Macroscopic Embodiment of Stress–Strain Behavior of Backfill Soil on the Displacement-Dependent Earth Pressure Curve
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Treating the soil within the failure zone behind the wall as the specimen in a simple shear box, and the soil transition from initial to limit states as the shearing process of soil specimen, a geometrical model was proposed ...
Multi-Ion Erosion Experiment and Corrosion Mechanism Verification of Steel Fiber–Reinforced Concrete under Stray Current
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The durability of concrete structures that have been in service for a long time under the coupled action of stray current and salt-brine environment has become increasingly important. Because of the excellent mechanical ...
Driving Forces of Landscape Fragmentation due to Urban Transportation Networks: Lessons from Fujian, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The study of landscape fragmentation offers promising approaches for better understanding how the interaction between natural conditions and socioeconomic factors generates environmental changes. In this paper, the state ...

Abstract: The study of landscape fragmentation offers promising approaches for better understanding how the interaction between natural conditions and socioeconomic factors generates environmental changes. In this paper, the state ...
Multifaceted Influences of Urbanization on Sense of Place in the Rural–Urban Fringes of China: Growing, Dissolving, and Transitioning
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Rural–urban fringes are places undergoing dramatic shifts in people–place relationships worldwide, but relevant studies have yet to sufficiently reveal the change mechanism. This paper aims to use sense of place (SOP) as ...
Measuring and Understanding Public Perception of Preference for Ordinary Landscape in the Chinese Context: Case Study from Wuhan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The change in public landscape cognition is of crucial significance in achieving sustainable landscape management, but it has not drawn enough attention in China. Landscape cognition was recognized as a cognitive process ...
Role of Particle Breakage in Rockfill Materials: Investigated by Using Combined SBFEM/DEM with Two Different Breakage Models
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research will investigate the numerical simulation of rockfill materials using a combined scaled boundary finite–discrete element method (SBFEM/DEM) with two breakage models. Two rockfill specimens that are subjected ...
Strength Characteristics and Failure Mechanisms of Silty Mudstone with Preexisting Cracks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Understanding the cracking behaviors and failure mechanisms of soft rocks with existing cracks is crucial in designing rock engineering structures. Hence, we studied the influence of crack parameters, including crack ...
Analysis of Reasonable Energy Price Ratios in China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As a result of China’s rapid economic growth, energy demand has increased significantly in recent years. Consequently, energy pricing has become increasingly prominent. This paper defines reasonable energy price ratios and ...
Failure of Frozen Sandstone under Uniaxial Compression with Interpretation of Pressure Melting of Pore Ice from Electrical Resistance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Understanding the failure process in frozen porous rock is of great importance to both geomorphology research and engineering design in cold regions. The mechanical behavior of frozen porous rock has its own particularity ...
