Abstract: In recent years, the planning idea of denser road networks and smaller blocks has received particular interest from planners and researchers. However, what is the impact of road network density on the efficiency of automobile ...

Abstract: In this paper, a thermodynamic equilibrium analysis coupled with experimentation for the hydrogen production from dimethyl ether is performed by total Gibbs free energy minimization method. Heat requirement from the process ...

Abstract: The results of an experimental and numerical study of the flexural behavior of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with glass-fiber-reinforced-polymer (GFRP) laminates are presented in this paper. In the experimental ...

Abstract: The digital elevation model (DEM) has been widely used in hydrological analysis and flood assessment. While DEMs, derived from airborne light detection and ranging (lidar) technology, have sufficient accuracy for large-scale ...

Abstract: Continuous seafloor transponder positioning with moored buoy observation system is an indispensable method for detecting seafloor crustal deformation. However, the between-buoy baseline information provided by the global ...

Abstract: A new approach to the early prediction of turning chatter is described in this paper; the interval frequency difference H in the amplitude domain of the dynamic cutting force is taken as a ...

Abstract: As an outcome of epigenetic reformation in rock slope, the rockfall hazard poses significant detriment to human activities and infrastructure. Among the related parameters including incidence velocity, slope materials, and ...
