Bumpy Roads Ahead: America's Roughest Rides and Strategies to Make our Roads Smoother [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
These days, potholes and pavement deterioration make it a challenge to keep the wheel steady on America's roads and highways. More than a quarter of the nation's major urban roadways -- highways and major streets that are the main routes for commuters ...

Revisiting a long‐overlooked skull: Implications for the distribution of Dinodontosaurus brevirostris (Kannemeyeriiformes) in the Brazilian Triassic

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dicynodonts (Anomodontia: Dicynodontia) were one of the main groups of terrestrial tetrapods in Permian and Triassic faunas. In Brazil, the genus Dinodontosaurus is one of the most common tetrapod taxon in the Triassic Santa Maria Supersequence. This genus has a complex taxonomic history and is represented in the Triassic of both Argentina and

A Case Study on the Control of Large Deformations in a Roadway Located in the Du’erping Coal Mine in China

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
The effective control of large roadway deformations has always been a focus and difficulty in the coal industry. At present, a “bolt + cable + mesh + shotcrete” combined support structure has been widely used in China to support roadways with large ...

Study on Longitudinal Deformation Analysis and Support Technology of Surrounding Rock in Roadway Excavation

open access: yesMeikuang Anquan, 2020
To study the influence of excavation space effect on roadway excavation, Hoek’s displacement coefficient equation is used to describe the longitudinal deformation law of roadway surrounding rock under the spatial effect, and the relationship between the

Residential proximity to major roadways and prevalent hypertension among postmenopausal women: results from the Women's Health Initiative San Diego Cohort. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundLiving near major roadways has been linked with increased risk of cardiovascular events and worse prognosis. Residential proximity to major roadways may also be associated with increased risk of hypertension, but few studies have evaluated this

Cities, traffic, and CO2: A multidecadal assessment of trends, drivers, and scaling relationships [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Emissions of CO2 from road vehicles were 1.57 billion metric tons in 2012, accounting for 28% of US fossil fuel CO2 emissions, but the spatial distributions of these emissions are highly uncertain.

Failure mechanism of the coal wall at the working face based on an eccentric compression mechanical model

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
In this study, the nonuniform distribution of the bearing pressure in front of the coal wall has been revealed based on in situ monitoring data and numerical simulation results. Therefore, an eccentric compression mechanical model of the coal wall was established to study the deformation and failure characteristics of a coal wall. The slenderness ratio

Performance of a New Enhanced Topological Decision-Rule Map-Matching Algorithm for Transportation Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Indexación: Web of Science; ScieloMap-matching problems arise in numerous transportation-related applications when spatial data is collected using inaccurate GPS technology and integrated with a flawed digital roadway map in a GIS environment. This paper

Study on fracture parameter calibration and failure characteristics of rock with hole and crack

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The SIF and plastic zone equations for a single hole and crack have been derived. The model's failure state leads to the identification of four types of cracks. The plastic zone increases with increased brittleness and decreased crack length. Abstract Cracks within the surrounding rock of roadways significantly affect their stability and failure ...

Investigation on jet grouting support strategy for controlling time‐dependent deformation in the roadway

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2020
The efficiency of coal mining is seriously affected by roadway stability, as large time‐dependent deformation of roadway frequently occurs and needs to be maintained several times during its service life.
