Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Eping Dam is located in Zhuxi County, Hubei Province, China. On September 1, 2021, due to continuous high-intensity flooding, the end of the spillway relief channel section was washed away from the antiarc section of ...
Formulation of Biological Cold Patching Agent in the Application of Cold Patching Asphalt Mixture
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Bio-based cold patching asphalt mixture shows promising properties in pothole reparation and provides an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional paving materials. However, in-depth studies and the reliable ...
Quantifying the Contribution of Urbanization to Summer Extreme High-Temperature Events in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei Urban Agglomeration
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Determining the contribution of urbanization to extreme high-temperature events is essential to the coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei (BTH). Based on the dynamic data of land-use change in every 5 ...
A Rapid Evaluation Method for the Vertical Condition of Bridge Substructures Using Bayesian System Identification and Output-Only Measurements
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Evaluating the bearing capacity of bridge substructures is very important for bridge maintenance and management. However, existing studies that rely on static load tests (SLTs) or transient response methods (TRMs) have ...
