An Open-Source Framework for Modeling RC Shear Walls Using Deep Neural Networks
( Hindawi Limited , 2023 , Article)Reinforced concrete (RC) shear walls macroscopic models are simplified strategies able to simulate the complex nonlinear behavior of RC shear walls to some extent, but their efficacy and robustness are limited. In contrast, ... -
Biodegradation Kinetics of Benzene and Naphthalene in the Vadose and Saturated Zones of a (Semi)-Arid Saline Coastal Soil Environment
( Hindawi Limited , 2019 , Article)Biodegradation is a key process for the remediation of sites contaminated by petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs), but this process is not well known for the (semi)-Arid coastal environments where saline conditions and continuous ... -
Carbon nanotube effect on the ductility, flexural strength, and permeability of concrete
( Hindawi Limited , 2019 , Article)Recently, remarkable types of carbon nanofilaments called carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have raised the interest of many concrete and cementitious composite researchers due to their significant mechanical, electrical, thermal, ... -
Drivers' perceptions of smartphone applications for real-time route planning and distracted driving prevention
( Hindawi Limited , 2019 , Article)Given the increasing importance and availability of traffic-related smartphone applications, understanding their potential use is vital, especially in developing countries. This research explores motorist perceptions of ... -
Effects of Fine-Grained Particles' Migration and Clogging in Porous Media on Gas Production from Hydrate-Bearing Sediments
( Hindawi Limited , 2019 , Article)The migration of fine particles in porous media has been studied for different applications, including gas production from hydrate-bearing sediments. The clogging behavior of fine particles is affected by fine particle-pore ... -
Evaluation of Waste Engine Oil-Rejuvenated Asphalt Concrete Mixtures with High RAP Content
( Hindawi Limited , 2018 , Article)The use of large proportions of reclaimed asphalt pavement is necessary to meet the increasing demand for road construction materials in a sustainable way. One of the challenges of using a greater percentage of reclaimed ... -
Group Gap Acceptance: A New Method to Analyze Driver Behavior and Estimate the Critical Gap at Multilane Roundabouts
( Hindawi Limited , 2018 , Article)The operations of multilane roundabouts, especially three-lane roundabouts, are unique and more complicated than any other type of roundabouts. This study aims to analyze driver behavior and estimate the critical gap at ... -
Modelling of Asphalt's Adhesive Behaviour Using Classification and Regression Tree (CART) Analysis
( Hindawi Limited , 2019 , Article)The modification by polymers and nanomaterials can significantly improve different properties of asphalt. However, during the service life, the oxidation affects the constituents of modified asphalt and subsequently results ...
