Research on Collapse Mechanism and Failure Criterion of Superlarge Cooling Tower under Downburst Effect
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The world’s highest cooling tower (228 m), which is under construction in Northwest China, was chosen to study the response characteristics and collapse mechanism of a superlarge cooling tower under the downburst ...
Determining the Existence of the Fine Sediment Flocculation in the Three Gorges Reservoir
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Several proofs for the existence of flocculation in the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) are found through field measurements and laboratory experiments. The suspended particles and bed sediments are fine, and the particle ...
Collapse Mechanism and Failure Criterion of Superlarge Cooling Tower under Tornado
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the tallest cooling tower (228 m) completed construction in the world in northwest China was chosen to investigate wind-induced failure mechanism of superlarge cooling towers under tornado. A multiscale ...
Design of Minimum Horizontal Curve Radius in Plateau Areas: Psychophysiological Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The unique natural geographic environment at high altitudes, characterized by low partial pressure, significantly reduces blood oxygen levels and affects human systems. These impacts directly influence drivers’ psychophysiological ...
Improvement of Water Stability of Macroporous Polyurethane Mixture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study examined a method to improve the water stability of macroporous polyurethane mixtures. Poor water stability of these mixtures has become an obstacle to their popularization and practical application. The water ...
