Abstract: Precipitation variability over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) depends largely on the atmospheric circulation pattern associated with remote oceanic forcing, while the contribution of sea surface temperature anomalies (SSTAs) in ...

Abstract: Environmental issues are often neglected in previous studies on site layout evaluation problems. To address this research gap, a comprehensive evaluation model is developed to evaluate construction site layout planning in ...

Abstract: The present research is intended to address dynamic construction-process simulation methods, with a focus on how to effectively model resource transit among various activity locations in the site system. Following a review ...

Abstract: Based on the critical plane approach, the drawbacks of the Wang–Brown (WB) model are analyzed. It is discovered that the normal strain excursion in the WB model cannot account for the additional ...

Abstract: To investigate hydraulic features of the flooding flow on a staircase with a rest platform, experiments were conducted on a 1:2-scale physical model of a staircase with a middle rest platform between two stair segments. ...

Abstract: This study investigates the acoustic emission (AE) and physicomechanical properties of concrete under three sulfate attack conditions: continuous immersion, wetting–drying cycles, and cyclic loading coupled with wetting–drying ...
