RISExtratropical Forcing of Submonthly Variations of Rainfall in Vietnam
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAn EOF analysis is applied to high-resolution Vietnam Gridded Precipitation anomalies to support the notion that the characteristics of intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) of rainfall in Vietnam are distinct from ...
Hybrid Rigid-Deformable Model for Prediction of Neighboring Intervertebral Disk Loads During Flexion Movement After Lumbar Interbody Fusion at L3–4 Level
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Knowledge of spinal loads in neighboring disks after interbody fusion plays an important role in the clinical decision of this treatment as well as in the elucidation of its effect. However, controversial findings are still ...
Flexural Behavior of Nonposttensioned and Posttensioned Concrete-Filled Circular Steel Tubes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concrete-filled steel tubes (CFTs) have recently been used for columns and bridge piers, especially in seismic regions, for their enhanced strength and ductility over the conventional steel and concrete construction. This ...
Roca Spur Bridge: The Implementation of an Innovative Deicing Technology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The heated deck of Roca Spur Bridge is the first implementation in the world using conductive concrete for deicing. Conductive concrete is a concrete mix containing a certain amount of electrically conductive components ...
Stochastic Methods for Sequential Data Assimilation in Strongly Nonlinear Systems
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper considers several filtering methods of stochastic nature, based on Monte Carlo drawing, for the sequential data assimilation in nonlinear models. They include some known methods such as the particle filter and ...
Computerized Database for Maintenance and Management of Highway Bridges in Vietnam
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The deterioration of physical and serviceable conditions of highway bridges in Vietnam increasingly have become major social and technical concerns. Moreover, the maintenance management system applied currently is considered ...
Ground Shock Resistance of Mechanically Stabilized Earth Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple analytical method has been developed that characterizes plane shock wave propagation through reinforced soil and the dynamic interaction between soil and retaining wall panels. The shock wave attributable to an ...
Micromechanical-Based Shear Strength Equation Considering the Stress-State Effect for Unsaturated Soils
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Unsaturated soil shear strength is a crucial and useful parameter for predicting geostructure stability, soil erosion, seasonal variation, and land management. Unsaturated shear strength measurement, however, is frequently ...
A Simplified Method for Bearing-Capacity Analysis of Energy Piles Integrating Temperature-Dependent Model of Soil–Water Characteristic Curve
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The bearing resistance of energy piles in the presence of temperature effects has not been thoroughly investigated, preventing the perfecting of energy pile design methods. Quantifying the relationship between soil suction ...
Viscoplastic Cap Model for Soils under High Strain Rate Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A viscoplastic cap model of the Perzyna type was developed for simulating high strain rate behaviors of soils. An associative viscous flow rule was used to represent time-dependent soil behaviors. The viscoplastic cap model ...
