Abstract: Load transfer in rigid pavements needs to be appropriately considered for portland cement concrete (PCC) pavement analysis and evaluation. One assumption has been extensively used: that the sum of deflections on two sides ...

Abstract: A three-dimensional mathematical model and numerical techniques were developed for simulating a moving gas metal arc welding process. The model is used to calculate the transient distributions ...

Abstract: This paper presents a safety analysis of high-sided road vehicles running on a long span cable-stayed bridge when the road vehicle enters a sharp-edged crosswind gust while the bridge is oscillating under fluctuating winds. ...
