Seismic Performance Assessment of Wide Pile-Supported Wharf Considering Soil Slope and Waveform Duration

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Pile-supported wharf (PSW) is one of the primary port structures and is often damaged by earthquakes. To mitigate the risk of seismic damage to a PSW, its seismic performance should be thoroughly assessed. This study aimed to examine the impact of ground

Experimental and Numerical Evaluation of Residual Displacement and Ductility in Ratcheting and Shakedown of an Aluminum Beam

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Safety assessment of structures can be obtained employing limit design to overcome uncertainties concerning actual response due to inelastic constitutive behavior and more generally to non-linear structural response and loads’ random variability.

Research and Application of a Seismic Damage Classification Method of Concrete Gravity Dams Using Displacement in the Crest

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
Concrete gravity dams are one of the most common water retention structures, some of which are located in seismically active regions. Determination of damage level after earthquakes plays an important role in assessing the safety behavior of concrete ...

Residual Displacement Demand Evaluation from Spectral Displacement

open access: yesTeknik Dergi, 2019
 In this study, residual displacement demands are investigated for SDOF systems with period range of 0.1-3.0 s for near-field and far-field ground motions. The effects of stiffness degradation and post yield stiffness ratio on residual displacements are investigated.

Condition assessment of concrete piers subjected to impact load using fiber optic sensing

open access: yesCase Studies in Construction Materials, 2022
A novel strategy for condition assessment of concrete piers subjected to impact load is presented in this article. The method of estimating residual displacement (lateral displacement and rotation angle) of concrete piers using long-gauge fiber optic ...

Residual oil evolution based on displacement characteristic curve

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2020
The purpose of this study was to determine the displacement and dynamic distribution characteristics of the remaining oil in the two development stages of water flooding and subsequent alkaline surfactant polymer (ASP) flooding. The well pattern types in

Thickness of residual wetting film in liquid-liquid displacement

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2011
Core-annular flow is common in nature, representing, for example, how streams of oil, surrounded by water, move in petroleum reservoirs. Oil, typically a nonwetting fluid, tends to occupy the middle (core) part of a channel, while water forms a surrounding wall-wetting film. What is the thickness of the wetting film?
