Abstract: This paper analyzes the motorcycle usage and policies in Huizhou, China. Two sets of survey data were used in the study: one is Daily Trip Survey of Huizhou that was taken in 2004, and the other one is Resident Travel ...

Abstract: Free vibration of single- and double-layered graphene sheets is investigated by employing nonlocal continuum theory and molecular dynamics simulations. Results show that the classical elastic model ...

Abstract: The potential of single-walled carbon nanotubes as nanosensors in detection of noble gases via a vibration analysis is investigated using molecular dynamics simulations. An index based on frequency ...

Abstract: A hybrid continuum mechanics and molecular mechanics model is developed in this paper to predict the critical strain, stress, and buckling load of the inelastic buckling of carbon nanotubes. ...

Abstract: The equation of free transverse vibration of beams with two sections of partially distributed mass is derived and its exact solution has been obtained. Experimental data for a cantilever beam ...

Abstract: The conventional curing methods for cement concrete pavement have been frequently criticized for their high levels of water consumption, high labor intensity, high cost, nonuniform curing quality, and other problems. In ...

Abstract: The discovery of buckling instability and vibration of polyethylene (PE)/carbon nanotube (CNT) matrices is reported by molecular mechanics simulations. The buckling strains and the resonance ...

Abstract: Based on the concept of an energy pump, water transportation in a carbon nanotube (CNT) is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The influences of CNT pretwist angle, water mass, environmental ...

Abstract: To investigate the mechanism and manifestation of ballast spoilage, this study introduces a novel approach using a repeated large-scale direct shear test (involving multiple large-scale direct shear tests on the same batch ...
