Abstract: AbstractThis study investigated the coupled effects of loading levels and seawater exposure duration on the mechanical properties and degradation mechanisms of solidified marine soft soil. Employing a solidifier composed ...

Abstract: AbstractThe suspended ceilings and masonry infill walls of reinforced concrete (RC) frames have been proven to be vulnerable to seismic damage. To characterize their collaborative seismic behavior, two sets of shake table ...

Abstract: Abstract. This article presents a comprehensive dimensional design and optimization strategy for a redundantly actuated space quadruped climbing robot. Our approach focuses on non-dimensional optimization, utilizing a ...

Abstract: A 3D finite element model of an internal and external tendon concrete simple-supported composite box girder bridge with corrugated steel webs was established by means of the composite element method. The mechanical behaviors ...

Abstract: We propose a novel hybrid robot with seven degrees-of-freedom (DOF) and variable topology for operation in space. Design specifications of the space robot are presented for the type synthesis of hybrid mechanisms. Based ...

Abstract: AbstractThe exigency to curtail last-mile delivery expenses is an intricate issue within the logistics industry. Owing to their flexibility, portability, and low cost, drones have great potential in the application of ...

Abstract: Carbon-fiber-reinforced paper-based friction material (CFRPF), as a new type of wet friction material for automatic transmission, was prepared by a paper-making process. The frictional response of ...

Abstract: AbstractThe performance of asphalt mixtures containing high dosages of recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) still presents challenges under wet and low-temperature conditions, particularly in terms of water stability and ...
