Abstract: The load-carrying capacity of existing slab bridges is commonly calculated based on the equivalent width recommended by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO). Interest in the field ...

Abstract: The dynamical behavior of a parametrically excited simple rigid disk-rotor supported by active magnetic bearings (AMB) is investigated, without gyroscopic effects. The principal parametric resonance ...

Abstract: Subsurface drainage systems installed in soil overlying artesian aquifers should be spaced to handle both upward artesian water flow and normal downward seepage flow from irrigation and rainfall. Proper drain spacing depends ...
