Abstract: Numerous nonlinear theories of consolidation for clay soils have been proposed in the past. Most of them are based on constitutive models of clays whose structural property is neglected, yet the natural structured soils ...

Abstract: The relationship between flow speed and pore pressure gradient does not follow the classical Darcy’s law for seepage within high-permeability and low-permeability media. Thus, considering the non-Darcian flow described by ...

Abstract: Preload, which is widely applied in linear motion ball guide (LMBG) to eliminate clearance and increase stiffness, gradually decreases owing to wear, resulting in the degradation of the load-bearing capability and dynamic ...

Abstract: The process of a concrete target subjected to a tandem warhead was studied by means of field testing and numerical simulation. First, field testing of a shaped charge impacting the concrete target was carried out, in which ...
