Pseudostatic Behavior of Precast Piers with Composite Pier–Pile Cap Connections: Experimental Investigation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A novel composite connection, the steel–concrete composite connection with notched perfobond connectors (NPCs), is proposed for bridge pier–pile cap joint in this paper. In the steel–concrete composite connection with NPCs ...
Simulation-Based Quantitative Evaluation Method for Water–Water Transshipment Coal Terminals
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Determining how to quantitatively analyze and evaluate a terminal layout is important for terminal design and construction organizations. In this study, a simulation-based quantitative analysis and an evaluation method ...
Identification of Aerodynamic Derivatives of a Box-Girder Bridge Deck with Twin Active Flaps Using CFD Simulations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A practical identification method based on single-degree-of-freedom (SDOF) forced vibration was proposed and its application to obtain 16 aerodynamic derivatives of a box-girder bridge deck with twin active flaps (termed ...
Surrogate Modeling of Multistage Assembly Processes Using Integrated Emulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For the design and optimization of multistage assembly processes, a computationally cheap mathematical model that links design parameters with the final product dimensional quality is highly ...
Stochastic Response of an Inclined Shallow Cable with Linear Viscous Dampers under Stochastic Excitation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Considering the coupling between the in-plane and out-of-plane vibration, the stochastic response of an inclined shallow cable with linear viscous dampers subjected to Gaussian white noise excitation is investigated in ...
Experimental Investigation of the Engineering Properties of Coarse Grain Embankment Fill Material with Accumulative Salt Effect by Adding Onsite Brine Groundwater
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The purpose of this research is to study the accumulative effect of repetitively adding groundwater on the engineering properties of coarse grain salinized embankment fill material. Large-scale compression and engineering ...
Intraseasonal Variability of Cross-Slope Flow in the Northern South China Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Cross-slope flow plays an important role in the exchange of material, heat, and momentum between the continental shelf and the open sea. In the northern South China Sea (SCS), long-period observations confirm that there ...
Effects of Nonuniform Crosswinds in Valleys on Dynamic Responses of High-Speed Trains and Long-Span Suspension Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study examined the influence of nonuniform wind fields in valleys on the dynamic responses of high-speed trains and long-span bridges. The wind field in a valley is considerably different from a theoretical uniform ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigation on the Transient Cavitating Flows in a Mixed Flow Pump With Different Number of Blades at Startup
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to experimentally and numerically investigate the transient cavitation flow during the startup process of mixed flow pump with emphasis on studying the influence of blade numbers. The transient ...
