Stone and concrete revetments are widely constructed to control bank erosion and thus stabilize river banks. The consequences include accelerated erosion at unrevetted downstream channel sections and in-channel incision at revetted sections. The studied ...

Cavitation happening inside an inclined V-shaped corner is a common and important phenomenon in practical engineering. In the present study, the lattice Boltzmann models coupling velocity and temperature fields are adopted to investigate this complex col...

Large waves cause a great number of collapsed-ship accidents, resulting in the loss of many lives and properties. It has been found that most of these collapses are caused by encountering oblique waves. As a result, the ship structure experiences a compl...

Based on the unit life and death technology, the dynamic evolution process of soil loss is considered, and a pipe-soil nonlinear coupling model of buried pipelines passing through the collapse area is constructed. The analysis shows that after the third ...

More complex geological conditions could be encountered with the construction of urban subway projects. At present, many subway tunnels have been built in composite strata with upper soft and lower hard layers, but the presence of a cavity in the strata ...

In order to study the effect of the support mode of a staggered truss system on the continuous collapse resistance performance of a steel structure, four finite element models were established based on the bracing arrangement of a five-story steel frame ...

Structures inevitably suffer damage after an earthquake, with severity ranging from minimal damage of nonstructural elements to partial or even total collapse, possibly with loss of human lives. Thus, it is essential for engineers to understand the cruci...

The major problematic soils in semi-arid regions include expansive soils and collapsible soils. These two types of soils cause problems and are hazardous for buildings when moisture is introduced following a dry or semi-dry season. In order to assess the...

In reinforced concrete flat slab buildings, the transference of unbalanced moments in the slab?column connections usually results from the asymmetry of spans, vertical loads, and horizontal forces from the wind. The punching strength of the slab?column c...

Within the research project ITSAFE, two full-scale structures were built, one consisting of a single-storey, two-span, 7.00 × 14.00 m2 RC frame with a solid slab and another consisting of a two-storey, 7.00 × 7.00 m2 RC frame with solid slabs. In the two...
