ASCE ( American Society of Civil Engineers )
Description: The American Society of Civil Engineers represents more than 150,000 members of the civil engineering profession in 177 countries. Founded in 1852, ASCE is the nation’s oldest engineering society. ASCE stands at the forefront of a profession that plans, designs, constructs, and operates society’s economic and social engine – the built environment – while protecting and restoring the natural environment.

RISStrength and Fracture Properties of Sandy Subgrade Soil Treated with Sodium Polystyrene Sulfonate
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Organic polymers have been extensively studied over the last decades, and most of the research focused on the mechanical performance of the soils treated with polymer at different dosages without addressing the effects of ...
Mesoscale Numerical Study on Time-Dependent Nonuniform Steel Corrosion–Induced Damage in Recycled Aggregate Concrete Systems
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study investigates the chloride transport and resulting corrosion-induced damage to reinforced recycled aggregate concrete (RAC) using finite-element simulations. A two-dimensional five-phase mesoscale-level time-dependent ...
Interfacial Thickness Characterization and Tensile Properties of Calcium-Silicate-Hydrate/Calcium Hydroxide Composites via Molecular Dynamics Simulations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As the main hydration products, calcium-silicate-hydrate (C─ S─ H) and portlandite (CH) contribute significantly to the tensile strength of cementitious materials. However, the role of interface in the C─ S─ H/CH composites ...
Experimental Investigation on Erosion of Ultrahigh-Performance Concrete with Short-Distance Water Impact Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper aims to propose a short-distance water impact method to test the hydraulic erosion resistance of ultrahigh performance concrete materials (UHPC). The method used high-velocity water flow to simulate a complex ...
Stability Analysis of a Shield Tunnel in Unsaturated Soil Considering the Soil Arch Effect
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper aims at proposing a calculation model to deal with the face stability of shield tunnels in unsaturated soil. Based on the existing results of centrifugal test and numerical simulation, a new failure mechanism ...
Experimental Evaluation of Microvoid Characteristics and Relationship with Stress and Strain for Ductile Fracture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study aims to characterize the microvoid sizes and their statistical distribution at the instance of fracture from the fracture surface of steel specimens. To this end, uniaxial tensile tests are conducted on ...
Evaluation of the Performance of Micro–Nano Bubbles to Control the Simultaneous Inorganic and Colloidal Foulings in Reverse Osmosis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The coexistence of different foulant compositions in the feed water of reverse osmosis (RO) systems causes serious complications in the fouling process of the membranes. Hence, in this technical research, the phenomenon ...
In Situ Treatment of Domestic Food Waste and Bioflocculated Sewage Sludge in Decentralized Wastewater Treatment Plant
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To reduce the operating cost of wastewater treatment plants and in situ treatment of sewage sludge and domestic food waste, the current investigation of anaerobic codigestion of domestic food waste and primary bioflocculated ...
Efficient Adsorption of Hg(II) Ions Benefits from the Synergistic Effect between Sulfur-Containing MOF-808 and C3N4
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study presents a groundbreaking composite adsorbent, STB@MOF-808-SH, developed through the innovative amalgamation of thiol-functionalized metal-organic framework material (MOF-808-SH) with sulfur-doped C3N4 tubular ...
Influences of Wetting–Drying Cycles on Expansion and Shrinkage, Crack, and Leaching Behaviors of Lime Solidified Pb(II) Contaminated Expansive Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The stabilization/solidification method can improve the engineering properties and reduce the environmental risks of heavy metal-contaminated expansive soil. However, the solidification effects deteriorate for soils ...
