Structural topology optimization considering complexity
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
As topology optimization is a free-form approach to optimizing structural layout, it has a tendency to design structures that are topologically complex. In large-scale structures, this complexity drives construction costs ...
Process systems engineering for transforming industrial flares into a source of energy by managing uncertain abnormal situations
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Advancement in technology always influences the world energy market by making excess to the valuable untapped resources. Profound research on potential unexploited/waste energy can lead the world to a new direction of ...
Study on the use of low field nuclear magnetic resonance for detecting asphalt aging
(
CRC Press/Balkema
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Authors of this paper recently introduced the application of Low Field Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (LF-NMR) to evaluate the aging state of asphalt mix samples. This method was able to determine the aging trends of asphalt ...
Soil-concrete interface properties subjected to temperature changes and cycles using direct shear tests
(
American Society of Civil Engineers Library (ASCE Library)
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Geothermal foundations (energy piles) combine the structural function of deep foundations with the ground source heat exchangers to transfer geothermal energy to superstructures. The intermittent operation of the geothermal ...
Computational study on the nanotubes formation between olsalazine and β-cyclodextrin
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Interests in cyclodextrin-derived nano-assembled supramolecular systems have recently grown notably [1,2].
Cyclodextrins are a family of oligosaccharides that possess very characteristic features of conical shape with ...
The many benefits of annotator rationales for relevance judgments
(
International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
When collecting subjective human ratings of items, it can be difficult to measure and enforce data quality due to task subjectivity and lack of insight into how judges arrive at each rating decision. To address this, we ...
