Validation of analytical models for the design of basal reinforced piled embankments
Abstract Van Eekelen et al. (2012a,b, 2013) have introduced an analytical model for the design of the geosynthetic reinforcement (GR) in a piled embankment. This paper further validates this model with measurements from seven...

Enhancing the Quality of Construction Environment by Minimizing the Cost Variance
Abstract Poor project execution and deliverable performance considered one of the most recurring problems in the construction industry. Most of the projects completed at sums much higher than the actual contract sum. This led us to analyze the...

Metaphor and Figurative Meaning Construction in Science and Technology (English and Spanish)
Abstract Metaphor is a cognitive tool that operates in both verbal and non-verbal communication, or in various modes simultaneously (Forceville, 2009, 2010). This paper explores the interrelation of conceptual, linguistic and visual metaphor in...

A Dynamic Pedestrian Route Choice Model Validated in a High Density Subway Station
Abstract Route choice models for pedestrians need to deal with the complexity of dynamic scenarios. Rather than producing a fixed path once a pedestrian is created, the path choice of each pedestrian must be continuously updated with local...

Analysis of Parabolic Trough Concentrator Mirror Shape Accuracy in different Measurement Setups
Abstract Mirror shape accuracy as a key optical performance parameter for parabolic trough collectors can be assessed accurately by common measurement systems proving the high quality of state-of-the-art mirror panels. However, measurement results...

Design Methods of Reinforce-concrete Frame Structure to Resist Progressive Collapse in Civil Engineering
Abstract Since the “9.11”terrorist event, the World Trade Center progressive collapsed in a flash, U.S. engineers began to really care about preventing progressive collapse in reinforced concrete buildings. When the accident has happened, the...
