RISRelationship between Urban Transport and Residential Location Choice
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a fuzzy three-objective optimization model to study the relationship between residential location choice and urban transport in a city. In the proposed model, the fuzzy objectives are minimizing the ...
Urbanization Effect on the Diurnal Temperature Range: Different Roles under Solar Dimming and Brightening
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ased on the 1960?2009 meteorological data from 559 stations across China, the urbanization effect on the diurnal temperature range (DTR) was evaluated in this study. Different roles of urbanization were specially detected ...
Risk-Based Transit Schedule Design for a Fixed Route from the View of Equity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This work proposed a model for transit schedule design by integrating the spatial-equity considerations into the slack-time setting problem. The proposed model can help to design a transit service for more equitable ...
Influence of Three Levee-Strengthening Systems on Overtopping Hydraulic Parameters and Hydraulic Equivalency Analysis between Steady and Intermittent Overtopping
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Different types of strengthening systems were introduced to protect the crest and land-side slope of the levees against surge overflow and wave overtopping after Hurricane Katrina. Three levee-strengthening systems, ...
Study of Scour around Submarine Pipeline with a Rubber Plate or Rigid Spoiler in Wave Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents results from laboratory experimental model studies investigating scour by waves around a pipeline attached to a flexible rubber plate or rigid spoiler. The rubber plate was placed between the submarine ...
Evolution Rules of Rolling Waves on Slopes Based on Artificial Flat Slopes of Loess
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: We used a fixed-bed flume test and ultrasonic sensor measurement technology to study the evolution of the characteristics of thin-layer flow roll waves on a sloped surface. The results indicated that there was a positive ...
Simulating Runoff and Actual Evapotranspiration via Time-Variant Parameter Method: The Effects of Hydrological Model Structures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Modeling methodologies capable of coping with changing catchment conditions are becoming more important and are critical to ensure credible model predictions because the hydrologic process of the catchment is inevitably ...
Calculation of Dynamical Phase Diagram in U-Zr Binary System Under Irradiation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: By taking into account the ballistic mixing caused by recoil implantation and cascade collision, a model that describing effective free energy for alloys under irradiation from the perspective of diffusion equilibrium was ...
Impacts of Safety Capacity and Personalized Safety Training on Construction Workers’ Hazard Recognition Using Eye-Tracking Technology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Despite efforts of governments and practitioners in formulating and implementing safety regulations and measures, it remains challenging for construction workers to entirely detect and avoid construction hazards, resulting ...
Influence of Wind Force on a Silt-Muddy Coast: Huanghua Harbor Coast, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Huanghua Harbor, a semiclosed harbor with three 13.32–23.4 km-long breakwaters forming a coal port and a general port, is located on the silt-muddy coast of the Bohai Sea in China. Frequent gales cause thick sedimentation ...
