Abstract: Mineral dissolution is a common chemomechanical digenetic process in geological systems. The penetration resistance in sediments that have experienced dissolution is studied using a laboratory-scale cone penetration test ...

Abstract: In this study, a three-dimensional numerical model was developed based on a modal analysis and substructure method. The devised model was employed for an evaluation of the dynamic response of a bottom-mounted platform with ...

Abstract: One of the purposes of using four-dimensional (4D) computer-aided design (CAD) system is to express numeric construction schedule data into a visual format. While existing 4D CAD systems are appropriate for building projects ...

Abstract: AbstractThe construction industry is one of the high-risk industries. One of the reasons why the construction industry is risky is that it involves a mix of different types of work and different types of workers. These ...

Abstract: The small-strain shear modulus depends on stress in uncemented soils. In effect, the shear-wave velocity, which is often used to calculate shear stiffness, follows a power equation with the mean effective stress in the ...

Abstract: Producing adequate lift plans for a transfer operation system (TOS) used in irregularly shaped high-rise building constructions is a more complex task than for an all-floor lift operation system. In the TOS, a resource ...

Abstract: Many deep learning technologies have been applied to the Earth sciences. Nonetheless, the difficulty in interpreting deep learning results still prevents their applications to studies on climate dynamics. Here, we applied ...

Abstract: his study presents the dependency of the simulation results from a global atmospheric numerical model on machines with different hardware and software systems. The global model program (GMP) of the Global/Regional Integrated ...
