Cut-Slope Icing Prevention: Case Study of the Seasonal Frozen Area of Western China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Icing caused by the construction of cut-slope roadways is a severe problem in cold regions and is difficult to mitigate. This study proposes a method for preventing icing on cut-slope roadways. A new structure for icing ...
Forecast Modeling of Monthly Runoff with Adaptive Neural Fuzzy Inference System and Wavelet Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: There is no real periodicity in the changes of hydrological systems. Changes in a hydrological system take place with different periodic variations from time to time. In this paper, a new method was utilized to predict ...

Abstract: Icing caused by the construction of cut-slope roadways is a severe problem in cold regions and is difficult to mitigate. This study proposes a method for preventing icing on cut-slope roadways. A new structure for icing ...
An Advanced Critical State Constitutive Model for Overconsolidated Structured Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents a constitutive model for simulating the stress–strain behavior of overconsolidated structured soils. The model extends the scope of a previous 10-parameter constitutive model proposed by the authors for ...
Experimental Investigations on the Soil–Water Characteristic Curve and the Deformation Behaviors of Unsaturated Cement–Stabilized Soft Clay
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Cement stabilization is a widely applied technique in improving the workability and geotechnical properties of soft clay. This paper investigated the influence of cement stabilization on the soil–water characteristic curve ...
Online Public Opinion Mining for Large Cross-Regional Projects: Case Study of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project in China
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Public perspective has long been ignored in ex-post evaluation of large cross-regional projects (LCPs), and the emergence of online public participation affords the opportunity to obtain and analyze public opinions from a ...
Sentiment Analysis of Weather-Related Tweets from Cities within Hot Climates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Evidence exists that exposure to weather hazards, particularly in cities subject to heat island and climate change impacts, strongly affects individuals’ physical and mental health. Personal exposure to and sentiments about ...
Dynamic Behaviors of Delaminated Nanofilms Partly Bonded on Substrates With Sub-Nanoscale van der Waals Dynamic Boundaries
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic behaviors of delaminated nanofilms on substrates are universal and essential phenomena in nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). Van der Waals (vdWs) interactions play an important role in the dynamic behaviors of ...
