Abstract: The present study builds a regional urban resilience index model through ecological density, spatial distance, and social division based on the Density, Distance and Division (3D) theory of new economic geography. In total, ...

Abstract: Water has a significant influence on rock mechanical and fracture behavior in geologic engineering. This study investigates the water weakening effects on mechanical properties, as well as the microscopic failure, of hard ...

Abstract: With the development of infrastructure, new tunnel crossings below existing bridges are becoming increasingly common. This paper presents a case history of a shallow, double-line tunnel crossing below a bridge on a hillslope ...

Abstract: With the development of energy markets and the introduction of renewable energy certificates (RECs), a regional integrated energy system (RIES) may participate in an energy wholesale market flexibly. In this paper, a bilevel ...

Abstract: An innovative self-centering steel–timber hybrid shear wall (SC-STHSW) system is proposed in this paper. The SC-STHSW system is composed of two subsystems: the posttensioned (PT) steel frame, and the infill light-frame ...

Abstract: Post-doping construction technology overcomes the difficulties of demanding construction requirements of warm-mix epoxy asphalt mixture (EAM) that limit its application, and it provides a new idea for the scaled application ...

Abstract: Due to the effects of low-pressure and hypoxic environments at high altitudes, drivers in high-altitude areas exhibit increased perceived reaction times, leading to challenges in accurate speed estimation and handling ...

Abstract: The unique natural geographic environment at high altitudes, characterized by low partial pressure, significantly reduces blood oxygen levels and affects human systems. These impacts directly influence drivers’ psychophysiological ...
