RISPerformance of a Reinforced Concrete Box Culvert Installed in Trapezoidal Trenches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The performance of embankment installation (EI) and trench installation (TI) culverts has been investigated through experimental, numerical, and analytical methods. However, there are few studies on the performance of ...
Impacts of Typhoon Track and Island Topography on the Heavy Rainfalls in Taiwan Associated with Morakot (2009)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: loud-resolving ensemble simulations and sensitivity experiments utilizing the Weather Research and Forecasting model (WRF) are performed to investigate the dynamics and predictability of the record-breaking rainfall and ...
Effect of Superplasticizer and Wetting Agent on Pavement Properties of Cold Recycled Mixture with Bitumen Emulsion and Cement
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Cold recycled mixtures with bitumen emulsion and cement (CRMEC) are an environment-friendly and economic recycling technology in pavement rehabilitation. The low tensile strength and relative low pavement properties of ...
Matrix Solution of Compressible Flow on S1 Surface Through a Turbomachine Blade Row With Splitter Vanes or Tandem Blades
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The basic aerothermodynamic equations of turbomachine flow expressed with respect to nonorthogonal curvilinear coordinates and corresponding nonorthogonal velocity components are used to solve the ...
Enhance the Thermal Storage of Cement Based Composites With Phase Change Materials and Carbon Nanotubes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Phase change materials (PCM) have been incorporated with cementitious construction materials to store thermal energy and control interior climate in buildings, which can reduce the energy consumption and improve thermal ...
Trends in Precipitable Water and Relative Humidity in China: 1979–2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nnual and seasonal trends of precipitable water (PW) and relative humidity (RH) at 850, 700, and 500 hPa are studied using the data from 106 radiosonde stations over China during the period 1979?2005. Analysis shows evidence ...
Neural Network Analysis of Chloride Diffusion in Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Chloride diffusion is one of the major causes of deterioration of concrete structures. A large amount of research has been conducted to study the chloride diffusion of concrete, both theoretically and experimentally. Because ...
Observed Characteristics of Hail Size in Four Regions in China during 1980–2005
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The climatology and long-term trend of hail size in four regions of China are documented for the period of 1980?2005 using the maximum hail diameter (MHD) data obtained from the Meteorological Administrations of Xinjiang ...
Behavior and Modeling of Circular Large Rupture Strain FRP-Confined Ice under Axial Compression
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The application of concrete is severely limited in construction in cold areas. However, the local ice has functioned as a potential substitute for concrete for a long time. In order to make efficient use of ice to overcome ...
Bending Toughness and Calculation Model of Ultrahigh-Performance Concrete with Hybrid Micro- and Nanofillers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Superfine stainless wires (SSWs) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/nano SiO2-coated TiO2 (NTs) were used as hybrid micro- and nanofillers to toughen reactive powder concrete (RPC) in this paper. The multiscale synergistic ...
