resist blast loading is required in many private and governmental
buildings. The research presented in this thesis characterizes the response of high strength
concrete panels, reinforced with high strength ...
Automatic GUI Based Counting Software for Immunostaining Analysis Using Matlab GUIDE
(2016)
Typically, researchers need to the manually count the number of cells in many
histological sections. However, this manual counting method is labor intensive and time
consuming. Manual counting is also subject to bias, ...
Modified Virtual Internal Bond Model for Concrete Subjected To Dynamic Loading
(2014)
Concrete is often used as a primary material to build protective structures. There is a wide range of research work being performed to simulate the behavior of reinforced concrete under impact and blast loading. This ...
Optimization of Bridge Approach Slab
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2010)
Every US state Department of Transportation has its own practice for design and construction of Bridge Approach Slab (BAS). The objective of this thesis is to explore the usage of alternate innovative structural solution ...
