Abstract: This paper focused on investigating the moment resistance of steel I-beam to concrete-filled tube (CFT) column uniplanar connections under monotonic static loading. The composite connection can be stiffened or unstiffened. ...

Abstract: Numerical models are convenient for the management of basin fertigation. However, the characteristic line approach, commonly applied to solve the advection-dispersion equation, presents disadvantages such as numerical ...

Abstract: Automatic train operation (ATO) is an important part of automatic train control (ATC) systems in urban rail transit. Using computers to simulate the complicated circumstances of train movement to test the operations of ...

Abstract: Two-dimensional shallow water and advection-dispersion equations were applied to describe the surface water and solute transport processes in basin fertigation. Then the fully implicit temporal solution was constructed for ...

Abstract: Film cooling, as a key technology to ensure turbine survival in new generation gas turbines, has been studied profusely in subsonic flows. But in transonic flow, the determination of adiabatic cooling effectiveness faces ...

Abstract: To achieve efficient simulation for surface shallow-water flows in large-scale basin irrigation, a semi-Lagrangian numerical solution for two-dimensional shallow-water equations in unstructured spatial cells was developed. ...
