Bond-Slip Performance between High-Strength Steel Wire Rope Meshes and Engineered Cementitious Composites
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Engineered cementitious composites (ECC) are distinguished by ultrahigh ductility and multiple cracking. High-strength stainless steel wire rope (HSSSWR) meshes have been successfully applied to strengthening existing ...
Non-Fourier Heat Conduction and Thermal-Stress Analysis of a Spherical Ice Particle Subjected to Thermal Shock in PEM Fuel Cell at Quick Cold Start-Up
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Quick start at low temperature is one of the key bottleneck technologies that restrict the large-scale commercialization of proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell vehicles. Ice and devices in battery systems based on ...
Study on Flame Retardant Performance of Modified Asphalt Based on Functional Groups and Thermogravimetric Analysis
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In order to clarify the flame retardant mechanism and microscopic performance of modified asphalt, a new inorganic flame retardant was prepared using three flame retardants, and antimony trioxide and decabromodiphenyl oxide ...
Structural Behavior and Load Distribution Factor of a T-Girder Bridge with Various Truss Diaphragms
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A diaphragm is an essential component of a T-girder bridge. Evaluating the influence of various truss diaphragms (TDs) on the structural behavior and load distribution factor of T-girder bridges assists in bridge design ...
Machine Learning–Based Systems for Early Warning of Rainfall-Induced Landslide
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Landslide disasters have inflicted incalculable losses on China’s national economy, as well as on lives and property. Notably, 90% of landslide disasters are directly induced by rainfall or have indirect associations with ...
Longwall Mining–Induced Damage and Fractures: Field Measurements and Simulation Using FDM and DEM Coupled Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Comprehensive tests were conducted on a longwall face in China to study mining-induced strata movement and fractures. The first and periodic weightings of the main roof were both captured by microseismic (MS) monitoring ...
Analysis of Structural Types and Mechanical Performance of Steel–Concrete Connections without Cells
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Steel–concrete connections, as key components of hybrid bridges, present a complex structural type and mechanical behavior. On the basis of the steel–concrete connections in the Lichuan Bridge, a numerical analysis was ...
Steel-Plate Composite Walls: Local Buckling and Design for Axial Compression
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper focuses on local buckling and axial compressive behavior of steel-plate composite (SC) walls. SC walls are comprised of a concrete wall sandwiched between two steel faceplates on the surfaces. The steel faceplates ...
Modeling Lane-Choice Behavior to Optimize Pricing Strategy for HOT Lanes: A Support Vector Regression Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes can better utilize road resources by allowing low-occupancy vehicle (LOV) drivers to pay a toll and use high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. In such a system, the toll price plays a key role ...
Effect of Artificial Corrosion on the Postyielding Performance of Steel Reinforcement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of corrosion on the postyielding performance of steel reinforcement. Artificial corrosion was induced to the steel reinforcement based on mechanical methods. Different corrosion ...
