Abstract: This study presents a procedure for simulating traffic loads for long-span suspension bridges based on the data recorded by the weigh-in-motion (WIM) system and the agent-based traffic flow microsimulation. The past traffic ...

Abstract: Many existing exoskeletons have followed a similar design concept that a rigid kinematic chain is actuated to mobilize a human wearer in spite of the intended applications. For performanceaugmenting applications where an ...

Abstract: Based on the twin shear unified strength theory, the analytical equations for calculating stress, displacement, radius of plastic zone, and characteristic curve equation of surrounding rock in circular submarine tunnels ...
