Abstract: Aluminum alloys (AAs) are potential alternative constructional materials for low-temperature infrastructures in cold regions and liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks. This study investigated the mechanical properties ...

Abstract: The harsh marine environment in cold regions challenges the durability of concrete columns in offshore structures. In this study, a steel fiber-reinforced cement-based composite (SFRCC) jacket is proposed to strengthen ...

Abstract: In this paper, to reduce the computation load of federated Kalman filters, a simplified federated filtering algorithm for integrated navigation systems is presented. It has been known that the ...

Abstract: In general mechanics, systems must follow the mechanical equilibrium principle, the minimum potential energy principle, and the minimum dissipation power principle. This paper confirms that a rotating drill string in a ...

Abstract: Low-pressure cold spraying was used to deposit A5052 and Al coatings on structural Q355B steel to improve its fatigue performance. Through the experiments and finite-element simulation, the fatigue crack growth behavior ...

Abstract: Leachate recirculation in municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills operated as bioreactors offers significant economic and environmental benefits. However, vertical well (VW) recirculation may not be an effective method because ...

Abstract: In this paper, linear long-wave reflection by a rectangular obstacle with two scour trenches of power function profile is explored. A closed-form analytical solution in terms of the first and second kinds of Bessel functions ...
