RISEffects of Accelerated Seawater Corrosion on Hollow-Core FRP-Concrete-Steel Columns under Sustained Axial Load
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The hollow-core fiber-reinforced polymer-concrete-steel (HC-FCS) column is a relatively new structural system consisting of an outer fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tube, an inner steel tube, and a concrete shell encased ...
Turbulent Flow in the Entry Region of a Rough Pipe
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The general characteristics of mean turbulent flow in the entry region of a rough pipe are discussed. A mathematical model is presented for predicting the development of boundary layer thickness, ...
Durability of Hollow-Core GFRP–Concrete–Steel Columns under Severe Weather Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the emerging applications of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes is hollow-core FRP–concrete–steel (HC-FCS) columns. HC-FCS columns demonstrate superior advantages in material savings and mechanical behavior. ...
Experimental Study on the Thawing Characteristics of Frozen Clay Minerals and Frozen Sand–Mineral Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The soil thawing characteristic curve (STCC), which delineates the relationship between unfrozen water content and temperature during the thawing process of frozen soil, is a critical factor with significant implications ...
Optimization of Inert Gas Feeding Strategy in a Fixed-Bed Reactor for Efficient Water Splitting Via Solar-Driven Thermal Reduction of Nonstoichiometric CeO2
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, a solar-driven reduction process of nonstoichiometric cerium oxide in a fixed bed is optimized for efficient water splitting via metal-oxide-based redox cycling. Nitrogen is used as sweeping gas to scavenge ...

Measurement, Spatial Differences, and the Dynamic Evolution of China's Urban Business Environment Levels
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The business environment is a critical element in promoting high-quality urban economic development. To evaluate the quality of the business environment in Chinese cities, we first build a business environment evaluation ...
Removal of Uranium From Aqueous Solution by Chitosan and Ferrous Ions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study focuses on developing a new method to remove uranium from aqueous solution. Chitosan and ferrous ions were used together to remove uranium ions from aqueous solution. Through two-step ...
Joint Probability Modeling for Two Debris-Flow Variables: Copula Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents joint probability modeling for debris flows’ maximum impact pressure and total sediment discharge through the use of the copula theory that has been proven useful to joint probability modeling. On the ...
Analytical Study on Heat Transfer of a Tunnel Lining-Rock-Insulation Structure in Cold Regions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In cold regions, the flow of outside air into a tunnel often causes freeze–thaw damage to the surrounding rock, and insulation methods are usually adopted to avoid this damage. In this study, the heat transfer in a multilayer ...
