Patterns of Urban Sprawl from a Global Perspective
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Urban sprawl has become a common phenomenon due to rapid global population growth. An understanding of the inherent characteristics and a quantification of the extent of urban sprawl are sorely lacking but urgently required. ...
Efficient Analysis of HALE Aircraft Structure for Static Aeroelastic Behavior
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Blast Response and Damage Mechanism of Prefabricated Segmental RC Bridge Piers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Public transportation is vulnerable to terrorist attacks due to its accessibility, especially bridges in the highway and urban systems under blast loading. Prefabricated segmental reinforced concrete (PSRC) piers are one ...
Model Verification and Validation of a Cable-Stayed Bridge: Interval-Based Uncertainty Quantification of the Model Parameters
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In simulating engineering structures, the uncertainty quantification and propagation (UQ&P) of model parameters is of paramount importance for model verification and validation (V&V), the fidelity of which has been ...
Changes in Tropical Cyclone–Induced Extreme Hourly Precipitation over China during 1975–2018
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study analyzes the spatiotemporal distributions and climate trends of tropical cyclone (TC)-induced extreme hourly precipitation (EXHP) in the warm season (May–September) during 1975–2018 over China and the involved ...
Modeling the Resilience Performance of Houston’s Wastewater Treatment Plant under Wet Weather Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With increasing severity of wet weather events due to a changing climate, many municipal wastewater treatment plants are grappling with challenges in maintaining effective flow and effluent management. Compounded by aging ...
Lane-Level Short-Term Freeway Traffic Volume Prediction Based on Graph Convolutional Recurrent Network
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The postpandemic period has seen a significant increase in traffic volume on freeways, necessitating the implementation of advanced traffic management systems, such as lane-level freeway tolling systems, to predict traffic ...
Experimental Study on Behavior and Failure Mode of PSRC Bridge Pier under Close-In Blast Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Precast segmental reinforced concrete (PSRC) bridge piers have been widely used in bridges. Many experimental and numerical studies have been conducted to investigate the seismic and impact behavior of PSRC piers, but very ...
Flowability of Saturated Sands under Cyclic Loading and the Viscous Fluid Flow Failure Criterion for Liquefaction Triggering
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Dynamically loaded soils can exhibit large-deformation flow liquefaction or limited-deformation cyclic mobility mechanisms, depending on the initial state of the soil. Undrained cyclic triaxial tests were performed on ...
Climatological Drought Analyses and Projection Using SPI and PDSI: Case Study of the Arkansas Red River Basin
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper examines past drought and assesses future drought scenarios for the Arkansas Red River Basin using two common drought indexes, the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) and Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI). ...
