Abstract: Democratized mechanical testing offers a promising solution for enabling the widespread adoption of recycled and renewably sourced feedstocks. Locally sourced, sustainable materials often exhibit variable mechanical ...

Abstract: etailed parameter sensitivity, model validation, and regional calibration of the Hybrid-Maize crop model were undertaken for the purpose of regional agroclimatic assessments. The model was run at both field scale and county ...

Abstract: Field investigations and laboratory tests were performed to determine the cause of engineering distress due to the swelling of lime-stabilized and phosphogypsum-stabilized soil and subsequent cracks on a roadway in China. ...

Abstract: Error motion of an ultraprecision axis of rotation has great influences on form error of machined parts. This paper gives a complete error analysis for the measurement procedure including nonlinearity error of capacitive ...

Abstract: new, high-resolution (4 km), gridded land surface dataset produced with the Land Information System (LIS) is introduced, and the first set of synthesis of key hydroclimatic variables is reported. The dataset is produced ...

Abstract: Based upon a novel control-based dynamic modeling framework, this paper proposes two new indicators, i.e., resilience by mitigation and resilience by recovery, for the resilience analysis of interdependent critical ...
