RISNational Spatial Strategic Plan of England
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Britain is one of the few European Union member states that does not produce and maintain a strategic spatial plan at the national tier. This study concentrates on the concepts of national spatial strategic plan in England ...

Two 4D Models Effective in Reducing False Alarms for Struck-by-Equipment Hazard Prevention
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Over the past decade, several smart and automated systems have been developed to address the issue of struck-by hazards in construction—that is, workers on foot struck by equipment or equipment struck by equipment. False ...
Joint Probability Study of Destructive Factors Related to the “Triad” Phenomenon during Typhoon Events in the Coastal Regions: Taking Jiangsu Province as an Example
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Strong winds (W), storm tides (Z), and heavy rains (R) are the main destructive factors related to typhoons that affect the coastal regions of Jiangsu, where the “triad” phenomenon is obvious. Statistical results from 1960 ...
Anisotropic and Noncoaxial Behavior of Soft Marine Clay under Stress Path Considering the Variation of Principal Stress Direction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The influence of the variation in the principal stress direction on the anisotropic and noncoaxial behavior was investigated through several hollow cylinder apparatus (HCA) tests that were performed on reconstituted soft ...
Low False Alarm Rate Model for Unsafe-Proximity Detection in Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The research reported in this paper proposes and develops an unsafe-proximity detection model focused on decreasing false alarms. By considering three types of entity attributes [i.e., (1) position, (2) heading/moving ...
Numerical Study on the Optimized Control of CRACs in a Data Center Based on a Fast Temperature-Predicting Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Energy consumption in data centers is growing rapidly due to their increasing numbers, scales, and densities. Coordinated operation of the information devices and cooling system is an effective way to lower the energy cost ...
Mobility Criteria of Planar Single-Loop N-Bar Chains With Prismatic Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the extension of the N-bar rotatability laws to N-bar chains containing prismatic joints. The extension is based on the principle that a prismatic joint may be regarded as ...
Precise Solution to 3D Coupled Thermohydromechanical Problems of Layered Transversely Isotropic Saturated Porous Media
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a precise solution to coupled thermohydromechanical problems of layered, transversely isotropic, saturated, porous media with a heat source or a temperature increment with the aid of integral transform ...
Automated Crack Detection With Image Analysis for the Blades of Steam Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Blades are a critical part of steam turbines. Since they usually work under extremely harsh conditions, it is necessary to detect cracks that are generated during operation in time and prevent them from developing into ...
