Abstract: In this work, a series of fully coupled three-dimensional thermomechanical finite-element analyses has been carried out to investigate the mechanical and thermal interaction effects induced in a small piled raft equipped ...

Abstract: Several traffic modeling tools are currently available for evacuation planning and real-time decision support during emergencies. This paper reviews potential traffic-modeling approaches in the context of wildland–urban ...

Abstract: This paper contains two parts. In the first part, a new set of diagnostic equations is derived for the third-order moments for a buoyancy-driven flow, by exact inversion of the prognostic equations for the third-order ...
