Abstract: Automated or semi-automated pavement condition data collection is replacing manual data collection in many state and local highway agencies due to its advantages of reducing labor, time, and cost. However, the practical ...

Abstract: The steel–concrete–steel (SCS) sandwich composite structures with orthogonal longitudinal and transverse (bidirectional) steel webs exhibit superiorities in strength, ductility, impact resistance, blast resistance, and ...

Abstract: The Svee formula plays a crucial role in assessing the stability of hydropower systems with an air cushion surge chamber (ACSC). This formula is derived from the Thoma formula, a stability criterion for the common open-surge ...
