Some Geomechanical and Petrophysical Linkages Within Paleo-Sedimentary Beds of Ghana
Abstract: Instability issues have been a major challenge in the Sekondian Series of South-Western Ghana. This is particularly affecting civil works and environmental mitigation efforts across the formation as extensive weathered profile impedes structural integrity. Uniaxial Compressive Strength (UCS) of lithological units which is a critical stability measure in most engineering projects requires quality sample of appropriate dimension for its determination. Samples for this important design parameter cannot be easily obtained …

Static Analysis of Precast Concrete Piles using Resonance Moment–Displacement Method
Abstract: This paper presents the results of static analysis of circular precast single piles from critical buckling load by resonance moment-displacement approach. The circular precast single piles of different support conditions; pinned-pinned, fixed-fixed, and fixed-pinned were investigated. The critical buckling load was evaluated as the resonance moment-total deflection ratio. A computer program coded in basic language was invoked to carry out a composite analysis of single piles from critical buckling load …

Thermo-elastic flexural analysis of cross-ply laminated beams
Abstract: The present paper is concerned with the thermal analysis of symmetric and antisymmetric cross ply laminated beams subjected to temperature distribution across the thickness of laminated beam. A higher order shear deformation theory is used. The displacement field in terms of thickness coordinate is expanded up to cubic term to have a quadratic variation of the transverse shear strains and transverse shear stresses. This avoids the need of shear correction …
