Abstract Cast iron alloys with low production cost and quite good mechanical properties are widely used in the automotive industry. To study the mechanical behavior of a typical ductile cast iron (GJS-450) with nodular g...

Field case studies after earthquake show that pile foundation can be severely damaged by bedrock fault movement. The failure mechanism of this type of foundation damage is not yet fully understood. Centrifuge modeling of...

Four groups of centrifugal model tests are performed to investigate the failure mechanisms of embankment on inclined soft foundation reinforced by CFG piles. The tests simulate four kinds of grounds: natural inclined sof...

To study the deformation, failure and long-term stability of soft surrounding rock (mudstone) tunnel anchorage under heavy loads, the Changjiang River Bridge under construction is taken as an example, in which 1∶30 red...

Abstract This paper proposes a gradient conformal design technique to modify the multi-directional stiffness characteristics of 3D printed chiral metamaterials, using various airfoil shapes. The method ensures the integr...

Previously obtained calculation data on the dependence of dynamic characteristics (lattice parameter (a) and Debye temperature ΘD) and experimental data on kinetic characteristics (resistivity ρ and mean free path of e...

For the expansive soils of Nanning in Guangxi province of China different drying environments are acquired to test the shrinking characteristics and water retention by setting different temperature and humidity condition...

Abstract Complicated tribological behavior occurs when human fingers touch and perceive the surfaces of objects. In this process, people use their exploration style with different conditions, such as contact load, slidin...

Abstract Shell-infill structures comprise an exterior solid shell and an interior lattice infill, whose closed features yield superior comprehensive mechanical performance and light weight. Additive manufacturing (AM) ca...

Basalt fiber is a kind of inorganic material, which is effective and environmentally friendly. Basalt fiber concrete has important mechanical advantages to control the deformation of soft rock tunnels because it has func...

Abstract Seismic anisotropy, observed in the lowermost mantle near Large Low‐Shear‐Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs), is likely caused by strong deformation from mantle flow interacting with these regions and/or plume form...

Vanadium oxide thin films were fabricated using a multi-step deposition process involving magnetron sputtering and sequential annealing. The structural, vibrational, and nanomechanical properties of the films were invest...

Uplift in the broken Andean foreland of the Argentine Santa Bárbara System (SBS) is associated with the contractional reactivationof basement anisotropies, similar to those reported from the thick-skinned Cretaceous-Eoc...

For the molten pool behavior in K-TIG welding, the Level-Set method was used to track the changes in the free surface of the molten pool, and a two-dimensional transient numerical calculation model for stationary welding...

The article describes the methodology for experimental studies of an arch made of high-strength rapid-hardening concrete, presents the results of the studies in tabular form, and describes the mechanical characteristics ...

Abstract The current paper is based on a case study conducted at an industrial facility in Egypt, which is responsible for processing greenhouse structures. Steel tie rods play a vital role, as they prevent the truss fra...

Abstract In this work, measuring capabilities of a Sagnac Interferometer-based Distributed Optical Fiber Sensor (DOFS) system are demonstrated by comparing its results to a conventional amplitude-based Distributed Acoust...

Abstract Water-based lubrication is an effective method to achieve superlubricity, which implies a friction coefficient in the order of 10−3 or lower. Recent numerical, analytical, and experimental studies confirm that...

Viscoplastic deformation of mantle rocks produces crystal preferred orientations (CPO or texture) of olivine and, by consequence, an anisotropic mechanical response for subsequent deformation events. Olivine polycrystals...

Polyisoprene (PI), whether naturally or synthetically produced, is used in rubber compounds for many applications, such as tires, belts, and shoes. The effect of Nano ternary silica (NTS) addition on the thermal and mech...

Abstract By studying the effects of geometric precision on kinematic accuracy, an error mapping model has been established, based on the hypothesis that a motion pair and its installation surface are rigid. However, when...

Railway transportation is the main artery of the national economy, developing towards high speed, heavy load, and complex application environments. The performance and service safety of critical load-bearing components o...

Abstract The 2023 Gansu Jishishan MS 6.2 earthquake provides seismological evidence for investigating the origin and evolution of the Lajishan fault zone. To better understand the connection between this tectonic evoluti...

Based on the Winkler foundation model, the interactions of the frame structure, strip basement and soil foundation are simplified as a shear-flexural beam on elastic foundation. The different construction distances are c...
