RISForce-Chain Superposition Method for Interface Force Conditions on the Cross Section of Parallel Steel Wire Strands
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The interface force condition on the cross section of parallel steel wire strands is an important basis for studying the longitudinal friction and slip behavior of wires. In this study, force-chain superposition was proposed ...
Experimental Study of a Forced Convection Solar Collector/Regenerator for Open-Cycle Absorption Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study of the performance of a forced convection glazed solar collector/regenerator (C/R) operated under the meteorological conditions of Kaohsiung, Taiwan. The ...
Repair of Fire-Exposed Preloaded Rectangular Concrete Columns by Postcompressed Steel Plates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes an experimental study of axially loaded, fire-exposed, rectangular RC columns repaired with postcompressed steel plates. Seven RC columns with identical section dimensions and reinforcement details ...
Study of the Shrinkage and Freeze–Thaw Performance of Cement-Stabilized Macadam Mixtures Based on Rotary Compaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, static compaction and gyratory compaction were used to prepare cement-stabilized macadam (CSM) specimens, and their drying shrinkage and freeze–thaw resistance were investigated. The effects of gradation ...
Theoretical and Experimental Studies of the Antislip Capacity between Cable and Saddle Equipped with Horizontal Friction Plates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For multispan suspension bridges, the slip between the main cable and middle saddle is a critical problem. It is therefore essential to find efficient antislip schemes and develop the corresponding evaluation method. In ...
Fluctuating Frequency of Live Bed Scour Depth around Submerged Weirs at Equilibrium Stages
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Previous studies have primarily focused on the estimation of equilibrium scour depths around weirs, while overlooking the details of the temporal evolution of the live bed scour process of submerged weirs at the equilibrium ...
Study of the Improved Behavior of Portland Cement Mortar Based on Adsorption and Deposition of Microbial Cement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Microbial cement (MC) can generate biocalcium carbonate on the surface of mortar in the liquid environment, which shows potential advantages to enhance the surface property of prefabricated components. This paper is aimed ...
Bond Behavior between Reinforcing Steel and Recycled Coarse Aggregate Concrete after Carbonation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: There is a noticeable research gap concerning the durability of recycled concrete, a pivotal resource for fostering urban sustainable development. This paper presents the results of an investigation into the bonding ...
Temporal Evolution of Clear-Water Scour Depth at Submerged Weirs
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Equilibrium clear-water scour depths predicted by existing equations based on the peak flow rate of a flood hydrograph can be overly conservative for submerged weirs in mild-slope sandy rivers, because the equilibrium ...
Simulation of Mode-Switching Methods’ Effect on Mass Transfer in a Unitized Regenerative Fuel Cell
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Unitized regenerative fuel cells are unique devices that combine the functions of fuel cells and water electrolysis in one system. The internal mass-transport mechanisms present in a unitized regenerative fuel cell are ...
