Optimizing Cement Content in Controlled Low-Strength Soils: Effects of Water Content and Hydration Time.

The Ethylene Diamine Tetra-acetic Acid (EDTA) titration test is widely used for determining cement content, but its reliability is influenced by the hydration process of cement, which is affected by factors such as water content and hydration time. Despite their importance, these factors have received limited attention in existing research. This study explores the relationships between the volume of titrant required for stabilization, cement content, water content, and hydration time.

Safety Evaluation for Fabricated Small Box Girder Bridges Based on Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process and Monitoring Data.

During the operation of fabricated small box girder bridges, which face safety issues such as structural degradation and failure, there is an urgent need to propose a safety evaluation method to cope with the possible risks. This article quantitatively evaluates the safety state of a fabricated small box girder bridge in Wuhan City based on Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and structural health monitoring (SHM) data. Firstly, the FAHP model is established, and stress, deformation, and temperature are selected as evaluation factors.

Early Warning for Continuous Rigid Frame Bridges Based on Nonlinear Modeling for Temperature-Induced Deflection.

Bridge early warning based on structural health monitoring (SHM) system is of significant importance for ensuring bridge safe operation. The temperature-induced deflection (TID) is a sensitive indicator for performance degradation of continuous rigid frame bridges, but the time-lag effect makes it challenging to predict the TID accurately. A bridge early warning method based on nonlinear modeling for the TID is proposed in this article.

Inherently Chiral Azonia[6]helicene-Modified β-Cyclodextrin: Synthesis, Characterization, and Chirality Sensing of Underivatized Amino Acids in Water.

The (P)- and (M)-3-azonia[6]helicenyl β-cyclodextrins exhibit L/D selectivities of up to 12.4 and P/M preferences of up to 28.2 upon complexation with underivatized proteinogenic amino acids in aqueous solution at pH 7.
