Abstract: Abstract A T-shaped assembled retaining wall comprises a wall panel and a side panel buried in the fill. It features a light structure, good retaining, convenient construction, excellent antioverturning, and good antislipping ...

Abstract: Uranium dioxide (UO2) is the typical fuel that is used in the current nuclear power plant; fission gas atoms are produced during and after the nuclear reactor operation; the fission gas atoms have a significant effect on ...

Abstract: Horizontal well drilling technology is widely used in the exploitation of petroleum and natural gas, shale gas, and geothermal resources. The temperature distribution of wellbore and surrounding formation has a significant ...

Abstract: Evidence theory has the powerful feature to quantify epistemic uncertainty. However, the huge computational cost has become the main obstacle of evidence theory on engineering applications. In this paper, an efficient ...

Abstract: For the reliability-oriented sensitivity analysis with respect to the parameters of input variables, by introducing the copula function to describe the joint probability distribution with dependent input variables, the ...

Abstract: Arch and serpentine structures are two fundamental structural forms with significant applications in various fields. When subjected to compressive loading at both ends, these structures undergo flexural-torsional post-buckling, ...

Abstract: This study designed and produced a special microsolder specimen (Sn3.8Ag0.7Cu) to equalize current density under stressing. The specimen was generated to avoid temperature gradient and thermal migration. The inelastic ...

Abstract: The sputtering of graphite due to the bombardment of hydrogen isotopes is crucial to successfully using graphite in the fusion environment. In this work, we use molecular dynamics to simulate the sputtering using the ...

Abstract: The high temperature in the horizontal section and bottom of a horizontal well has a significant impact on the performance of mud and the safety of drilling equipment. The high bottomhole temperature is lowered often by ...

Abstract: Abstract. In a low-speed wind tunnel facility, experimental research is conducted to investigate the heat transfer coefficient (hf) distribution on the surface of a full-film vane with shaped holes using the transient ...
