The Influence of Lowered Air Temperature During Setting of Construction Mortars on their Technical Parameters
Abstract A season of a year, and resulting high or low air temperatures can harmfully affect technical parameters of mortars. The threat results from difficulty in setting and hardening. In Polish conditions there are often temperature fluctuations...

Stability under Seepage Flow Conditions of a Tunnel Face Reinforced by Bolts
Abstract We propose a computational method for assessing bolt reinforcement of the tunnel face in cohesive frictional soils and weak rocks under seepage flow conditions. The method is based on limit equilibrium factors and can be applied to...

Unifiable multi-commodity kinematic wave model
Abstract: In the literature, many kinematic wave models have been proposed for multi-class vehicles on multi-lane roads; however, there lacks an explicit model of unifiable multi-commodity traffic, in which different commodity flows can have...

Spatially resolved model for studying decarbonisation pathways for heat supply and infrastructure trade-offs
Abstract Heat decarbonisation is one of the main challenges of energy system decarbonisation. However, existing energy planning models struggle to compare heat decarbonisation approaches because they rarely capture trade-offs between heat supply,...

A car-accident rate index for curved roads: A speed choice–based approach
Abstract We employ as a speeding-accident rate index the probability of an accident caused by speeding on a curved expressway. This is defined as the probability that the actual speed of a car entering a curve exceeds the maximum safe speed of the...
