Universal Feedback Controllers and Inverse Optimality for Nonlinear Stochastic Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we develop a constructive finite time stabilizing feedback control law for stochastic dynamical systems driven by Wiener processes based on the existence of a stochastic control Lyapunov function. In addition, ...
Finite Layer Formulations for Land Subsidence due to Groundwater Withdrawal
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A finite-layer method (FLM) based on consolidation theory is presented for land subsidence due to groundwater withdrawal. The groundwater flow in aquifer systems and the displacement within soil skeletons are approximated ...
Acceleration and Deceleration Calibration of Operating Speed Prediction Models for Two-Lane Mountain Highways
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, to calibrate the acceleration/deceleration rates in operating speed prediction models, driving tests were performed on two-lane mountain highways using passenger cars, and continuous longitudinal acceleration ...

Robust Random Forest Model for Faulting Prediction in Jointed Concrete Pavement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple but robust faulting prediction model is essential for jointed concrete pavement design and timely maintenance and rehabilitation activities placement. This study utilized machine learning algorithms, including ...
Effect of Glutaraldehyde as a Biocide against the Microbiologically Influenced Corrosion of X80 Steel Pipeline
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) is a common phenomenon in oil and gas industries. Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) often leads to MIC and oilfield acidification. Glutaraldehyde is a highly effective biocide, ...
Comprehensive Evaluation of Microscopic Movability and Macroscopic Productivity of Continental Shale Reservoir
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Continental shale oil is diversified, differentiated, and complex. It has disadvantages such as low production and inferior development benefits. Given this, the movability and productivity of shale oil were proposed in ...
