Tendon Model for Nonlinear Analysis of Externally Prestressed Concrete Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present study describes a nonlinear analysis model developed for externally prestressed structures. This model is capable of simulating the slip of the tendon on the deviator and the friction at the interface of the ...
Tendon Model for Nonlinear Analysis of Prestressed Concrete Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A tendon model based on the finite-element method, that can represent the interaction between tendon and concrete of the prestressed concrete member, is proposed. Especially for multitendon cases, this model is capable of ...
Distributed Energy-Sharing Strategy for Peer-to-Peer Microgrid System
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The rapid growth of renewable distributed generation (RDG) requires further development of the electricity market for distributed energy. This paper proposes an energy-sharing platform as the energy management model with ...
Comparison of SBS-Modified Asphalt Rheological Properties during Simple-Aging Test
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The objective of this paper is to evaluate the effect of different aging times on the performance of styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) copolymer–modified asphalt. Two kinds of SBS-modified asphalt with different SBS contents ...
Joint Risk Assessment of the Secondary Disasters of Rainstorms based on Multisource Spatial Data in Wuhan, China
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Rainstorms easily can cause serious secondary disasters such as waterlogging, debris flow, and flood, and the combination of these secondary disasters makes cities more vulnerable. However, to date, few studies have ...
Turbulence Noise of Slat Trailing Edge Controlled by Porous Material
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The utilization of porous materials is regarded as an effective strategy for mitigating aerodynamic noise at the trailing edge. In this study, a two-step computational fluid mechanics/computational aeroacoustics (CFD/CAA) ...
Solidification and Stabilization of Heavy Metals in Municipal Solid Waste Incineration Fly Ash Using Nanoalumina by Alkali-Activated Treatment
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash containing heavy metals is hazardous solid waste that requires safe disposal. Alkali-activated treatment can effectively improve the environmental safety of MSWI fly ash. ...
Combustion Reactivity of Biochar and Char Generated from Co-Pyrolysis of Coal and Four Additives: Application in Blast Furnace
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Study of Deformation Mechanism and Surface Formation of Laser Coupled Ultrasonic Vibration-Assisted Turning of SiCp/Al Composites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to enhance the machinability of SiCp/Al composites and improve the surface quality after machining, a laser-ultrasonic vibration-assisted machining (LA-UVAM) method is presented. In order to investigate the ...
Bursting, Dynamics, and Circuit Implementation of a New Fractional-Order Chaotic System With Coexisting Hidden Attractors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Systems with hidden attractors have been the hot research topic of recent years because of their striking features. Fractional-order systems with hidden attractors are newly introduced and barely investigated. In this ...
