Temporal and spatial variations of stable oxygen (18O) and hydrogen (2H) isotope measurements in precipitation act as important proxies for changing hydro-meteorological and regional and global climate patterns. Temporal trends in time series of the... Read More about Temporal trends in δ18O composition of precipitation in Germany: Insights from time series modelling and trend analysis.

Long-term cyclic load capacity and residual life of masonry arch bridges (2014)
Report
Tomor, A. (2016). Long-term cyclic load capacity and residual life of masonry arch bridges

How long can existing masonry arch bridges continue to carry heavily increased traffic loading? Is there a weight limit for masonry bridges below which no long-term damage will occur to the structure? Can the life expectancy for masonry arch bridges...

Acoustic emission monitoring of masonry arch bridges (2014)
Report
Tomor, A. (2016). Acoustic emission monitoring of masonry arch bridges

Acoustic emission (AE) monitoring has the unique ability to record crack propagation inside the material and indicate the condition of the structure. Although AE has been widely used for concrete and steel bridges , its use for masonry structures is... Read More about Acoustic emission monitoring of masonry arch bridges.
