Nguyen, Anh Rin (author), Huynh, Ngoc Thi (author), Truong-Hong, Linh (author), Phan, Anh Thu Thi (author)In recent years, there has been a significant increase in inspecting and evaluating transport infrastructure. Traditionally, these structural data were collected manually by measuring and redrawing the construction against design documents. In recent decades, laser scanning technology can help collect 3D data rapidly and accurately. The 3D...conference paper 2023

Morandi, P. (author), Albanesi, L. (author), Graziotti, F. (author), li Piani, T. (author), Penna, A. (author), Magenes, G. (author)In this paper, a dataset collecting the results of in-plane cyclic tests on unreinforced masonry piers, carried out within different research projects, is presented. The dataset includes brick and block walls with different materials, bed-and head-joint typologies, dimensions, boundary conditions and vertical applied loads. The development of...journal article 2018

Messali, F. (author), Rots, J.G. (author)In recent years, seismic assessment of existing unreinforced masonry (URM) structures is being increasingly based on nonlinear methods. The in-plane displacement capacity represents one of the most crucial yet still debated features of the nonlinear behaviour of URM piers. International codes often employ empirical models to estimate the pier...journal article 2018

Albanesi, Luca (author), Morandi, Paolo (author), Graziotti, Francesco (author), li Piani, T. (author), Penna, Andrea (author), Magenes, Guido (author)The lateral resistance represents one of the most significant wall parameters to be used in the seismic analyses for the design/assessment of masonry buildings. In this article, an investigation on in-plane lateral strength of URM piers has been proposed thorough a comparison between the results from codified criteria and the outcomes of several...conference paper 2018

Hong, S.T. (author), Vrijling, J.K. (author), Stive, M.J.F. (author)In the Mekong Delta Vietnam, the construction of sluices with the purpose of retaining fresh water and preventing salt water intrusion potentially plays a very important role. However, the structures constructed in small rivers according to local or traditional technology revealed many disadvantages related to the economical, evacuation and...conference paper 2013

Nabi, M. (author), De Vriend, H.J. (author), Mosselman, E. (author), Sloff, C.J. (author), Shimizu, Y. (author)We present a 3-D physics-based high-resolution modeling approach to the dynamics of underwater ripples and dunes. The flow is modeled by large eddy simulation on a Cartesian grid with local refinements. The sediment transport is modeled by computing pickup, transport over the bed, transport in the water column, and deposition of rigid spherical...journal article 2013

De Sonneville, B. (author), Van Velzen, G. (author), Verheij, H.J. (author), Dorst, K. (author)Traditional guidelines on rock protection at circular piers predominantly focus on preventing shear failure (by choosing a sufficiently large rock size), winnowing failure (by designing an appropriate filter) and edge failure (by selecting a sufficient extent). In particular areas (e.g. in an eroding river channel or in an area with large-scale...conference paper 2012
