A reuse concept proposed in the chapter tries to see how a designer can use existing design data as the basis for future designs without necessarily having to know how the data was derived, and without explicitly using iterative mathematical procedures.
In addition, the ultimate strengths were predicted by using existing design codes.
As illustrated herein, the aforementioned design problems are solved using existing design guides, such as the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) method.
The objective of this research was to determine if a marsh-pond-marsh wetland system could be described using existing design approaches used for constructed wetland design.
The feasibility using existing design codes to predict the load-carrying capacities of the stiffened composite columns is also dealt with in this paper.
Comparisons were made between the experimental results and the predicted load-carrying capacity using existing design codes, such as AIJ-2008, AISC-2005, BS5400-2005, DBJ/T 13-51-2010 and EC4-2005.
When Gain-Scheduled (GS) H∞ output-feedback controllers are designed for continuous-time Linear Parameter-Varying (LPV) systems via Parameter-Dependent Lyapunov Functions (PDLFs) using existing design methods, the designed controllers depend not only on the scheduling parameters but also on their derivatives.
A study in California, along the 16-lane Santa Monica Freeway (one of the busiest in the country, with 150,000 vehicle trips per day), found that bobcats and coyotes used existing underpasses — not designed for wildlife — to get to the other side.
Recently, engineers have mainly used existing CAD software for design assistance, which has increased the problems associated with experts, such as complex operation, a long design cycle, and low efficiency.
The design used existing parts where available from the M3, simplified where necessary to match the machining capacity present in Australia.
