RISApplication of a Multi-Person and Multi-Objective Decision-Making Model in Groundwater Resources Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The management of groundwater resources is complex, especially when decisions about the ecological environment and the social environment are considered. In addition to this, economic efficiency should be considered. The ...
Two-Step Approach of Stress Classification and Primary Structure Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A key problem in engineering applications of “design by analysis” approach is how to decompose a total stress field obtained by the finite element analysis into different stress categories ...
Nonlinear Energy Sink Inspired Design for Friction-Induced Vibration Suppression of Braking Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a nonlinear energy sink (NES) is designed and applied for the suppression of the friction-induced vibration (FIV) of a braking system. The equation of motion of the braking system, as well as the NES, is ...
Seasonal Evolution of Anomalous Rainband over East China Regulated by Sea Surface Temperature Anomalies in the Northern Hemisphere
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Modeling a Retention Treatment Basin for CSO
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Combined sewer overflows (CSOs) result in hazardous and unsightly contamination of receiving waters, particularly swimming areas. The removal of suspended solids and associated biological oxygen demand (BOD) can accelerate ...
Experimental Investigations of the Bending Fatigue Performance of TRC-Strengthened RC Beams in Conventional and Aggressive Chlorate Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To study the fatigue performance of a reinforced-concrete (RC) beam strengthened with textile-reinforced concrete (TRC), a four-point bending fatigue test was conducted, in which the strengthening forms, reinforcement ...
Long-Term Behavior of Prestressed Old-New Concrete Composite Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents both theoretical and experimental studies of the long-term behavior of prestressed old-new concrete composite beams under sustained loads. General differential equations governing the relationship between ...
Experimental Investigations of the Bending Fatigue Performance of TRC-Strengthened RC Beams in Conventional and Aggressive Chlorate Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To study the fatigue performance of a reinforced-concrete (RC) beam strengthened with textile-reinforced concrete (TRC), a four-point bending fatigue test was conducted, in which the strengthening forms, reinforcement ...
New Model for Predicting the Bearing Capacity of Large Strip Foundations on Soil under Combined Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The bearing capacity of large strip foundations under combined loading is an important issue in geotechnical engineering, which is related to the design and stability analysis of foundations such as gravity dams, retaining ...
Biomechanical Evaluation of Rigid Interspinous Process Fixation Combined With Lumbar Interbody Fusion Using Hybrid Testing Protocol
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rigid interspinous process fixation (RIPF) has been recently discussed as an alternative to pedicle screw fixation (PSF) for reducing trauma in lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) surgery. This study aimed to investigate ...
