10 Nov 2003: Expansive cement anchorage system was used to grip the tendons. Using this anchorage system, a tensile test was carried out to determine the efficiency of the system and thus set a

10 Nov 2003: The theoretical predictions are validated against the results of laboratory tests on reinforced concrete slab models, with limited lateral restraint stiffnesses, subjected to uniform or simulated uniform transverse loading.

17 Nov 1998: shells. The work begins with the simpler case of the cylindrical shell and encompasses tests on a range of simplified models that have been proposed in the literature, but which have

10 Nov 2003: Predictions of the tensile strengths of parallel-lay ropes were obtained by putting this yarn data into the model and the results compared with rope tests.

13 Jul 2005: To ensure the most efficient use of limited economic resources, it is important that such actions are only undertaken on those bridges which actually need intervention.

10 Nov 2003: Using the Kevlar 49-on-aluminium abrasion tests performed here, a general formula has been devised for lifetime, in terms of contact pressure, amplitude of slip and thickness to be abraded.

16 Mar 2005: Where available, model test solutions have also been used as benchmark.

10 Nov 2003: Deployment tests are carried out on a 2.3 m cable-driven retractable Rigid-Panel Solar Array.

30 Nov 2007: ACI Structural Journal, 89(1), 13-19. 1992 A design-build-test project on bridge erection. ... 1992 A design-build-test project on bridge erection. In 'Education for Structural Engineering', ed.

9 Jan 2004: The SIM method seems promising as it shows repeatability when a number of tests are carried out.

23 Sep 1998: Tests on a 3.48 m diameter models have demonstrated the feasilibility of these concepts.

9 Aug 2004: There could be significant economic consequences if these structures cannot be strengthened as the only other options are weight restrictions or complete replacement.

10 Nov 2003: routine against test results.

5 May 2005: This increase has been based on the flexibility and better economic performance offered by venues featuring retractable roofs compared to those with traditional fixed roofs.

25 May 2001: Every space structure must undergo an extensive ground validation test program to ensure in-orbit reliability and performance in space. ... In order to obtain reliable predictions for the behaviour of a structure in space, it is therefore necessary to

6 Aug 2008: There is also a Structural Design Course, in which you will design, build and test to destruction a framed structure, and an Exposition class, which is aimed at making engineers better

10 Mar 2005: A set of reference results for evaluation of the IR-welded samples is created from tensile tests of parent material single-ply and oven moulded single, five and six layer samples.

10 Nov 2003: number of expensive physical model tests that are currently required.

31 Jul 2008: the predictions obtained with experimental test data.

2 Feb 2005: An analysis of the deployment of the array was done using ProMechanica and compared to video footage taken of deployment tests.
