Abstract: Drive-in storage racks, made of cold-formed steel, are the main racking system used in industry for storing goods. The storage space utilization of drive-in racks is high at the price of the weak downaisle stability. This ...

Abstract: Emissions from fossil fuel combustion containing various heavy metals such as molybdenum are of public concern due to their adverse effects on human health and the environment. In this study, thermodynamic analyses were ...

Abstract: In this work, a simple assembled structure was designed and fabricated so that the calibration procedures on piezoresistive stress sensors for microelectronic packaging can be simpler, more ...

Abstract: The correct form of Eq. (16) is as follows:Display FormulaR0r1c=LDR=e(1+n)[(2 fe−n−e−μπ/2t0/rd)(1+R)/2−4μ(1+2R)/[2(1+R)]]+e2n(1+R)/2−1

Abstract: AbstractThis article compares the skill of medium-range probabilistic quantitative precipitation forecasts (PQPFs) generated via two postprocessing mechanisms: 1) the mixed-type meta-Gaussian distribution (MMGD) model and ...

Abstract: Two key factors in dam-break modeling are accuracy and speed. Therefore, high-performance calculations are of great importance to the simulation of dam-break events. In this study, we develop a two-dimensional hydrodynamic ...

Abstract: A new and practically applicable equation, including the normal anisotropy R, the strain hardening exponent n, the friction coefficient μ, and the bending factor t0/rd for estimating the limiting ...

Abstract: It is still an open problem to develop a model with a uniform theoretical treatment under various loading conditions. This paper aims to formulate such a model for describing both monotonic and cyclic behaviors of granular ...

Abstract: In the context of sampling, monitoring, and sensing in infrastructures, there is an interest in algorithms to produce an observation plan that is cost effective, while maximizing the benefits of the new observations. This ...
