RISDeformation and Pore-Water Pressure Responses of Elastic Viscoplastic Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The deformation and pore-water pressure responses of clayey soils are of great interest to civil engineers. In this paper, displacements and pore-water pressures of a clay subjected to the loading of a strip footing are ...
Displacement of Natural Ventilation in an Enclosure With a Convective/Radiative Heat Source and Nonadiabatic Envelopes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the real case of naturally ventilated space with a convective/radiative heat source and nonadiabatic envelopes. The real envelopes and heat source are introduced into a simple ...
Tensile Creep and Unloading Creep Recovery Testing of Dam Concrete with Fly Ash
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Gradual creep recovery manifests when a concrete specimen that has been subjected to a sustained stress is unloaded. Although creep and creep recovery are important properties of concrete, there is little research on the ...
Evaluation of Structural Strength and Parameters of Collapsible Loess
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Loess is one of the problematic soils with a worldwide distribution for its collapsibility. To study structural strength and parameters of collapsible loess, a number of double-oedometer tests on intact and remolded loess ...
Tensile Creep and Unloading Creep Recovery Testing of Dam Concrete with Fly Ash
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Gradual creep recovery manifests when a concrete specimen that has been subjected to a sustained stress is unloaded. Although creep and creep recovery are important properties of concrete, there is little research on the ...
A Zonal Model for Large Enclosures With Combined Stratification Cooling and Natural Ventilation: Part 1—Model Generation and its Procedure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes a combined system of stratificated air conditioning and natural ventilation for large enclosures, which uses stratificated air conditioning to cool the occupied part of a ...
Elastic Anisotropic Viscoplastic Modeling of the Strain-Rate-Dependent Stress–Strain Behavior of K0 -Consolidated Natural Marine Clays in Triaxial Shear Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a new three-dimensional (3D) anisotropic elastic viscoplastic (EVP) model for the time-dependent stress–strain behavior of
Vertical Variability of the Raindrop Size Distribution in Typhoons Observed at the Shenzhen 356-m Meteorological Tower
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Raindrop size distribution (DSD) characteristics at various altitudes in two landfalling typhoons in 2017 (Hato and Pakhar) were investigated by using laser optical disdrometers mounted at four altitudes (10 m, 40 m, 160 ...
New Gradation Equation and Applicability for Particle-Size Distributions of Various Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new gradation equation that can describe the particle-size distribution curves of soils with continuous gradation is presented. The results obtained for a large amount of test data from soil gradations prove that the ...
Dilatancy Equation for Rockfill Materials under Three-Dimensional Stress Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The intermediate principal stress ratio b has a significant influence on the dilatancy behaviors of rockfill materials. The dilatancy equation is defined as a function of the dilatancy dg and the stress ratio η. To investigate ...
