Abstract: This paper proposes a framework to evaluate hurricane resilience of residential communities. Building resilience often refers to community resilience instead of individual resilience. Few efforts have been made to relate ...

Abstract: The concept, basic principle, and characteristics of twice-prestressed composite beam are introduced, and the mechanical performance, deformation performance, and creep stress redistribution of the horizontal interface of ...

Abstract: The existing theories or numerical models of thaw consolidation for frozen soil rarely consider the influence of the thermal effect, so it is difficult to analyze the problem of thaw thermoconsolidation for frozen soil ...

Abstract: Horizontal electrodes offer advantages in reducing the soil cracks near the anode, allowing for simultaneous filling and consolidation, and have thus received sustained attention. This paper proposed an analytical approach ...
