Influence of Confucianism and Taoism on Construction Dispute Handling Behaviors in China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the increase in foreign investments in the Chinese capital market and the rising number of dispute between the Chinese partners with the foreign counterparts, it is of practical and academic value to understand the ...
MacCormack-TVD Finite Difference Solution for Dam Break Hydraulics over Erodible Sediment Beds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Coupled shallow water equations integrated with sediment transport and morphological evolution are presented in this paper. The momentum exchange terms that originated from the interaction between flow and sediment, which ...
Erratum for “MacCormack-TVD Finite Difference Solution for Dam Break Hydraulics over Erodible Sediment Beds” by Chaojun Ouyang, Siming He, and Qiang Xu
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
A Modified Endurance Time Analysis Algorithm to Correct Duration Effects for a Concrete Gravity Dam
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Durations are defined as an essential component of the three primary characteristics of strong earthquakes, which exhibit a remarkable influence on the damage characteristics of a concrete dam body. However, when considering ...
Detached Eddy Simulation of the Unsteady Flow and Film Cooling Characteristics of an Endwall With an Interrupted Slot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flows close to a high-pressure turbine endwall are highly three-dimensional and unsteady. These flows increase the aerodynamic loss and augment the heat transfer. In this paper, the unsteady flows and film cooling ...
A Simplified 3D Theoretical Model for Calculating the Surface Settlement Induced by Tunnel Undercrossing Excavation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: When calculating the surface settlement caused by tunnel excavation, the conventional stochastic medium theory is complicated by integration. Particularly for tunnel undercrossing excavation, it shows large errors in ...
Seismic Performance Analysis of Gravity Dam System under Arbitrary Oblique Incidence of Near-Fault SV Ground Motions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study aims to propose a seismic performance analysis framework based on the oblique incidence theory, estimate a normalized damage response (RDVR) through seismic parameters and incident angles, and explore the variation ...
