The Roles of Westward-Propagating Waves and the QBO in Limiting MJO Propagation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A recent study categorized the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) during boreal winter season into four types called stand, jump, slow, and fast MJO. This study focuses on the stand and jump MJO. Based on whether their ...
Experimental Study on Soil Temperature and Deformation during an Artificial Ground-Freezing Process Considering Interface Differences
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Artificial ground freezing (AGF) is prevalently employed in the construction of tunnel connecting passages. The soil heat transfer process plays a pivotal role in temperature alterations during freezing, subsequently ...
Shared Autonomous Vehicle Modeling Considering System Optimization and Simulation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper optimizes the assignment of shared automated vehicles under users’ uncertain departure times. Automated vehicles can drive themselves, so no staff are needed to relocate vehicles in the one-way carsharing system. ...
Study on the Performance of Epoxy Asphalt with Different Matrix Asphalt Contents
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Epoxy asphalt, as a new pavement material, is receiving more and more attention. Exploring the influence of matrix asphalt contents on epoxy asphalt can not only maximize the performance of epoxy asphalt but also provide ...
Multistage Model of Hurricane Evacuation Decision: Empirical Study of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Exploring Optimal Signal Plans for Isolated Signalized Intersections with Central Pedestrian Refuges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper addresses the global optimal signal plan of a fixed time control for an isolated signalized intersection with central pedestrian refuges considering both vehicle delays and pedestrian delays. A signal phase plan, ...
Inexact Chance-Constrained Linear Programming Model for Optimal Water Pollution Management at the Watershed Scale
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An inexact chance-constrained linear programming (ICCLP) model for optimal water pollution management at the watershed scale was developed. We selected the net expenditures of the alternative strategies, including initial ...
Preparation and Performance of Graphene Nanoplatelets-Modified Epoxy Asphalt
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Graphene has been proven to have a wide range of applications in transportation intelligence and green infrastructure development. In view of a series of distresses in the use of epoxy asphalt, we used graphene nanoplatelets ...
Electrical and Thermal Properties of Asphalt Pavements Utilizing Electrically Conductive Geogrids for Snow and Ice Melting
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Constructing electrically heated asphalt (EHA) pavements utilizing electrically conductive asphalt mixtures or installing electric pipes, cables, and wires for snow and ice melting has been reported widely. This study ...
