RISRobustness Assessment of Exterior Precast Concrete Frames under Column Removal Scenarios
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes an experimental investigation on the resistance and failure mode of four precast concrete frames. Each frame comprised a middle beam-column joint, a double-span beam, and two side columns. Two parameters, ...
Progressive Collapse Resistance of Precast Concrete Frames with Discontinuous Reinforcement in the Joint
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Boundary conditions of precast concrete frames play a crucial role in their progressive collapse resistance under middle column removal scenarios. Interior and exterior frames behave differently as a result of different ...
BME Spatiotemporal Estimation of Annual Precipitation and Detection of Drought Hazard Clusters Using Space–Time Scan Statistics in the Yun-Gui-Guang Region, Mainland China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDrought disasters cause great economic losses in China every year, especially in its southwest, and they have had a major influence on economic development, lives, and property. In this study, precipitation and ...
Road Surface State Recognition Based on Semantic Segmentation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In extreme bad weather conditions, vehicles can promptly adjust the speed and distance according to the road information, which can effectively reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Road type and the road adhesion ...
Numerical Study on the Effect of Various Working Fluids on the Performance of Loop Heat Pipes Based on Two-Dimensional Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method is often used to study heat and mass transfer mechanisms in loop heat pipes (LHPs). However, few numerical studies have been conducted on the entire loop heat pipe system. In ...
