Abstract: Perfobond rib connectors (PBLs) are widely applied to transfer the shear force in steel-concrete composite members. To investigate the mechanical behavior of PBL shear connectors, push-out tests were carried out under ...

Abstract: Aiming at the phenomenon of small size and concrete incompactness in the densely packed reinforcement in the web plate, the top plate and between the prestressed reinforcement, the concrete compactness coefficient was put ...

Abstract: Superficially, the optimal control problem of a general system may be handled by the stochastic dynamic programming or stochastic maximum principles. The practical application of these two principles, however, is confined ...

Abstract: To speed up ABS development, the online monitoring and calibration platform for mobile anti-lock breaking system was developed. Using USB to CAN module and CCP calibration protocol, real-time communication between platform ...

Abstract: Taking Edong Yangtze River Bridge as the research subject, the influence of error of unstressed cable length on the geometric shape and internal force of super-span hybrid girder cable-stayed bridge during completion is ...

Abstract: Coal to liquid (CTL) is one of the potential methods to obtain the alternative fuel used in diesel engines. There are two methods to obtain alternative fuel from coal, namely, indirect and direct liquefaction processes. ...
