Development and Applications of Mechanics- and Data-based Capacity Models for Intact/Corroded Prestressed Concrete Bridge Girders
DownloadFall 2022
Prestressed concrete (PC) highway bridges represent an integral part of the transportation network and contribute significantly to socio-economic development. However, highway bridges are susceptible to Deterioration and thus exhibit structural deficiency after years of service, especially in the...

Effect of Purge Gas Flow Rate and Oxygen Impurity on Heel build-up and Prediction of Heel build-up Using Machine Learning
DownloadFall 2021
Heel buildup, i.e., the accumulation of non-desorbed/non-desorbable adsorbates and their by-products on an adsorbent, during cyclic adsorption/regeneration of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) onto activated carbon decreases its adsorption capacity and lifetime. In this this study, the effect of...

Effect of Surface Oxygen Groups on Irreversible Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds on Beaded Activated Carbon
DownloadSpring 2017
Adsorption by activated carbons is a widely used method for controlling emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, accumulation of adsorbates and/or regeneration by-products (heel buildup) during cyclic process is a common challenge in this process. Irreversible adsorption restricts...
