Abstract: Many hydraulic engineering projects concern the control of sedimentation. For some large engineering projects, such as construction of a navigation channel over many kilometers in a shallow estuary, comprehensive control ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the viability and advantages of incorporating off-specification fly ash (OSFA) into the production of strain-hardening cementitious composites (SHCC). Influences of variables in mix design on key ...

Abstract: Some special tasks require human operations and cannot be performed by robots or other autonomous equipment, such as special industrial assembly and surgical procedures in small and crowded spaces. Workers/surgeons in these ...

Abstract: This paper evaluated the cement-based materials incorporated with novel solid–gel phase change materials (PCMs) for improving the energy efficiency of building envelopes. This novel PCM is form-stable, which will not leak ...
