Using the verified case of the carbon benefit, carbon efficiency, and sustainable value flow chart model established in this study, the company will be able to reduce costs by decreasing the material consumption and energy per unit output, and thereby gain a competitive advantage. The model can ...
Engineering fields such as oil well fracturing, mining rock fracturing, protection under explosion and other catastrophic natural phenomena such as earthquakes and rock bursts are almost always related to rock fracture and stress wave propagation in rocks under impact loads. Common geological hazards such...
Figure 3. Main steps of the microfabrication process flow-chart. Fabrication starts by thermally growing 500 nm thick oxide for the electrical insulation of the metal paths. The TiN/Al stacks were rf-sputtered with target thicknesses of 50 nm/500 nm, respectively. A plasma etching of the Ti...
For this reason, this paper employs the novel asymmetric Loushui River Bridge located in Enshi, China, as its engineering background. The FE model was established using ANSYS and then validated. This investigation simulated the different construction stages on-site and designed several working conditi...
Structural engineering problems are influenced by several factors and are not repetitive. Before the enhancement in the artificial intelligence (AI) field, different classical models, including linear regression and nonlinear regression, were developed by engineers. These methods are not certain, and one...
Figure 2. Flow chart of the research process. 2.1. Flexural Strength Test Flexural strength was tested by three-point bending tests using the Cometech QC-508M2 (Cometech Testing Machine, Taichung, Taiwan) testing machine with an opening width of 20 mm, initial gripping force of 1 N, and ...
The water utilized in the experiments was clean tap water that was readily available in the civil engineering lab at FH Erfurt. The natural coarse aggregates provided by the Amagard company were river gravel. The gravel size ranged from 16.0 to 4.0 mm, and the fine aggregates used in the...
