The slope protection framework developed using recycled railway sleepers offers a novel sustainable solution for protection. However, this has been inadequately reported, and its force deformation, protective effect, the bonding characteristics between are still unclear. project of sleeper embankment on Beijing–Tongliao was numerically analyzed three typical structures. bearing properties stabi...

Two dimensional slope profile morphometric investigation in a part of the land failure prone Garhwal region of the Lesser Himalaya, Tehri district, U. P., India, indicates that the landslip morphology is closely related to the dominant movement processes active in this terrain. Technique developed for the morphometric analysis of landslips involves the use of five morphometric indices. Each ind...

OBJECTIVES To investigate factors influencing the effectiveness of intensive sound masking therapy on tinnitus using logistic regression analysis. DESIGN The study used a retrospective cross-section analysis. PARTICIPANTS 102 patients with tinnitus were recruited at the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, China. INTERVENTION Intensive sound masking therapy was used as...

The dynamics of wind-driven coastal upwelling and downwelling are studied using a simplified dynamical model. Exact solutions are examined as a function of time and over a family of sloping topographies. Assumptions in the two-dimensional model include a frictionless ocean interior below the surface Ekman layer, and no alongshore dependence of the variables; however, dependence in the cross-sho...

This paper explains the procedure and results of an experiment on the relationship between the unconfined compressive strength and percent weight loss due to freeze and thaw durability test of laboratory compacted soil-cement specimens. The tests were carried out on soil cement mixtures of 10 different soil types. It was shown that the percent weight loss due to freeze and thaw durability test ...

The last decade has witnessed the rapid development of aeronautical engineering including all branches of applied sciences and technology dealing with aircraft and their support systems, which brings forward the higher request of safety, efficiency, and environmental protection. Modeling, control, and optimization of aeronautical engineering have played an increasingly important role in meeting...

Multi-terminal flexible DC distribution line faults develop rapidly, and power electronic equipment has a poor ability to withstand overcurrent. To solve the aforementioned problem, unit protection scheme based on improved Grey Slope Relational Analysis (GSRA) of fault currents is proposed address issue achieving balance between reliability speed relay for lines. This uses current measured at b...

The geological environment along the Sichuan-Tibet railway has characteristics of plate splitting, frequent disasters, complex topography, large cold climate, high and anoxia, etc. It is recognized by world as one most difficult projects so far. Based on construction tunnel entrance steep slope Railway, this paper conducts research construction, reinforcement protection slopes. integrated” syst...
