Experimental Study of Diagonally Stiffened Steel Plate Shear Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Upon recent research, steel plate shear wall (SPSW) is known as an effective lateral force resisting system in high seismic zones. However, there are still areas of concern in the design and construction of this system ...
Dynamic Modulus and Rutting Performance of As-Built Hot-Mix Asphalt Using Small-Scale Specimens
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The dynamic modulus of asphalt concrete (AC) mixtures is commonly measured using cylindrical specimens having a 100-mm diameter and a 150-mm height (full-size specimens). Testing as-built AC mixtures using this geometry ...
Improving the Rheological and Mechanical Properties of Oil Well Cement Slurries Using Multiple Chemical Admixtures for Enhancing Zonal Isolation: A Laboratory Evaluation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The study uses chemical and mineral admixtures to understand the critical processes affecting the cement slurry characteristics, including rheological properties, free water, compressive strength, and thickening time. Using ...
ATeX: A Benchmark for Image Classification of Water in Different Waterbodies Using Deep Learning Approaches
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Visual detection and classification of water and waterbodies provide important information needed for managing water resources systems and infrastructure, such as developing flood early warning systems and drought management. ...
Revisiting the Ambient and Postfire Strength of Channel-Type Shear Connectors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ability of steel-concrete composite floor systems to withstand loads relies on shear connectors, which prevent or limit slip between the two materials. This paper presents an experimentally validated numerical investigation ...
Coalitional Game Theory for Stormwater Management and Green Infrastructure Practices
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As global warming and climate variability bring about more frequent and intense rainstorms and accelerate sea level rise, our social and built environments are at heightened risk of flood-induced damages and costs. All ...
Breakdown of a Pressurized Fingerlike Crack in a Permeable Solid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the analysis of a lowviscosity fluid injection into a preexisting, fingerlike crack within a linear elastic, permeable rock, and of the conditions leading to the onset of the fracture propagation ...
Poroelastic Effects in Reactivation of a Fingerlike Hydraulic Fracture
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the transient pressurization of a preexisting, fingerlike crack in a poroelastic, permeable rock due to a fluid injection, the problem previously considered in the nonporoelastic reservoir context in the ...
Downscaling Precipitation for Local-Scale Hydrologic Modeling Applications: Comparison of Traditional and Combined Change Factor Methodologies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Future precipitation projections—and subsequent variation in simulated runoff response—can have a large impact on the planning and design of hydraulic structures and water systems and are, therefore, an important input in ...
Reliability Assessment of the Water Supply Systems under Uncertain Future Extreme Climate Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ncrease in global mean temperature and changes in rainfall amount, pattern, and distribution over the world are all indicative of climate change events. These changes alter the hydroclimatic condition of regions as well ...
