Potential of Di-n-Butyl Ether as an Alternative Fuel for Compression Ignition Engines with Different EGR Rates and Injection Pressure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The high-pressure injection strategy for di-n-butyl ether (DBE)-diesel fuel blends reduces particulate matter emissions. Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technology was used to decrease NOx emissions. In this study, the ...
Influence of Intermediate Principal Stress and Principal Stress Direction on Drained Behavior of Natural Soft Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Drained torsional shear tests were performed on hollow cylindrical intact soft clay specimens to investigate the anisotropic deformation, strength, and noncoaxial behavior in general stress states involving variations in ...
Seismic Response of Earth Dam with Innovative Polymer Antiseepage Wall
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Polymer antiseepage walls have advantages over conventional antiseepage walls in terms of environmental protect and construction convenience. Therefore, it is widely applied in seepage-proofing, reinforcement projects in ...
Three-Dimensional Numerical Modeling of Ground Deformation during Shield Tunneling Considering Principal Stress Rotation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the process of tunnel excavation, the change of soil stress field will inevitably lead to principal stress axis rotation, which is a common but easily ignored phenomenon in shield tunneling. Therefore, it is necessary ...
Study on Working Behaviors and Improvement Strategies of Concrete Cutoff Wall with Slurry Cake in Thick Soil Foundation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concrete cutoff walls are becoming more widely used to control foundation seepage for earth–rock dams built on a thick soil foundation because of the urgent demand for hydroelectric energy. As the lifeline impermeable ...
