Microphysical and Radiative Effects of Ice Clouds on Tropical Equilibrium States: A Two-Dimensional Cloud-Resolving Modeling Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The microphysical and radiative effects of ice clouds on tropical equilibrium states are investigated based on three two-dimensional cloud-resolving simulations imposed by zero vertical velocity and time-invariant zonal ...
Stress Response Behaviors of Steel Wires at the Anchorage Part of Bridge Cables under Tension and Bending Coupling Loads
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The stress response behaviors of steel wires at the anchorage part of bridge cables under tension and bending coupling loads play a predominant role in determining their fatigue life and failure modes. The inherent complexity ...
Case Study: Influence of Morphological Changes on Flooding in Jingjiang River
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The middle reach of the Yangtze River, customarily called the Jingjiang River, together with its diversion channels and Dongting Lake, form a large complicated drainage system. In the last five decades, significant ...
Optimization of Deceleration Markings of Visual Illusion in a Highway Tunnel
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to improve the deceleration effect in the highway tunnel, the design method of visual information with high and low frequency combined is proposed. Using 3ds Max software design driving video and illusion combination ...
Detecting Stress Changes and Damage in Full-Size Concrete T-Beam and Slab with Ultrasonic Coda Waves
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This article describes the use of coda wave measurements in a network of transducers for detecting stress changes and damage in large concrete structures. The applicability of the presented method is examined by performing ...
