Abstract: Long-span bridges are the lifeline throats of urban transportation network. Deflection (i.e., deformation) behavior of long-span bridges is complex. It can be found from long-term monitoring ...

Each hole must be measured to the nearest yard/metre, for each set of tees from a permanent distance marker, in accordance with the procedures outlined in the Course Rating System and only by a ...

DALLAS — A local nonprofit and the Dallas County District Attorney have teamed up on a new project that attempts to better address homelessness and mental health in the community by keeping people out ...

Abstract: Vehicle longitudinal dynamics are shaped by tire characteristics. A number of empirical tire models have been proposed to explain longitudinal tire behaviors. These models typically explain ...

Many buildings appear flawless at handover. Finishes are clean, services appear functional, and all approvals are in place. Yet, once occupants move in and daily use begins, defects start to ...

Abstract The evaluation of the deflection in beams is an indispensable step of the structural design. Currently, many standard codes adopt the Branson’s model. However, the Branson’s model ...

In this paper, variational iteration (VIM) and parametrized perturbation (PPM) methods have been used to investigate non-linear vibration of Euler-Bernoulli beams subjected to the axial loads. The ...

The 208 R-type Continentals Bentley produced from 1951 to 1955 belong to that elite group of post-war classic cars that became ‘collectible’ almost from the moment they ceased production. Art, science ...
