A General-Purpose Multiphase and Multicomponent Computational Solver for Biogeochemical Reaction-Advection-Dispersion Processes in Porous and Non-Porous Media (No. R954)
Published 2015Abstract This document describes the functioning principles and practical use of BRTSim framework at its version 1 stage of development. BRTSim (BioReactive Transport Simulator) is a general‐purpose multiphase and ...Open AccessReport, Research -
A Laboratory Facility for Flocculation-Related Experiments (No. R952)
Published 2015This report describes the design and functions of a new experimental facility built in the School of Civil Engineering at the University of Sydney used for the investigation of flocculation-related processes. This facility ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Formulation and Implementation of General Thin-Walled Open-Section Beam-Column Elements in Opensees (No. R961)
Published 2016The formulation and implementation of beam-column finite elements for the general thin-walled open cross-sections within the OpenSees framework is presented. To account for the non-coincident location of shear centre and ...Open AccessReport, Research -
The Generalised Constrained Finite Strip Method for Thin-Walled, Prismatic Members Under Applied Shear (No. R963)
Published 2016The constrained finite strip method (cFSM) is an extension of the semi-analytical finite strip method (SAFSM) of structural analysis of thin-walled members, where consideration of the displacement fields utilised and of ...Open AccessReport, Research -
In-Plane Behaviour of Web-Tapered Beams (No. R956)
Published 2015Shear stress distributions in tapered web I-beams are incorrectly predicted by the conventional beam analysis method used for uniform beams. More accurate predictions are obtained by adopting the finding for wedges that ...Open AccessReport, Research
