Abstract: Settling velocity is an important constitutive parameter of particulate matter (PM) transported by runoff. Settling velocity is either explicitly or implicitly utilized when designing or modeling unit operations, and in ...

Abstract: In urban drainage, metals partition between dissolved

Abstract: Two types of low cycle fatigue tests were conducted along two principal orthotropic directions of an orthotropic Al-6061-T6 plate in strain control at room temperature: (1) reference fatigue ...

Abstract: Based on the summarization, and analysis of existing bus scheduling models and according to Chinese conditions, the bus route scheduling problem is studied using the theory of stochastic service system (queuing theory). A ...

Abstract: This paper presents a method of approaching the attitude control of an autonomously hovering unmanned helicopter system. The proportional-integral sliding mode controller (PISMC) features a combination of the conventional ...

Abstract: Anisotropic cyclic stress-strain curves (CSSCs) were obtained from fully reversed cyclic tests in controlled strain on two orientations of specimens made from an Al-6061-T6 plate (along the rolling ...

Abstract: A system with a combination of upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor and constructed wetlands (CWs) has not yet been applied to river water polluted by both sewage and swine wastewater. In this study, a pilot ...

Abstract: Quantitative safety assessment of offshore platforms under ship collision is a hot topic. Numerical simulation is a powerful tool to evaluate the damage and failure mode of offshore structures under collision. This paper ...

Abstract: The main problem addressed in this research is the detection of three types of defects in underground drainage pipelines: gravel intrusion, obstacles, and foreign objects. To tackle this, improvements have been made by ...
