Conceptual and Mathematical Modeling of Insect-Bordne Plant Diseases: Theory and Application to Flavescence Doree in Grapevine (No. R947)
Published 2014Insect-borne plant diseases recur commonly in wild plants and in agricultural crops, and are responsible for severe losses in terms of produce yield and monetary return. Mathematical models of insect-borne plant diseases ...Open AccessReport, Research -
The behaviour and design of concentrically loaded T-section steel columns (No. R933)
Published 2013The buckling behaviour of T-section columns is discussed in detail followed by a numerical study using geometric and material (GMNIA) analysis to produce column strengths for a wide range of geometries of Tsections and ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Experimental Study of Longitudinally Stiffened Web Channels Subjected Predominantly to Shear (No. R950)
Published 2014The buckling and strength capacities of channel members depend on the geometry of the whole section. For channel sections, the shear buckling modes occur mainly in the web. The structural efficiency of the sections in shear ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Bending and Buckling of Tapered Steel Beam Structures (No. R939)
Published 2013This paper describes an efficient finite element method of analysing the elastic in-plane bending and out-ofplane buckling of indeterminate beam structures whose members may be tapered and of mono-symmetric I cross-section. ...Open AccessReport, Research -
Numerical Simulation of High Strength Cold-Formed Supacee Sections in Combined Bending and Shear (No. R913)
Published 2010The report describes numerical non-linear simulation, based on the finite element method (FEM) using the software package ABAQUS/Standard, of high strength cold-formed SupaCee sections in shear, combined bending and shear, ...Open AccessReport, Research
