Deep Convolutional Neural Network-Based Method for Strength Parameter Prediction of Jointed Rock Mass Using Drilling Logging Data
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Field evaluation of the strength properties of jointed rock masses is a challenging task in geotechnical engineering. Typically, laboratory tests using small jointed specimens have difficulty determining the strength ...
Stability Prediction for Real-Time Hybrid Simulation with Different Physical and Numerical Substructure Discretization Using Asynchronous Multirate Simulation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Real-time hybrid simulation (RTHS) is an emerging high-efficiency and low-cost structural test method. Stability analysis is a very important part of RTHS to ensure the stability of the experimental system. Currently, there ...
Large Eddy Simulation of Transitional Boundary Layers at High Free-Stream Turbulence Intensity and Implications for RANS Modeling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Large-eddy simulations of transitional flows over a flat plate have been performed for different sets of free-stream-turbulence conditions. Interest focuses, in particular, on the unsteady processes ...
Performance Characterizations of Vulcanized <i>Eucommia Ulmoides</i> Gum-Modified
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To understand the effects of vulcanized Eucommia ulmoides gum (VEUG) on bituminous properties from a new angle, different thermal analysis methods were utilized to characterize the properties of VEUG-modified bitumen. Test ...
Evaluation of Aggregate Dispersion Uniformity of Reclaimed Asphalt Mixtures Using DIP Technique
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In view of environmental concerns and rising price in pavement materials, the use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) in asphalt mixtures has gained in popularity recently. However, the aggregate dispersion uniformity of ...
Seismic Performance of Precast Segmental Concrete-Filled Steel-Tube Bridge Columns with Internal and External Energy Dissipaters
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The prefabricated segmental column using posttensioning technology has become an ideal candidate for rapid and environmentally friendly construction. To avoid damage to the segment joint during a seismic event and enhance ...
Elastoplastic Coupling Solution of Circular Openings in Strain-Softening Rock Mass Considering Pressure-Dependent Effect
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rock-like materials generally manifest both strain-softening and pressure-dependent effects. The critical plastic strain corresponding to the residual state also increases with the confining pressure. In this case, all of ...
Unraveling the Progressive Failure Behaviors and Mechanisms of the Slope with a Local Dynamic Method Based on the Double Strength Reduction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The cohesion c and the internal friction angle φ are mobilized at different reduction proportions and attenuation rates when a slope is in progressive failure, which is a dynamic development process. For this reason, an ...
A Novel Generalized Predictive Control Strategy With Improved Time Domain Performance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Due to the ability of handling the coupling property of multivariable control system, generalized predictive control (GPC) has been widely employed in process industry. However, the existing GPC method normally utilizes ...
Investigation of Recycled Asphalt Pavement Materials Treated by Refined Crushing and Screening Process: Comparison with Conventional Methods
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Using recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) materials in the pavement industry is a hot issue now, which can reduce carbon emissions significantly. The agglomeration and variability of the RAP materials treated by a conventional ...
