Mechanism of Grain and Twin Nanoboundaries Making Strength and Wear Resistance Different in CoCrFeNiCu: A Molecular Dynamics Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the indenter scratches the single-crystal, polycrystalline and polycrystalline-twin structures CoCrFeNiCu, these characteristics in various crystal nanostructures were found. Single-crystal structure CoCrFeNiCu has ...
Cracking Performance of an Operational Tunnel Lining Due to Local Construction Defects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Local defects, such as surround cavities and insufficient thickness of the tunnel lining due to imperfect construction, will lead to local discontinuity in the ground–lining interaction. This study investigated the mechanical ...
Robust Calibration of Shaft and Base Resistance Factors for Piles Based on Multiobjective Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Resistance factors are used to account for the uncertainties associated with pile resistance in load and resistance factor design (LRFD). Current design codes and most previous studies recommend a single resistance factor ...
