EVALUATION OF EARLY-AGE SHRINKAGE CRACKING BEHAVIOR OF PARTIALLY CONTINUOUS REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT USING RESTRAINED RING TEST

Evaluation of early-age shrinkage cracking behavior of partially continuous reinforced concrete pavement using restrained ring test

Continuously reinforced concrete pavement Seasonal Art (CRCP) has deficiencies such as high initial construction cost and irregular crack distribution.To address the shortcomings of CRCP, a rigid pavement structure called partially continuous reinforced concrete pavement (PCRCP) was proposed.Instead of reinforced concrete slabs in the field tests,

Historicizing the Prison in the History of Capitalism

The goal of this paper is to rethink the timeline through which scholars have conceived of the history of capitalism and imprisonment.Scholars including Oliver C.Cox, Fernand Braudel, and Giovanni Arrighi, among others, have presented a story Modern Art of capitalism centered around the Italian-city states, followed by the Netherlands, Britain, and

A unified approach for weakly supervised crack detection via affine transformation and pseudo label refinement

Abstract Consistent detection of cracks in engineering structures is essential for maintaining structural integrity.Deep neural networks perform well in this discipline, although their pixel-level labeling reliance increases labeling costs.Thus, weakly supervised learning methods have emerged.However, their labels are substantially worse quality th
