The uptake of electric vehicles (EV) is increasing every year and will eventually replace the traditional transport system in near future. This imminent increase urging stakeholders to plan up-gradation power infrastructure. However, for efficient planning support an additional load, accurate assessment vehicle load quality indices required. Although several EV models estimate charging profile ...

An aerospace structure is built from the assembly of structural sub-components involving joining technologies such as welding, mechanical fastening or adhesive bonding. The function joints to ensure load transfer between sub-components. integrity directly depends on strength these joints. In order design critical areas, must be assessed. objective this review paper present approaches for simpli...

With the increasing complexity of engineering geological conditions, problem tensile-shear failure bolts is becoming more serious. Accurate modelling performance bolted rough joints subjected to load essential for support design. In this paper, based on theoretical criteria bolt failure, mechanical model Pile element in FLAC3D program modified, and accuracy modified verified by numerical experi...

Load data of a Federal Medical Center (FMC) in Nigeria, under prevailing erratic power supply from Nigeria’s electric distribution company (DisCo) feeders, were considered to develop model load curve and electricity use values for planning effective management. The analytical methods applied include nominal evaluation the entire FMC, acquisition by direct hourly monitoring 12 months, diesel fue...

Lap splices are part of virtually every structure made reinforced concrete. As loads need to be transferred safely along these discontinuities, numerous studies focused on their strength. However, even though they traditionally placed also in highly loaded regions elements, which potentially undergoing plastic deformations, little attention has been paid load-deformation behaviour and deformati...

The acute:chronic workload ratio (ACWR) is a metric that can be used to monitor training loads during sport. Over the last decade researchers have investigated how this relates injury, yet little consideration has been given interacts with performance. Two prospective longitudinal studies were implemented investigating internal and external ACWRs match outcome in junior tennis players. Forty-tw...
