Abstract: A volume tracking method was developed to simulate time-dependent unstable viscous fingering in a Hele-Shaw cell. The effect of finite viscosity ratio μr between displacing and displaced fluids ...

Abstract: Flexural retrofitting of reinforced concrete (RC) beams using fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) plate is a common way to increase the flexural capacity. There is a lack of rational design method to determine where the ...

Abstract: The effect of viscoelasticity in web handling systems is examined by introducing a viscoelastic equation of state into a model for tension control. Case studies and generalized results for a ...

Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) plate debonding is commonly caused by the fracturing of concrete, but few studies of fracture debonding models exist, from which the failure load of the concrete cover layer can be evaluated. ...
