Abstract: Generally, adhesive materials can be cured in a short time under high curing temperature. High curing temperature usually leads to an increase in cross-link density and a homologous increase ...

Abstract: Both static and dynamic tests were carried out on an old reinforced concrete bridge prior to its demolition. The purpose of the static test was to calibrate the mathematical model used in the structural analysis. By comparing ...

Abstract: A numerical analysis has been conducted to evaluate the effect of confining pressure on the damage evolution and the fracture process of brittle rock materials by using the rock failure process analysis code

Abstract: The initiation, development, and coalescence of cracks when a rock specimen is loaded have been studied by various researchers. The current consensus is that such complex process is however not yet fully understood. In the ...

Abstract: Based on genetic algorithm and genetic programming, a new evolutionary algorithm is developed to evolve mathematical models for predicting the behavior of complex systems. The input variables of the models are the property ...
