Mechanical and Deformation Properties of Deep Foundation Pit Supporting System Subjected to Asymmetric Loadings
Due to the limitation of the terrain and environment condition, two sides of deep foundation pit often appear in different elevation level, which makes foundation pit subjected to asymmetric loadings. The mech...

Improving the estimate of wind energy input into the Ekman layer within the Antarctic Circumpolar Current
Based on the data and method offered by Liu et al. (2009), the direct wind and Stokes drift-induced energy inputs into the Ekman layer within the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) area are reestimated since ...

A proposed frequency spectrum for fully developed wind waves by revisiting P-M spectrum
It is generally believed that the equilibrium range of wind wave spectrum is in the form of the −4 rather than −5 power law. However, in the widely applied P-M spectrum the equilibrium range is given in the fo...
