Abstract: MgO-based cementitious materials have attracted increasing attentions due to their advantages of low energy consumption, fire resistance, and low CO2 emission. This study develops a new reactive MgO cement (RMC)-silica ...

Abstract: Presented in this paper is a combined experimental and analytical modeling study of the strength of pultruded fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) single-bolted double-lap joints subjected to tensile loading and elevated ...

Abstract: Singularity analysis is one of the most important issues in the field of parallel manipulators. An approach for singularity analysis should be able to not only identify all possible singularities ...

Abstract: It is well known that

Abstract: A mathematical model of dam-break shock waves, or flood waves, in channels of trapezoidal cross section is presented. When the model is applied to channels of rectangular cross section, a new theoretical solution expressed ...

Abstract: Bolted connections are often used in pultruded glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) structures. Blind bolts, which require installation from one side only, become convenient when access is limited to tighten the ordinary ...

Abstract: To obtain the relationship between the hydraulic characteristics and the breach shape, a new method is developed for calculation of the hydraulic characteristics of dam‐break waves in an arbitrary channel, whose perimeter ...

Abstract: It is common to perform small-scale prototyping before large-scale application of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology and in this case size effects can have an important effect. There has been limited study to date ...

Abstract: Urban green spaces (UGSs) have potential significance for urban ecosystems, as they provide environmental benefits and benefits for residents' physical activity and mental health. Objective assessments of UGSs are necessary ...
