Abstract: Natural vibrations of a simply supported rectangular bimodulus thick plate subjected to a combination of pure bending stress and extensional stress in the plane of the plate is investigated. ...

Abstract: Experimental research is conducted to determine the long—age statistical parameters of road pavement properties such as flexural strength, flexural elastic modulus, compressive strength, and splitting strength after ...

Abstract: Microwave-assisted ferric chloride (FeCl3) pretreated rice straw was utilized for reducing sugars production and ethanol production with free and immobilized cells of Trichoderma viride and Sacharomyces cerevisiae. The ...

Abstract: The single-side salt-freeze test was used to optimize the concrete mix design for improving the resistance of concrete to salt scaling. The results show that the resistance of concrete to salt scaling improves with decreasing ...

Abstract: The discretization of the generalized Nash model (GNM) has been made in such a way that it can be applied easily to the sample-data system for flood routing. First, the variable Sn-curve was introduced to simplify the GNM. ...

Abstract: The use of recycled coarse aggregate (RCA) can reduce the consumption of natural coarse aggregate (NCA) and preserve the natural environment. The accurate calculation of the compressive stress-strain relationship of recycled ...
