Finite-Element Analysis and Strength Model for IC Debonding in FRP-Strengthened RC Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Intermediate crack (IC) debonding is one of the most dominant failure modes associated with reinforced concrete beams strengthened with fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) plates. To obtain a better understanding of the mechanism ...
Numerical Investigation on the Progressive Collapse Behavior of Precast Reinforced Concrete Frame Subassemblages
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical investigation of the progressive collapse behavior of the precast RC frame subassemblages. An efficient numerical model for precast RC frame subassemblages under progressive collapse is ...
Experiment of Heat Transfer to Supercritical Water Flowing in Vertical Annular Channels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental study of heat transfer to supercritical water has been performed at Xi'an Jiaotong University with a vertical annular tube. The annular test sections were constructed with an annular gap of 2 mm and an ...
Development of a Bridge Weigh-in-Motion System Based on Long-Gauge Fiber Bragg Grating Sensors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Monitoring the weight of vehicles is essential for policymakers to maintain the condition of bridges. In the group of methods for weighing vehicles, bridge weigh-in-motion (B-WIM) systems are among the most prominent and ...
Long-Term Bond Durability of Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars Embedded in Seawater Sea-Sand Concrete under Ocean Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study on the bond durability of basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars, steel–fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composite bars (SFCB), and steel bars embedded in seawater sea-sand ...
Clustering Analysis of Ridership Patterns at Subway Stations: A Case in Nanjing, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Better understanding of urban mass transit trip mobility patterns will be helpful to increase public transit ridership and improve transit services of large cities. Therefore, a station-oriented clustering analysis on ...
An Advanced Critical State Constitutive Model for Overconsolidated Structured Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents a constitutive model for simulating the stress–strain behavior of overconsolidated structured soils. The model extends the scope of a previous 10-parameter constitutive model proposed by the authors for ...
Forced Convection Heat Transfer Using High Temperature and Pressure Water in an Upward-Inclined Tube
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Within the range of pressure from 9 to 28 MPa, mass flux from 600 to 1500 kg/m2 s, heat flux at inside wall from 200 to 600 kW/m2 , and wall temperature up to 650 °C, experiments ...
Experimental Investigations on the Soil–Water Characteristic Curve and the Deformation Behaviors of Unsaturated Cement–Stabilized Soft Clay
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Cement stabilization is a widely applied technique in improving the workability and geotechnical properties of soft clay. This paper investigated the influence of cement stabilization on the soil–water characteristic curve ...
