Impacts of Different Types of Owner-Contractor Conflict on Cost Performance in Construction Projects
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Interactionism posits that all social structures have inherent conflicts within them that can yield positive or negative effects on organizational performance. Based on this theory, three essential types of conflict between ...
Evaluation of Effectiveness of Cleaning on In Situ Permeability Restoration of Open-Graded Friction Course
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The open-graded friction course (OGFC) with a high air void has been used due to its provided benefits; however, the clogging issue becomes a challenge for in-service pavement with an OGFC overlay. This study relied on an ...
Experimental and Numerical Simulation Study on the Influence of Fracture Distribution on Gas Channeling in Ultralow-Permeability Reservoirs
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Fracture development in ultralow-permeability reservoirs results in gas channeling and lower oil recovery during CO2 flooding. In this study, the physical properties of a light oil-CO2 system were experimented, the physical ...
Impact of Inherent Factors on the Radiolytic Degradation of Biorefractory Contaminants
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Experiments were carried out to gain insight into the effect of inherent factors on the radiolytic degradation of two biorefractory contaminants, Acid Orange 7 (AO7) and nitrobenzene (NB). The effects of irradiation dose rate
Mechanical Sensitivity Analysis of BFRP Reinforced CRCP under the Void below Concrete Slab Condition
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposes a finite element model to simulate traffic loads on continuously reinforced concrete pavement (CRCP) by using basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars, considering the void below the concrete slab ...
Effect of Scale-Aware Planetary Boundary Layer Schemes on Tropical Cyclone Intensification and Structural Changes in the Gray Zone
