RISInfluence of Carbon Nanotubes on Wear of Carbide/Cobalt Micropunch
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) coated on a tungsten carbide/cobalt (WC/Co) micropunch (150 خ¼m in diameter) and their effect on the wear of micropunches were investigated. CNTs were synthesized by homemade method. After the ...

Shake Table Test on a Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridge with Viscous Dampers Considering Wave Passage Effects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work focused on the damping effectiveness of additional longitudinal viscous dampers employed for seismic control of long-span cable-stayed bridges considering wave passage effects. A 1/35-scale physical model scaled ...
Model Tests of Recycled Aggregate Use in Rammed Stone Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Construction activities are generating substantial amounts of construction waste due to the rapid increase in economic growth and infrastructure developments. A series of laboratory model tests were conducted to investigate ...
Experimental Study on Air- and Water-Inflated Double-Rubber Dams
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A double rubber dam with the upper dam inflated by air and lower dam inflated by water is proposed in this paper. Large-scale physical hydraulic model tests are carried out to investigate the influence of the inflated air ...
Reliability Analysis and Design of Vertically Loaded Piles in Spatially Variable Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: At present, the reliability analysis and design method of vertically loaded piles embedded in spatially variable soils is difficult to be applied in practical engineering due to the huge computation effort required. To ...
Study of Tourism Economic Resilience Evaluation and Governance Model of Island Cities under Uncertain Environments: A Case Study of Hainan Island, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the face of uncertain development scenarios, this study aims to investigate the resilience of urban tourism economies, focusing specifically on island destinations like Hainan Island with limited internal resources. ...
A Novel Low-Pressure Release Method Based on Inlet Regulation for Users with Low Demand Scenario
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Due to the mismatch between gas production and consumption in the gas delivery system (GDS), reduced customer demand can easily lead to overpressure and gas release. Companies mainly use high-pressure release (HPR) to lower ...
Fiscal Implications of Disasters and the Managed Retreat Thereafter: Evidence from Hurricane Sandy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Local governments stand at the frontline of responding to natural hazards, but they often lack the capacity and resources necessary to manage such crises. Disasters can affect local government spending and revenue streams ...
PFC-FLAC3D Coupled Modeling on Rammed Stone Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A three-dimensional Particle Flow Code (PFC)-3D and Fast Lagrangian Analysis in the Continua (FLAC3D) coupled numerical model is presented in this study to investigate the bearing capacities of rammed stone columns (RSCs) ...
