Estimation of the Capacity of a Basic Freeway and Weaving Segment Under Traditional, Autonomous, and Connected Autonomous Vehicles, Using Oversaturated Traffic Condition Data
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Autonomous vehicles (AVs) and connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) will be the standard in transportation in the future. The use of such vehicles could minimize traffic oscillation and travel time and boost safety and ...
Image-Based Hybrid Structural Health Monitoring Through Artificial Intelligence
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Bridges are widely used in human life. Understanding structural performance, assessing structural conditions, and providing in-time decision are crucial components in structural health monitoring (SHM), to avoid catastrophic ...
Fracture Initiating Mechanism in Additively Manufactured 17-4 Stainless Steel
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Additive manufacturing provides exceptional geometrical freedom to the designers and enables the production of parts that cannot be made through subtractive processes. Defects in additively manufactured (AM) metals are ...
Artificial Intelligence-Empowered Structural Health Monitoring, Damage Diagnosis, and Prognosis of Metallic Structures
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
etallic structures are the key backbone of the society and economy, which are often subjected to different types of loadings resulting cracking, corrosion, and other material discontinuity, and affecting structural integrity ...
Hygrothermal Effects of Air Cavities Behind Claddings on Building Envelopes
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Air cavity behind claddings within building envelope provides an approach to mitigating building moisture-related issues as well as improving the building’s thermal performance. However, studies in literature commonly ...
Investigating the Influences of Ingredients, W/C Ratio and Dispersion Methods for CNT Modified Smart Concrete
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) have excellent electromechanical properties and can be added into cement using appropriate dispersive means to produce CNT-modified cement-based smart materials (CNTCS). This study investigates how ...
Multiscale Modeling of Conjugated Polymers Towards Predicting Their Multifunctional Behaviors
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Easy processability, tunable mechanical and optoelectronic properties, and the endless possibilities of molecular modifications enable conjugated polymers (CPs) to be used in a wide range of lightweight, low-cost, and ...
Bonding Performances of Epoxy-Based Composites Reinforced by Carbon Nanotubes
(North Dakota State University, 2022)
Epoxy resin has been exclusively used in many civil engineering applications such as adhesive joints and anti-corrosive coatings, but most of the usages of epoxy resin highly rely on a solid adhesive bonding between the ...
