Characteristics of a New-Type Geocell Flexible Retaining Wall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Geocell flexible retaining wall is a new type of retaining structure constructed by stacking three-dimensional network geocells filled with soil or gravel. The writers analyzed the interaction among wall, reinforced layers, ...
Human Error Identification and Analysis for Shield Machine Operation Using an Adapted TRACEr Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper investigated shield machine operation (SMO) errors involved in shield tunneling construction accidents based on the Technique for the Retrospective and Predictive Analysis of Cognitive Errors (TRACEr). Human ...
Transient Flow and Heat Transfer in a Horizontal Rectangular Channel Considering Thermal–Fluid–Structure Interaction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For the supercritical n-decane horizontally flowing in a rectangular channel of an active regenerative cooling system, a transient thermal–fluid–structure coupling method is employed to investigate the unsteady thermal-hydraulic ...
Understanding the Roles of Convective Trigger Functions in the Diurnal Cycle of Precipitation in the NCAR CAM5

Conception and Evaluation of a Novel Type of Support in Loess Tunnels
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The limited efficiency of current supports has led to serious support system problems in loess tunnel construction, which are mainly noted in arch distortion, shotcrete cracking, surface subsidence, and even total structural ...
