RISEffect of Pore-Water Pressure on 3D Stability of Rock Slope
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The strength envelopes of almost all types of rocks are nonlinear over a wide range of normal stresses. This paper presents a study in which the nonlinear Hoek-Brown failure criterion was adopted and the kinematical approach ...
Condition Monitoring Using a Latent Process Model with an Application to Sheet Metal Stamping Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a new condition monitoring method based on a latent process model. The method consists of three steps. First, a sensor signal is modeled by a latent process model that ...
Finite Time Input to State Stability and Optimization of Switched Nonlinear Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we address the (uniform) finitetime inputtostate stability problem for switched nonlinear systems. We prove that a switched nonlinear system has a useful finitetime inputtostate stability property under ...
Downscaling Ensemble Weather Predictions for Improved Week-2 Hydrologic Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates the use of large-scale ensemble weather predictions provided by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) Global Forecast System [GFS; formerly known as Medium-Range Forecast (MRF)] ...
Reliability Analysis of Tunnel Face in Broken Soft Rocks Using Improved Response Surface Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An improved response surface method (RSM) is presented for reliability analysis of a tunnel face in broken soft rocks. To fully consider the variation of the slip surface caused by the random variables in the process of ...
Limit Analysis of Active and Passive Mechanisms of Shallow Tunnels in Nonassociative Soil with Changing Water Table
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The evaluation of the failure mechanism of a shallow tunnel is very significant in geotechnical engineering. In this literature an analytical methodology for determining the plane strain limit failure mechanism for a shallow ...
Evaluating Sustainable Urbanization of Resource-Based Cities Based on the McKinsey Matrix: Case Study in China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Urbanization in resource-based Chinese cities is experiencing rapid development, which has resulted in many problems. This paper introduces a McKinsey matrix–based method to assess the sustainable urbanization performance ...
Seismic Displacement of 3D Slope Reinforced by Piles with Nonlinear Failure Criterion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The seismic displacement estimation of soil slopes was generally focused on the plane strain assumption with a linear Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion. In engineering, slope stability often becomes more of a three-dimensional ...

Influencing Factors and Critical Paths of Virtual Reality Adoption by AEC Enterprises Based on TOE-SNA
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Virtual reality (VR) holds significant potential for the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry. However, its adoption by AEC enterprises remains relatively low. VR adoption is affected by many factors, ...
