Curved Strain Wedge Analysis of Laterally Loaded Flexible Piles in Various Soil Types
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper establishes an approximate circular cone strain wedge model and proposes an analytical method that can effectively connect practice with theory for the behavior of laterally loaded flexible piles with both ...
Highway Construction Work-Zone Safety: Effectiveness of Traffic-Control Devices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Turnout Fault Diagnosis Based on CNNs with Self-Generated Samples
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: China’s rapid development of high-speed railways has imposed increasing requirements for safety and reliability of signal systems, especially the critical part: turnouts. In this paper, we propose an intelligent fault ...
Energy-Based Analysis of Laterally Loaded Caissons with Large Diameters under Small-Strain Conditions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To better predict the response of laterally loaded caissons and the displacement distribution around the foundations, three different beam theories [Timoshenko beam theory with vertical (z) displacement in soil, Timoshenko ...
Attitude Coordinated Control for Docked Spacecraft Based on Estimated Coupling Torque
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When a service spacecraft docks successfully with its target spacecraft and forms a docked spacecraft, it will cause a large shift in the dynamics of the docked spacecraft. Not only do the mass properties change, but so ...
Evaluation of Dynamic Passing Sight Distance Problem Using a Finite-Element Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sufficient passing sight distance is an important control for two-lane rural highway design to minimize the possibility of a head-on collision between passing and opposing vehicles. Traditionally, passing zones are marked ...
Simulating Bromide Transport from Soil to Overland Flow: Application and Evaluation of Interfacial Diffusion-Controlled Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The interfacial diffusion-controlled models of chemical transport across the interface of the soil surface and overland flow are physically based and can be easily expanded to include other functional modules to predict ...
Vertical Structure of the Upper–Indian Ocean Thermal Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multi-time-scale variabilities of the Indian Ocean (IO) temperature over 0–700 m are revisited from the perspective of vertical structure. Analysis of historical data for 1955–2018 identifies two dominant types of vertical ...
Mechanics of Three-Dimensional Soft Network Materials With a Class of Bio-Inspired Designs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inspired by the helix-shaped microstructures found in many collagenous tissues, a class of three-dimensional (3D) soft network materials that incorporate similar helical microstructures into periodic 3D lattices was reported ...
Collision Risk Warning Model for Construction Vehicles Based on YOLO and DeepSORT Algorithms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Collision accidents of construction vehicles frequently occur during the construction of building projects. It is difficult to warn of collision risk efficiently by using the safety control methods of on-site inspection ...
