Abstract: The dependence between spatiotemporally varied rainfall and watershed hydrology has long been recognized and studied using either synthetic or real storms/watersheds. To examine the relationship, the authors apply the storm ...

Abstract: Computer vision based on machine learning theory has been widely used in the surface damage detection of concrete structures, but the characterization of internal damage in concrete still remains a challenge for researchers. ...

Abstract: Surface roughness is a critical indicator to evaluate the quality of 4H-SiC grinding surfaces. Determining surface roughness experimentally is a time-consuming and laborious process, and developing a reliable model for ...

Abstract: Abstract The unclear relationship between shield tunneling parameters and upper cutting slurry pressure poses a significant challenge in maintaining excavation face stability for large-diameter slurry shields. Existing ...

Abstract: Diamond has attracted extensive attention from many scholars due to its characteristics, whereas the high-efficiency and ultra-low damage machining regarding diamond is still a bottleneck restricting its applications. ...

Abstract: AbstractSilt subgrade is often deformed and damaged due to poor water stability, which poses a threat to the safe operation of highways. To address these issues, a new nanotype hydrophobic material (NT-HM) was synthesized ...

Abstract: Abstract. Fixed-abrasive lapping has been widely applied in the precision machining of hard and brittle materials. Its well-controlled abrasive motion and dominant two-body removal mechanism enable superior surface quality. ...

Abstract: Thermal management system (TMS) plays an essential part in improving the safety and durability of the battery pack. Prior studies mainly focused on controlling the maximum temperature and temperature difference of the ...
