Abstract: In current force-based seismic design procedures, structures are allowed to behave inelastically during significant seismic events. For this reason, the applied design base shear of a structure is calculated by reducing ...

Abstract: In this study, a combustion facility was constructed that includes a flexible fuel supply system to produce synthesis gas using a maximum of three components. The rig with lean premixed burner ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation into the response of stone column–improved soft clay under dynamic traffic load conditions. Six reduced-scale model tests were performed with vertical traffic ...

Abstract: A compound diesel homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) combustion system has been developed based on the combined combustion strategies of multiple injection strategy and a mixing enhanced ...

Abstract: The diffusion of oxygen molecules significantly influence the rate and extent of asphalt’s oxidative aging. This research delves into the dynamic diffusion of oxygen within asphalt, examining the effects of temperature, ...

Abstract: This paper aims to study the strength and damage characteristics of basalt fiber-reinforced concrete (BFRC) under dynamic splitting tensile loads. Brazilian disk splitting tests and acoustic emission (AE) tests were carried ...
