Low-energy asphalt techniques, such as warm mix asphalt (WMA), combined with the rational consumption of geomaterials and waste recycling would promote more sustainable and energy-efficient asphalt pavements. In volcanic environments, a significant propo...

In this investigation, a U-shaped connection (U-C) was introduced for a prefabricated steel plate shear wall with beam-only connections. This design replaces a portion of shear bolts with tension bolts to enhance bolt efficiency and reduce the overall bo...

Large deformations can easily occur when tunneling through weak surrounding rock with high underground stresses. Under high-stress environments, the surrounding rock stores a large amount of strain energy, and the strain energy stored in the soft and wea...

In some subsurface urban development projects, bedrock faults intersecting with the tunnel path are inevitable. Due to the high costs of urban tunnel projects, it is necessary to study the behavior of such concrete structures under fault movement risks. ...

An analysis of the discarded drill pipes that had been used in wedge grips has revealed that the main reason for pipe rejection is the reduction of a pipe wall as a result of plastic deformations, due to damaging the pipe surface by the die teeth. The lo...
