Anisotropy of a Tensorial Bishop’s Coefficient for Wetted Granular Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this research is to use grain-scale numerical simulations to analyze the evolution of stress anisotropy exhibited in wetted granular matter. Multiphysical particulate simulations of unsaturated granular ...
Disaster Recovery System Model with E-Government Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: We present a robust disaster recovery system model according to the requests of disaster recovery talent of a key e-government project of China. The model strengthens the safe communication ability and guarantees the secure ...
Evolution of Flow Fields in a Developing Local Scour Hole Formed by a Submerged Wall Jet
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study investigates the flow in an evolving scour hole downstream of a sluice gate with an apron using particle image velocimetry (PIV). The results clearly depict the sequential appearance of four rollers (large ...
Auditing Construction Cost from an In-Process Perspective Based on a Bayesian Predictive Model
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The traditional audit process in construction cost control usually occurs passively at the end of a project life cycle. This calls for a predictive model that provides a framework assembling essential information and ...
Influence of the Anatomical Structure on the Hemodynamics of Iliac Vein Stenosis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Few reports study the effects of the anatomical structure of the iliac vein on hemodynamics and the methods to reduce and delay in-stent thrombosis. The anatomical structure of iliac vein stenosis was used to establish ...
Interaction between Strong Sound Waves and Cloud Droplets: Theoretical Analysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
