Theoretical Modeling and Exact Solution for Extreme Bending Deformation of Hard-Magnetic Soft Beams
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hard-magnetic soft materials (HMSMs) manufactured by embedding hard-magnetic particles in soft materials belong to a new type of soft active materials. The abilities of fast and complicated transformations of hard-magnetic ...
Reexamination of the Aridity Conditions in Arid Northwestern China for the Last Decade
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ater resources are an essential part of the ecosystem in the extremely arid northwestern part of China. Previous studies revealed a dry-to-wet climate change since the late 1980s in this region, which suggested a relief ...
An Intensity Index for the East Asian Winter Monsoon
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he thermal contrast between the Asian continent and the adjacent oceans is the primary aspect of the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) that can be well represented in the sea level pressure (SLP) field. Based on this ...
Quasi-biweekly oscillation over the western North Pacific in boreal winter and its influence on the central North American air temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Modeling Mechanical Response of a Perpetual Pavement Test Road
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to model perpetual pavement response, the traffic loads, pavement temperature, and mechanics responses collected from the Shandong perpetual pavement test road were used to develop axle load spectrums, temperature ...
How Does the East Asian Summer Monsoon Behave in the Decaying Phase of El Niño during Different PDO Phases?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: odulation of the Pacific decadal oscillation (PDO) on the behavior of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) in El Niño decaying years has been studied. When El Niño is in phase with the PDO (El Niño/high PDO), the low-level ...
Influence of Curing Regimes on the Mechanical Properties, Water Capillary Adsorption, and Microstructure of CSA Cement Mortar Modified with Styrene-Butadiene Copolymer Dispersion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper studies the influence of curing regimes on the performance and microstructure of polymer-modified mortar. Mortars with five different ratios (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) of styrene-butadiene copolymer (SB) ...
Stability of Unsaturated Soil Slopes with Cracks under Steady-Infiltration Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most classical approaches for evaluating the stability of soil slopes with tension cracks are performed under dry and/or saturated conditions. The suction-induced effect of unsaturated soils is generally neglected in ...
The British–Baikal Corridor: A Teleconnection Pattern along the Summertime Polar Front Jet over Eurasia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The British?Baikal Corridor (BBC) pattern, a new teleconnection along the summertime upper-tropospheric polar front jet (PFJ), is investigated based on observational and reanalysis datasets. The BBC pattern consists of ...
Interdecadal Variations of the Silk Road Pattern
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractBased on several reanalysis and observational datasets, this study suggests that the Silk Road pattern (SRP), a major teleconnection pattern stretching across Eurasia in the boreal summer, shows clear interdecadal ...
