In this article, the research team proposes a costeffective IoT-based approach, integrating data like SCADA, to enhance management and monitoring convenience. The research outcome aims to design an electrical cabinet that includes various mechanisms to detect, and safeguard loads from potential incidents, while also being capable of collecting operational data, recording incident occurrences, and integrating with the central management system at the construction site.

The aim of this study was to investigate the photocatalytic activity improving of TiO2, Ag-TiO2 as photocatalysts which immobilized on perlite granules to degrade MB from synthetic wastewater under solar light irradiation. The photocatalytic mechanisms induced by solar light responsive Ag-TiO2/perlite composite was also proposed to demonstrate the photodegradation of MB cationic dye.

This paper presents a procedure to design cellular composite beams according to EN 1994-1-1. In addition, a parametric study is carried out to evaluate the influence of circular opening geometry to ultimate load and failure mode of a series of cellular composite beams. As a result, an optimal dimension of cellular beam is proposed.

In civil engineering, distinct mechanical properties and behaviors of structural steel rods necessitate a novel approach to material modeling. This study extends the application of recently proposed strain-hardening laws, originally developed for automotive sheet metals, to several structural steel rods (CB240-T and CB300-T). Standard uniaxial tensile tests are conducted for each examined material to obtain experimental stress strain data.

This paper presents a theoretical study that describes the fiber bridging mechanism under tensile stress using a closed-form analytical function. This proposed analytical model allows estimating the stress at a crack opening where the fiber orientation is represented by a Gaussian-like periodic distribution function.

In this study, we propose to build an equivalent 2D model to replace the 3D model of corrugated composite sheets, by the method of homogenization, to study the nonlinear mechanical behavior of corrugated core composite sheets. This model helps to significantly reduce the calculation time as well as the model building time. The model homogeneity is confirmed by comparing the numerical simulation results of the 2D model and the 3D model.

natural fiber for the construction of hybrid bio-composites. In the current research project, a thorough analysis of the use of soy-PF resin for the creation of composites reinforced with jute was conducted. A novel and practical cutlery material was created after the mechanical properties were evaluated and optimized. In order to study the value addition of these newly proposed biocomposite materials as an ecological alternative in terms of natural resources versus synthetic resources, variables such as hardness, cytotoxicity, and degrading qualities of composites were also explored.

This thesis explores the intersection between cartography and strategic thinking utilising a Strategy-As-Practice lens. Maps have long been used to (re)present our world and they form an epistemology of knowing. Mapping practices, whilst widely adopted, are still contested spaces. Although we know what maps are, we know less about how they work. This research identifies eleven elements of maps and proposes that they can be arranged in an epistemic technology as a mechanism for managers to explore their strategic thinking.

Once the mechanical properties of printed TPU are characterised, a novel, low cost, and environmentally friendly method for concrete casting using printed TPU moulds is proposed in this thesis. Additively manufactured TPU mould is developed to cast complex concrete structures. A planar topologically optimized cantilever and a free-form 3D column are cast using the proposed TPU mould. Good surface quality is obtained for the cast concrete elements, and the moulds can be reused many times after cleaning.

Morphing wings were once in the common in early aviation however due to a lack of strong and lightweight materials they were abandoned in favour of conventional wings. Due to the recent advances in smart technologies, morphing wings has become of interest in aviation. This paper proposes the use of internal mechanisms to promote morphing in a wing to increase aerodynamic performance as opposed to the smart technologies. To determine the aerodynamic superiority of the morphing wing it was compared to a conventional wing of the same geometry.

A major objective of the research presented here is to develop a link between the two approaches by establishing the relationship between the bridge component condition and the capacity and serviceability limits of the structure. A comprehensive review of literature identified methods of predictive modelling of bridge component condition change using different approaches. The review also indicated that a key to the proposed linkage is considering specific degradation mechanisms in predicting bridge deterioration.

A Mw 6.8 earthquake struck Western Turkey and Eastern Greece that occurred on October 30, 2020 in Kuşadası Gulf. The earthquake epicentre is located north of Samos Island and the focal mechanism solution shows that a normal fault was reactivated. The main shock and aftershock analysis imply that the large earthquake occurred on a north dipping normal fault which might be the western continuation of the Efes Fault in Western Turkey.

A geological interpretation of the faulting mechanism is also proposed. The existence of a new unknown source in an intermontane area is problematic. The role of inherited alpine structures seems more important today than in the past. The strike of the two new seismogenic sources, responsible for the two strongest events of the 2021 earthquake succession, differs from the previously known active faults. This forces us to reconsider older views on the direction of development of active faults and the orientation of the stress field.
