Using statistical methods to determine the load-bearing capacity of rectangular CFST columns

Study on Axial Compressive Behaviors and Bearing Capacity Formulas of the Composite CFST Columns

Effects of Radial Imperfection on the Load Capacity of Round HSS Columns

Geometric imperfections such as radial imperfection, diamond shape, and local dimples could affect the buckling mode and load carrying capacity of axially compressed steel tubular columns. This paper experimentally investigates the effect of radial imperfection on the load carrying capacity of tubular columns. Test samples include 100 specimens with different values for diameter, length, thickn...

Comparision of Methods for Determining Bearing Capacity of Piles Using Standard Penetration Test (SPT) Data

In recent years, determining bearing capacity of piles from in-situ testing data as a complement to static and dynamic analysis has been used by geotechnical engineers. In this paper, different approaches for estimating bearing capacity of piles from SPT data are studied and compared. A new method based on N value from SPT is presented. Data averaging, &#10failure zone and plunging failure of p...

Validation of back-calculation methods using otoliths to determine the length of anchovy kilka (Clupeonella engrauliformis)

Age structure of the Caspian Sea anchovy kilka, Clupeonella engrauliformis, was estimated for the first time by back-calculation methods. Otolith growth and the rate of increment in anchovy kilka were examined to determine whether otoliths could be used to back calculate body sizes at various life stages. Sampling was carried out on commercial fishing vessels board along the Iranian coast in 20...
