A Strain Rate-Dependent Damage Evolution Model for Concrete Based on Experimental Results
Advances in Civil Engineering, 2021 There are various definitions of damage variables from the existing damage models. The calculated damage value by the current methods still could not well correspond to the actual damage value.

Effects of Different Types of Noise on Foreign Accent Adaptation [PDF]
, 2016 Understanding foreign-accented speech can be difficult. Comprehension can be further compromised by environmental noise. Previous research has shown that listeners are able to adapt rapidly to a foreign accent.

Control of Environmental Noise [PDF]
Journal of the Air Pollution Control Association, 1973 The article reviews the current state of knowledge of noise and how people respond to noise. Sources of community noise are discussed and existing federal legislation pertaining to noise is mentioned. Methods of reducing the noise impact on communities from aircraft, surface transportation, and industrial sites are presented. Interior noise in industry,
