On Load-Sharing in the Lumbosacral Spine during Neutral Standing and Forward Flexion Postures: A Combined Finite Element and Musculoskeletal Study
DownloadSpring 2019
Understanding load-sharing in the spine during in-vivo conditions is critical for better spinal implant design and testing. Previous studies of load-sharing that considered detailed spinal geometry applied compressive Follower Load (FL), with or without moment, to simulate muscle forces. Other...

Computational Modeling and Multi-Fidelity Uncertainty Analysis for Masonry Walls Under In-Plane and/or Out-of-Plane Loading: Development and Applications
DownloadSpring 2024
structural behaviors, including the failure modes and load-resisting capacity under IP and/or OOP loading, poses a considerable challenge considering the composite nature of masonry walls and the intricate interactions among their components, particularly when pertinent uncertainty in material properties is

Improved Seismic Design Recommendations for Wide-Flange Columns in Ductile Steel Moment-Resisting Frames considering Three-dimensional Response
DownloadSpring 2022
Deep wide-flange columns are commonly used in the construction of steel moment-resisting frames (MRFs) to resist lateral seismic loads in high seismic regions in North America. Past studies on deep columns with base plastic hinges located at the first storey of MRFs have indicated that such...

Predictive Method for Pipeline Strain Demand Subject to Permanent Ground Displacements with Internal Pressure & Temperature
DownloadFall 2022
Pipelines subject to ground deformations generated by geohazard loads carry high importance on pipeline analysis, design, and assessment due to risk of structural damage or failure. Additionally, internal pressure and temperature variation within an operating pipe induce additional strains in

Spring 2018
The subtalar joint forms part of the triple joint complex in the foot and is primarily responsible for inversion and eversion of the hind foot and ankle. Injury to the subtalar joint typically arises as a result of primary osteoarthritis or sequelae of injury. When non-invasive treatments are no...

Multi-Objective Optimization for Reinforcement Detailing Design and Work Planning on a Reinforced Concrete Slab Case
DownloadFall 2018
Reinforced steel rebar is fabricated in the form of one-dimensional stocks, designed according to structural engineering code, and installed in various structural components. Cutting one-dimensional stocks to fit to project-specific requirements results in cutting losses, which is the major
contributor in the generation of construction waste. Previous research efforts developed mathematical models aimed to analytically minimize cutting losses in preliminary engineering designs, but few have offered insight on the integration of engineering design, workface plan, detailed estimating, plus

Compressive strength of rectangular columns made with ECC and confined with rectangular stirrups
DownloadSpring 2018
crack width has the potential to reduce the wide cracks and fracture problems associated with critical loads and large imposed deformations in structural members made with conventional concrete. Previous studies have demonstrated that the unique characteristics of ECC offer high damage tolerance

Spring 2013
Sit-to-stand (STS) transfer is a prerequisite for many daily tasks. Literature often assumes symmetrical behavior across the body (bilateral symmetry) during healthy STS. However; little research has been conducted to validate this assumption. Motion analysis was utilized to evaluate STS in 10...
