Abstract: Public-private partnerships (PPPs) have been encouraged to facilitate the development of public rental housing (PRH) projects in China since 215. The desire for a more efficient and effective PRH delivery by PPPs increases ...

Abstract: This paper presents a novel copula-based approach to model the joint cumulative distribution function (JCDF) of wind speed and direction for wind-resistant design of engineering structures. Copula functions enable the JCDF ...

Abstract: Leaks in water pipelines can create many problems, such as financial loss, environmental pollution, and public health hazards. Previous scholars and engineers have researched leak detection and localization methods for ...

Abstract: Rear-end collisions between autonomous vehicles (AVs) and human-driven vehicles (HVs) represent critical scenarios in road networks. Few studies have focused on the scenarios where a HV hits an AV from behind (called a ...

Abstract: Concerned about environmental pollution and health safety risks, waterborne polyurethane (WPU) was introduced in place of conventional binders in preparing an active carbon polyurethane foam, active carbon WPU foam (ACWPU ...
