Changes in Pore-Water Pressure and Deformation of Saturated Frozen Soil with Rising Temperature and Constant Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In frozen soil engineering, the foundations of structures are particularly susceptible to uneven settlement and cracking due to changes in external temperature and load, posing threats to the safety of structures and ...
Experimental Investigation of a Thermally Responsive Actuator Based on Metallic Molybdenum Disulfide: A Conceptual Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Actuators that convert external stimuli to mechanical energy have aroused strong attention for emerging applications in robotics, artificial muscles, and other fields. However, their limited performance under harsh operating ...
