Abstract: A simple hydrologic balance model based on neutron‐probe measurements of soil moisture content was used to estimate evapotranspiration for alfalfa. The model results indicated large variations in the amount of estimated ...

Abstract: In response to the bridge damages observed in past earthquakes and the absence of practical analysis methods, a simplified analysis procedure named the fault rupture-response spectrum analysis (FR-RSA) method was developed ...

Abstract: Construction equipment constitutes a significant portion of investment in fixed assets by large contractors. To make the right decisions on equipment repair, rebuilding, disposal, or equipment fleet optimization to maximize ...

Abstract: ne of the most interesting attributes of Lightning Location Systems (LLSs) data is that they can be analyzed in several ways according to the objectives of the study. However, the quality of the data is governed by the ...

Abstract: This paper proposes an uncertain data clustering approach to quantitatively analyze the complexity of prefabricated construction components through the integration of quality performance-based measures with associated ...

Abstract: The kinematic design, development, and navigation control of a new autonomous mobile manipulator for unstructured terrain is presented in this work. An innovative suspension system is designed based on the kinematic synthesis ...
