    • Characterization and engineering properties of dry and ponded class-F fly ash 
      Bachus, R. C.; Terzariol, M.; Pasten, C.; Chong, S. H.; Dai, S.; Cha, M. S.; Kim, S.; Jang, J.; Papadopoulos, E.; Roshankhah, S.; Lei, L.; Garcia, A.; Park, J.; Sivaram, A.; Santamarina, F.; Ren, X.; Santamarina, J. C. (American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), 2019)
      Characterization studies conducted on Class-F fly-ash specimens gathered from different producers in the southeastern United States confirm general trends reported for fly ash worldwide. Additional tests and detailed ...
    • Process for refining copper in solid state 
      Villarroel, (Elsevier Science Ltd, 1999)
      A process for removing impurities from copper concentrate prior to smelting is presented here. The concentrate is subjected to thermal decomposition in a vacuum chamber at temperatures of about 950 °C. This pretreatment ...
    • Time-variant modal parameters and response behavior of a base-isolated building tested on a shake table 
      Astroza, Rodrigo; Gutiérrez, Gonzalo; Repenning, Christian; Hernández, Francisco (Earthquake Engineering Research Institute, 2018)
      This paper presents the identification of the instantaneous modal properties and the experimental response of a full-scale, five-story base-isolated RC building tested on a shake table. A suite of earthquake motions of ...
    • Uncertainty quantification and propagation in the modeling of liquefiable sands 
      Mercado, Vicente; Ochoa-Cornejo, Felipe; Astroza, Rodrigo; El-Sekelly, Waleed; Abdoun, Tarek; Pastén, Cesar; Hernández, Francisco (Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
      This paper combines data from laboratory, centrifuge testing, and numerical tools to highlight the predictive capabilities of the Bayesian method for uncertainty quantification and propagation. The Bayesian approach is ...
