Intro to Google Scholar
Google Scholar is a search engine that limits searches to scholarly articles, books, and documents. It uses the same search technology as Google but focuses only on academic sources. When searching on campus, it links directly to the university library's resources to allow access to full-text articles. When searching off campus, users must set up Scholar Settings on their personal computer to enable linking back to library databases for full-text access to articles, otherwise they will only see search results without knowing if the full-text is available through the university.

BIS3350 Oct 2016
This document provides guidance on developing critical searching skills for coursework. It discusses evaluating information sources and using search techniques like broad, narrow, phrase and academic searches. Quality references are important for marking criteria and will be evaluated based on the reference itself, the reason for selecting it, and the search techniques used. Being critical means thoughtfully considering information rather than accepting it at face value, and carefully evaluating sources by considering aspects like the author and publisher. The document encourages practicing search skills and provides tips and resources on searching, referencing, and avoiding plagiarism.
Deciding which search tool to use
This document provides an overview of different search tools that can be used to find information for academic research. It discusses searching the library catalog, using the discovery tool, education databases, cited reference searching in tools like Web of Science, searching Google Scholar and Google Advanced, specific journals, and websites. The key recommendations are to assess information needs before searching, use multidisciplinary and subject-specific databases, track search terms and results, and get help from a librarian if needed. Planning the search approach and using different tools can help find relevant information efficiently.
Planning and preparing to search
This document provides guidance on planning and preparing effective searches of library databases for an IB Diploma research project. It recommends brainstorming keywords and concepts related to the topic, and organizing them into themes or tables. Boolean operators like AND, OR and NOT should be used to combine keywords into search statements. Practice searches using broad and complex statements with quotation marks, truncation, wildcards and proximity operators. Develop potential search statements by combining keywords related to each theme. Refine searches based on results and seek library assistance as needed.

7 losses in prestress
Prestress loss occurs as prestress reduces over time from its initial applied value. There are two types of prestress loss - immediate losses during prestressing/transfer and long-term time-dependent losses. Immediate losses include elastic shortening, anchorage slip, and friction. Long-term losses include creep and shrinkage of concrete and relaxation of prestressing steel. The quantification of losses is based on strain compatibility between concrete and steel. For a pre-tensioned concrete sleeper, the percentage loss due to elastic shortening was calculated to be approximately 2.83% based on the stress in concrete at the level of the tendons.
Introduction to prestressed concrete
Pre-stressed concrete uses tensioned steel strands or bars to place concrete in compression before application of service loads. This counters the tensile stresses induced by loads and prevents cracking. There are two main methods: pre-tensioning applies tension before pouring concrete, while post-tensioning tensions strands after concrete curing. Pre-stressed concrete allows for smaller and lighter structures that resist loads, deflection, and cracking better than reinforced concrete.
