Abstract: Foamed concrete has been considered a low-strength cementitious material due to its flaky and porous structure. The CO2 foaming agents are thought to enhance the mechanical properties of foamed concrete, but the exact ...

Abstract: For an overland plane with rainfall as the lateral inflow, the flow regime is complicated by the varying flow depth and velocity along the plane. The flow regime becomes variable. For a plane that is sufficiently long, ...

Abstract: A method to convert a known unit hydrograph to unit hydrographs of different durations, as an alternative to the S-Hydrograph method, is introduced. The method—called the Complementary Hydrograph method—involves a process ...

Abstract: By applying the kinematic wave method to the analysis of overland flow through a rectangular plane, a functional relationship between the critical rainfall duration associated with the maximum peak discharge, and the ...

Abstract: AbstractCool roofs and green roofs are two popular methods to mitigate the urban heat island and improve urban climates. The effectiveness of different urban heat island mitigation strategies in the summer of 2013 in the ...

Abstract: To alleviate the sharp decline in traffic efficiency caused by the reduced number of lanes or the presence of obstacles and reduce the risk of accidents due to frequent lane changes or acceleration and deceleration in an ...

Abstract: Based on the three-fork–shaped river terrain of the Grand Canyon, a design scheme of a three-fork–shaped single main cable pedestrian landscape glass suspension bridge is proposed. The three-fork–shaped single main cable ...
