Observer Design for Singularly Perturbed Systems With Multirate Sampled and Delayed Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper considers observer design problem of singularly perturbed systems (SPSs) with multirate sampled and delayed measurements. The outputs are classified into two sets which are measured at different sampling rates ...
Design Calculation Method for Soft Foundation Treatment by Geocell Mattress and Stone Column
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Working mechanisms of a new foundation treatment technology formed by geocell reinforced mattress and stone column were discussed. Combining with a certain engineering project, techniques of treating soft soil foundation ...
Double-Beam Model to Analyze the Performance of a Pavement Structure on Geocell-Reinforced Embankment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the present study, an attempt has been made to establish and analyze a model of a composite working system combining an upper pavement structure and a geocell-reinforced embankment. In the model, the geocell-reinforced ...
Calculation of Pile-soil Stress Ratio of Rigid Pile Composite Foundation with Consideration of Upward Penetration of Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Deformation performance of rigid pile composite foundation under vertical loading was discussed, and the relationship between the pile lateral friction and the relative deformation of piles and soil was studied. By adopting ...
Experiments on Active Vibration Control of a Flexible Four-Bar Linkage Mechanism
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experiments are performed to actively suppress vibration of a flexible four-bar linkage mechanism bonded with piezoelectric materials as sensor and actuator. The control system is built up with ...
Small-Scale Rain Nonuniformity and Its Effect on Evaluation of Nonuniform Beam-Filling Error for Spaceborne Radar Rain Measurement
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An observational method has been proposed to sample radar echo with high range resolutions using a ground-based meteorological radar. Utilizing this method, the rainfall echo data with a high range resolution of 125 m was ...
Performance of Geosynthetic-Reinforced and Pile-Supported Embankment with Consideration of Soil Arching
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The phenomena of soil arching is frequently encountered in geosyntheic-reinforced and pile-supported embankments (GRPSE). This study emphasizes a complicated issue of interactions integrating the embankment soil and ...
Calculation of Settlement of Composite Foundation with Rigid Piles under Flexible Ground
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: According to the character of the interaction of the pile, soil and cushion in composite foundation by fitting the vertical relative displacement distribution function of pile-soil element and introducing an elastic-plastic ...
Pile-soil Stress Ratio of Pile-supported and Geogird-reinforced Composite Foundation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The load and deformation of the pile-capped horizontal reinforced cushion of the pile-supported and geogrid-reinforced composite foundation were discussed to obtain the deformation and the tension stress of the reinforced ...
World’s Greatest Observed Point Rainfalls: Jennings (1950) Scaling Law
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he observed relation of worldwide precipitation maxima P versus duration d follows the Jennings scaling law, P ≈ db, with scaling coefficient b ≈ 0.5. This scaling is demonstrated to hold for single-station rainfall extending ...
