Modeling of human calvarium under static loading

There are many papers on head modeling in literature [1]. Generally, the topic of most of them is designing and modeling devices for head (especially brain) protection, e.g. helmets. On the other side, most papers are about modeling of whole part of top body (a torso and a head). The main aim of these researches is simulation of the backbone behavior under external load applied to the head. The...

Performance of Bridge Timber Ties under Static and Dynamic Loading

A dramatic increase in railway car axle loads has occurred over the past 50 years. This paper presents the results of an experimental program undertaken at the University of Manitoba to evaluate the structural performance and durability of treated timber bridge ties under different load levels. A portion of a prototype bridge deck, consisting of eight prototype timber ties, was tested under var...

Application of Artificial Neural Networks for Analysis of Flexible Pavements under Static Loading of Standard Axle

In this study, an artificial neural network was developed in order to analyze flexible pavement structure and determine its critical responses under the influence of standard axle loading. In doing so, more than 10000 four-layered flexible pavement sections composed of asphalt concrete layer, base layer, subbase layer, and subgrade soil were analyzed under the impact of standard axle loading. P...
