Optimizing Vehicle and Pedestrian Trade-Off Using Signal Timing in Intersections with Center Transit Lanes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The construction of exclusive bus lanes is a strategy for giving priority to buses and improving the efficiency of the urban transportation system, and for that purpose, center transit lanes are an important type of transit ...
Lateral Earth Pressure Considering the Displacement of a Rigid Retaining Wall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, an analytical model is proposed to calculate earth pressure considering the displacement of a rigid wall, and this model is developed based on the hyperbolic soil stress-strain relationship. By introducing ...
Early Warning of Abrupt Displacement Change at the Yemaomian Landslide of the Three Gorge Region, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Like most natural systems, landslides also have critical points at which a great change in displacement occurs. The displacement may recover increasingly slowly from small perturbations when landslides approach an abrupt ...
Chebyshev Collocation Spectral Method for Three-Dimensional Transient Coupled Radiative–Conductive Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A Chebyshev collocation spectral method (CSM) is presented to solve transient coupled radiative and conductive heat transfer in three-dimensional absorbing, emitting, and scattering medium in ...
Integrated Urban Land-Use Zoning and Associated Spatial Development: Case Study in Shenzhen, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As an effective approach to sustainable urban planning, integrated urban land-use zoning can contribute to fully understanding the integrated characteristics of urban land-use system, indicating the trend and possibility ...
Local Stability of Laser-Welded Stainless-Steel T-Section Stub Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents experimental and numerical studies on the local stability and compression resistances of laser-welded stainless-steel T-section stub columns. A testing program was first conducted, including material ...
