Factors Affecting the Utilization of Big Data in Construction Projects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: With the rapid development of information and communication technologies, big data is expected to enable the creation of new paradigms for construction project management and improve the efficiency of design and construction ...
Comparisons of Natural and Enhanced Asphalt Mixtures Containing Recycled Cement-Stabilized Macadam as Aggregates
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The recycling of cement-stabilized macadam (CSM) is beneficial from the effective utilization of resources and the viewpoint of environmental preservation. For the effective utilization of CSM, it is useful to use CSM as ...
Experimental Study on the Confinement of Concrete Cylinders with Large Rupture-Strain FRP Composites
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Large rupture strain (LRS) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites, typically formed from polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers, generally exhibit ultimate rupture strains >5%. ...
Multiagent Stochastic Dynamic Game for Smart Generation Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a multiagent (MA) smart generation control (SGC) scheme for the coordination of automatic generation control (AGC) in power grids with system uncertainties. Under the control performance standards, SGC ...
Shake Table Tests of Large-Scale Substandard RC Frames Retrofitted with CFRP Wraps before Earthquakes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A large number of substandard reinforced concrete (RC) frames exist in potential earthquake regions across the world. These frames are at high risk of collapse during possible strong earthquakes in the future. In order to ...
Seismic Performance of CFRP-Retrofitted Large-Scale Square RC Columns with High Axial Compression Ratios
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Numerous reinforced concrete frames have collapsed in major earthquakes because of severe local damage at the ends of columns. Many of these frames were designed and built according to out-of-date codes in which earthquake ...
Seismic Analysis of the Zipingpu Concrete-Faced Rockfill Dam Response to the 2008 Wenchuan, China, Earthquake
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the findings from both the detailed site investigations and the computational analyses on the Zipingpu concrete-faced rockfill dam (CFRD), a 156-m high dam in which 100-cm permanent settlement and 60-cm ...
Hybrid FRP-Concrete-Steel Multitube Concrete Columns: Concept and Behavior
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the conceptual development of a new form of hybrid structural column, termed the hybrid fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-concrete-steel multiple-tube concrete column (MTCC). A MTCC consists of an external ...
Convective Coupling in Tropical-Depression-Type Waves. Part II: Moisture and Moist Static Energy Budgets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The companion of this paper, Part I, discovered the characteristics of the rainfall progression in tropical-depression (TD)-type waves over the western North Pacific. In Part II, the large-scale controls on the convective ...
