Abstract: An energy approach previously developed as an alternative to the conventional dynamic pile-driving control methods (e.g.,

Abstract: A three-span-continuous girder bridge has to be integrally lifted by 3 m to meet increased navigation capacity. This paper mainly introduces the lifting system mechanism, construction process, and bridge jack-up monitoring. ...

Abstract: Nowadays most hollow cylinder apparatus (HCA) in the world can only apply two dynamic loads, namely the axial load

Abstract: Rockburst prediction is of crucial importance to the design and construction of many underground projects. Insufficient knowledge, lack of characterizing information, and noisy data restrain rock mechanics engineers from ...

Abstract: A new optimization method for optimal charge scheme calculation is proposed to reduce undesired phenomenon in ring blasting, including brow damage, overcrushing, and bulking yield, which are caused by the unreasonable ...

Abstract: Sandwich panels have attracted widespread attention owing to their lightweight and ability to meet strength, energy absorption, and thermal resistance requirements. Therefore, they are useful in the automotive, aerospace, ...

Abstract: In response to the problem of deformation caused by surrounding construction disturbances in existing shield tunnels in soft soil areas, lateral horizontal grouting is often used. Based on an independently designed and ...

Abstract: Evaporative losses from the surface of barren waste rock piles in arid environments occur as a result of water vapor diffusion. Water vapor diffusion is accompanied by adsorption of water vapor. A review of the literature ...
