Advanced structural health monitoring system for bridges in Sri Lanka

Rajapaksha, D; Lewangamage, CS; Vishnu, P [Conference-Abstract]

Bridges are a critical component of the transportation infrastructure system because a failure in a particular bridge may affect a wide range of areas adversely. Also, the intensity and frequency of natural shocks and ...
Analysing the gap between predicted and actual operational energy consumption in buildings: a review

Rajithan, M; Soorige, D; Amarasinghe, SDIA [Conference-Abstract]

Operational energy consumption in buildings has a crucial impact on global energy consumption. Nevertheless, significant energy savings can be achieved in buildings if properly designed, constructed, and operated. Building ...
Analysis and numerical simulation of semi-circle bending fatigue crack propagation of asphalt mixture

Huang, L; Zhang, P; Song, W; Feng, X; Yang, S [Conference-Full-text]

In order to study the fatigue crack propagation characteristics of asphalt mixture, a model of fatigue crack dynamically propagating was established based on the Paris law modified with fracture energy release rate. Four ...
Analysis of feasibility of blockchain technology for international trade related to Sri Lankan construction industry

Weerakoon, HD; Chandanie, H [Conference-Abstract]

Sri Lankan (SL) construction industry has been trading with overseas suppliers to fulfil the need for material and technology. This process faces many issues due to the poor digitalisation of the industry. The financial ...
Analysis of geopolitical and economic threats to the Port of Colombo

Gunawardana, JRNT; Edirisinghe, L [Conference-Full-text]

The port of Colombo is the main seaport in Sri Lanka which operates as a transhipment hub in South Asia. However, the various scenarios that have been favourable to the port of Colombo to date, not remain the same. Identifying ...
Analysis of multi-day extreme rainfall events in Kelani River basin

Chathuranga, GK; Fernando, WCDK; De Silva, PKC [Conference-Abstract]

Floods, one of the major disasters in Sri Lanka occur not only due to a single daily rainfall but due to multiday rainfall events. Thus, to safeguard the properties, analysis of the multiday rainfall events is more ...
Analysis of skidding potential and safe vehicle speeds on wet horizontal pavement curves

Peng, J; Chu, L; Fwa, TF [Conference-Full-text]

Skidding on wet horizontal pavement curves is a major traffic safety concern. Themaximum safe driving speed against skidding is an important threshold for safe driving. However, because of the complex tire-pavement-fluid ...
Analysis of torque sensorless steer by wire system using the bilateral tele-operation concept

Senevirathne, EH; Abeykoon, AMHS; Wijewardhana, WMTG [Conference-Full-text]

The mechanical linkage of the steering column can ideally be replaced by a bilateral controller-based steer by wire system. This paper presents an intuitive method of designing a bilaterally controlled steer by wire system ...
Analysis on design standards of bus terminals in Sri Lanka

Medawatte, V; Sirisoma, N [Conference-Abstract]
