Abstract: A simple model has been developed to estimate the sensible thermodynamic properties such as Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, heat capacity, and entropy of hydrocarbons over a wide range of temperatures ...

Abstract: This paper investigated the influence of axial deformation on the structural behavior of a high-rise twin tower connected building during its construction. A comprehensive structural health monitoring (SHM) system was ...

Abstract: Despite extant studies having widely identified and explored the effects of different factors on interorganizational knowledge sharing (IKS) in interorganizational projects (IOPs), the complex interrelationships between ...

Abstract: Glass-fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites with innovative sleeve joints are examined for space frame assembly. The sleeve joint connects one end of a steel tubular connector with a circular solid or hollow GFRP ...

Abstract: Due to the uncontrollable factors in the installation process, the angular misalignments of the inner and outer races may exist in deep groove ball bearings. In order to analyze the performances of bearings with misalignments, ...

Abstract: High salinity gas reservoirs are prone to salt deposition in the middle and late stages of development, resulting in the decrease of porosity and permeability, which seriously affects the development of gas reservoirs. ...
