New Insights into Annual and Semiannual Cycles of Sea Level Pressure
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ea level pressure (SLP) acts, on the one hand, as a ?bridge parameter? to which geophysical properties at the air?sea interface (e.g., wind stress and sea surface height) are linked, and on the other hand, as an ?index ...
Evaluating the Combined Effects of Weather and Real-Time Traffic Conditions on Freeway Crash Risks
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe study presented in this paper investigated the combined effects of environmental factors and real-time traffic conditions on freeway crash risks. Traffic and weather data were collected from a 35-km freeway ...
Study of Influence of Foreign Characters in Guide Signs on Legibility
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experiment was performed to investigate the legibility of guide signs with different language to discuss the effect of foreign characters added in guide signs on driver reaction time. Experimental signs were divided ...
Multiparameter Sensitivity Analysis of Flexural–Tensile Property of Basalt Fiber–Reinforced Asphalt Mixture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To evaluate the sensitivity of basalt fiber content, length-diameter ratio, and modulus to the flexural–tensile properties of fiber-reinforced asphalt mixture, the spatial random distribution of basalt fibers was realized ...
Properties of Fly Ash Geopolymer Concrete as Marine Artificial Reef Building Materials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The twenty-first century is known as the “century of the ocean.” Artificial reefs have been extensively studied and used worldwide as the main infrastructure of marine pastures. At present, research has been primarily ...
Reaction Mechanism of Active Al2O3 Groups in Geopolymers: A DFT Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Although the concept of geopolymers was proposed over 40 years ago, there still remains a lack of clarity regarding their atomic-level structure and formation. In this study, the Dmol3 quantum chemistry calculation ...
Safety Impact on Accesses in Two-lane Highways
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: On the basis of substantive investigations and data collection which includes the data of highway alignment, traffic volume and accidents, the quantitative impact of the accesses on safety performance of two-lane highways ...
Enhancement of Interfacial Thermal Conductance of SiC by Overlapped Carbon Nanotubes and Intertube Atoms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new way was proposed to enhance the interfacial thermal conductance (ITC) of silicon carbide (SiC) composite through the overlapped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and intertube atoms. By nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) ...

Improvement of Microbial-Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation Technology for Sand Solidification
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sand solidification technology is widely applied in engineering. This paper presents experimental methods to analyze the effect of adding urea to a culture medium for sand solidification. The results show that adding urea ...
