Abstract: The mechanical reinforcement effect of roots on soil shear strength is widely recognized and can be used in slope stability analyses based on the limit equilibrium or finite-element method. Although some advanced root ...

Abstract: The improved properties of ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA)-modified cement-based materials have not been fully clarified, especially crack resistance and pore structure. The purpose of this research was to investigate the ...

Abstract: The stationary Markov process model is widely used to predict the geological conditions in tunnel excavation projects. However, the validity of the stationary assumption made in the model is questionable. The prediction ...

Abstract: Research on the dynamic response of subgrades is essential for designing heavy-haul railway subgrades. Therefore, a dynamic stress field test was carried out on the Daqin Railway using a three-dimensional dynamic soil ...

Abstract: The body-in-white finite element model of a type of domestic car was established. The effectiveness and the reliability of the numerical simulation model were verified by comparing the results of prototype vehicle’s ...
