Abstract: The fatigue performance of emulsified asphalt mastics directly affects the long-term service performance of emulsified asphalt cold recycled pavement. Fatigue properties of 24 different mastics before and after short-term ...

Abstract: The radial gap between the impeller tips and volute tongue is an important factor influencing the overall performance and unsteady pressure fields of the pump as turbine (PAT). In this paper, a numerical investigation of ...

Abstract: The effects of mixed corrosion and freeze-thaw cycles on the mechanical properties of concrete prism specimens and the effects of mixed corrosion, freeze-thaw cycles, and persistent loads on the structural behavior of ...

Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study of concrete columns reinforced by steel basalt-fiber composite bars (SBFCBs) and steel basalt-fiber hybrid stirrups (SBFHSs) as innovative hybrid reinforcements. Four RC columns ...

Abstract: Steel-fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite bars (SFCBs) are a novel reinforcement for concrete structures. Because of the FRP’s linear elastic characteristic and high ultimate strength, they can achieve a stable postyield ...

Abstract: This case report presents two pedestrian passages underneath an urban expressway with a spacing of 0.5 m, which were constructed using rectangular pipe jacking technology in Nanjing, China. To better understand the ...

Abstract: This paper introduces a newly developed steel-fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite bar (SFCB) and proposes the ideal configuration based on a large number of exploratory tests on handmade products. Based on factory ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of corrosion and scouring on the barge impact fragility of bridge structures. A typical four-span continuous reinforced concrete (RC) bridge is selected as the baseline structure, and a ...
