Development of advanced numerical models for concentrically braced steel frame members and components
(NUI Galway, 2018-09-18)The behaviours of braced steel frame members and components are investigated in this project using finite element models that were developed to address the multi-scale mechanics of braced steel frame structures. The ... -
Salmonella enterica - biofilm formation and survival of disinfection treatment on food contact surfaces.
(2013-05-31)A recent report indicated that Salmonella was the most frequently identified agent in food-borne outbreaks in Europe. Salmonella can survive on surfaces and act as a source of cross-contamination. Biofilm formation may ... -
Seismic Design of Concentrically Braced Steel Frames
(2012-03-01)The aim of this project is to develop a robust numerical model that accurately replicates the behaviour of CBFs during earthquakes. This numerical model is then used to validate a codified performance based design approach ...
