Conceptualising engineering student perceptions of synchronous and asynchronous online learning (2023)
Journal Article
Mohammad Zadeh, M., Prendergast, L. J., Tew, J. D., & Beneroso Vallejo, D. (2024). Conceptualising engineering student perceptions of synchronous and asynchronous online learning. European Journal of Engineering Education, 49(1), 94-112. https://doi.org/10.1080/03043797.2023.2201178

Students’ perceptions towards synchronous and asynchronous online delivery modes of three engineering courses, in a large UK university is conceptualised, inspired by the Community of Inquiry theoretical framework. Using a qualitative methodology, 76... Read More about Conceptualising engineering student perceptions of synchronous and asynchronous online learning.

Analytical approach for seismic analysis of onshore wind turbines considering soil-structure interaction (2023)
Journal Article
Bozyigit, B., Bozyigit, I., & Prendergast, L. (2023). Analytical approach for seismic analysis of onshore wind turbines considering soil-structure interaction. Structures, 51, 226-241. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.istruc.2023.03.048

The aim of this study is to present an efficient analytical approach, based on a combination of transfer matrix formulations and modal superposition, to perform seismic response analysis of onshore wind turbines (WT) incorporating the effects of soil...

Comparison of risk-based methods for bridge scour management (2023)
Journal Article
Pregnolato, M., Giordano, P. F., Prendergast, L. J., Vardanega, P. J., & Limongelli, M. P. (2023). Comparison of risk-based methods for bridge scour management. Sustainable and Resilient Infrastructure, 8(5), 514-531. https://doi.org/10.1080/23789689.2023.2175141

Scour is a significant cause of bridge failure, and resulting bridge closures are likely to generate significant disruption to infrastructure networks. The management of scour-susceptible bridges is a significant challenge for improving transport res... Read More about Comparison of risk-based methods for bridge scour management.

Analysis of the response of a roadway bridge under extreme flooding-related events: Scour and debris-loading (2023)
Journal Article
Kosič, M., Prendergast, L., & Anžlin, A. (2023). Analysis of the response of a roadway bridge under extreme flooding-related events: Scour and debris-loading. Engineering Structures, 279, Article 115607. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.engstruct.2023.115607

Hydraulic actions on bridges are a leading cause of failure, especially due to the occurrence of scour erosion. Due to climate change, flooding and scour risks are exacerbating for bridges worldwide, leading to a significant stress burden on asset ma...
