Seismic Response of Earth Dam with Innovative Polymer Antiseepage Wall
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Polymer antiseepage walls have advantages over conventional antiseepage walls in terms of environmental protect and construction convenience. Therefore, it is widely applied in seepage-proofing, reinforcement projects in ...
Analysis of Factors Affecting the Comfort of Vehicle Occupants Due to Bridgehead Jumping
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To study the influence of bumping at a bridgehead on the comfort of vehicle occupants, this paper comprehensively considers the factors such as bridgehead drop, driving speed, and the road’s horizontal and vertical alignment, ...
Closure to “Flexural Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams with TRC Tension Zone Cover” by Shiping Yin, Shilang Xu, and Henglin Lv
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Discussion of “Dam-Break Flows: Acquisition of Experimental Data through an Imaging Technique and 2D Numerical Modeling” by F. Aureli, A. Maranzoni, P. Mignosa, and C. Ziveri
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Analytical Solution of Shallow Water Equations for Ideal Dam-Break Flood along a Wet-Bed Slope
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The existing analytical solutions of dam-break flow do not consider simultaneously the effects of wet downstream bottom and bed slope on the dam-break wave propagation. In this study, a new analytical solution for the ...
Numerical Investigations for Passive and Active Flow Control on Tiltrotor–Wing Aerodynamic Interactions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Numerical investigations for passive and active controls on aerodynamic interactions of the rotor/wing of a tiltrotor aircraft are conducted in hovering flight. The moving embedded grid method and the helicopter code CLORNS ...
Selection Optimal Method of Evaporation Duct Model Based on Sensitivity Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The evaporation duct is an abnormal refractive phenomenon with wide distribution and frequency occurrence at the boundary between the atmosphere and the ocean, which directly affects electromagnetic wave propagation. In ...
Mechanism and Strength Characteristics of Microbially Induced Carbonate Precipitation and Lime Composite Cured Soft Clay
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Soft clay is characterized by high compressibility, low permeability, low strength, and high water content, making it a poor substrate for construction. Hence, soil treatment is often required for soft clay. However, the ...
Influence and Mechanism of Coflow Jet Airfoil Parameters in Subsonic Flow
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Many studies have focused on the application and mechanism of coflow jet (CFJ) flow control technique in incompressible flow. However, the influence of CFJ parameters in subsonic flow is still uncertain. Five major CFJ ...
Performance Prediction of a Transport Gasifier–Based IGCC System with CO2 Capture under Uncertainties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, a transport gasifier–based integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) with 90% CO2 capture rate was analyzed to predict possible net power output and net efficiency distributions in the system under ...
