Abstract: In this paper, a new shape optimization approach, feature-based optimization of beam structures, is proposed to provide an efficient optimization solution of beam components in complex mechanical ...

Abstract: A new visual method that is calibration-free augmented reality based on affine representation is formulated for urban planning, and the problems in the process of algorithm application, such as the location of virtual ...

Abstract: Welded steel connections have been extensively used in practical engineering for the superiority of welding. However, many welded structures under complex disaster conditions have exhibited significant low-cycle fatigue ...

Abstract: AbstractThe central Amazon forest is projected to experience larger interannual precipitation variability, with uncertain impacts on terrestrial hydrologic fluxes. How surface runoff, groundwater, and evapotranspiration ...
