Abstract: The Loess Plateau is susceptible to geological disasters, many of which are related to the loess internal hydraulic erosion. This erosion process can alter the loess microstructure and influence multiscale mechanical ...

Abstract: This paper presents a Bayesian inference-based dynamic linear model (DLM) with switching based on three-phase traffic flow theory to predict online short-term travel time with plate recognition data. The proposed method ...

Abstract: Wear is one of the major causes that affect the performance and reliability of tribo-systems. To mitigate its adverse effects, it is necessary to monitor the wear progress so that preventive maintenance can be timely ...

Abstract: Rotation welding is a novel technique to produce structurally efficient wood joints without any synthetic adhesives, in which wooden dowels are inserted into timber members by high-speed rotation to form the bonding interface ...
