Creep behavior of structural timber under varying humidity conditions

The effects on wood of simultaneous mechanical and moisture loading are studied. A constitutive model is given for the case of uniaxial stress in the longitudinal direction. The model has been quantified on the basis of test results found in literature. The validity of the model was checked independently against other tests and a number of practical load situations were studied. Finally the servic

Time-lapse seismic analysis of pressure depletion in the Southern Gas Basin

In the Southern Gas Basin (SGB) of the North Sea there are many mature gas fields where time-lapse monitoring could be very beneficial in extending production life. However, the conditions are not immediately attractive for time-lapse seismic assessment. This is primarily because the main production effect to be assessed is a pore pressure reduction and frame stiffening because of gas production i

Will ISA be effective? Analysis of the active accelerator pedal’s effect on different driver groups

The effects of the Active Accelerator Pedal (AAP), on speed behaviour of drivers with different backgrounds and attitudes was analysed. It was found that most of the drivers initially reduced their speed to the speed limit. However, after driving with the system for a while, speeds increased. Drivers who had a high speed without the AAP started to speed again. This finding suggests that an advisor

Identification of IT Incidents for Improved Risk Analysis by Using Machine Learning

Today almost every system or service, e.g., water, power supply, transportation, etc. is dependent on IT systems, and failure of these systems have serious and negative effects on the society. IT incidents are critical for the society as they can stop the function of critical systems and services. Moreover, in a software engineering context risk analysis is an important activity for the developmen

Modeling sediment storage and transfer for simulating regional coastal evolution

he regional coastal evolution model Cascade was enhanced to better describe the transfer and storage of sediment. Focus was on the cross-shore exchange of material from the subaerial to the sub-aqueous portion of the beach and on shoal evolution at coastal inlets. Cross-shore material exchange now includes erosion due to wave impact and overwash, and barrier and dune build-up by wind. Cascade was

Rhetorical business : A study of marketing work in the spirit of contradiction

Popular Abstract in English This book investigates marketing work in professional service organizations from a rhetorical perspective. It comes to the conclusion that this work is accomplished by self-reflexive marketers who are reminiscent of the ancient sophists – a diverse group of itinerant advisors whom came to Athens around the fourth century BCE for business reasons. Marketers travel – as dMarketing has traditionally been understood from the perspective of marketing management. This causes problems when we study marketing practices because the normative discourse of marketing management is not particularly useful for describing the day-to-day work of marketing practitioners. This calls for marketing research from new perspectives. Rhetorical business – A study of marketing work in t
