RISHow Did Air Pollution Change during the COVID-19 Outbreak in China?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In early December 2019, an outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) occurred in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China, and spread fast throughout China. As of 15 June 2020, there have been about 84,000 confirmed cased ...
Numerical Simulation of the Thermal Performance and Thermal Influencing Radius of a Heat-Transfer Pipe in a Backfill Body
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The horizontal ground heat exchanger has been extensively employed to collect geothermal energy from mine backfill bodies. A novel method for avoiding thermal interference using the thermal influencing radius coupling pipe ...
Element Failure Risk Assessment of Soil Slope
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Two traditional methods when calculating slope failure risk (R) are the rigid body limit equilibrium (LEM) and finite-element methods (FEM). However, the LEM requires the previous assumption of the location and shape of ...

Element Failure Probability of Soil Slope under Consideration of Random Groundwater Level
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The instability of soil slopes is directly related to the shear parameters of the soil material and groundwater, which usually causes some uncertainty. In this study, a novel method, the element failure probability method ...
