Through slow cooling experiments at a rate of 0.05 °C s −1 on hot‐rolled and homogenized samples for 1, 2, 4 h, combined with analysis using optical microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction, probe X‐ray microanalysis, the evolution banded structure, austenite grain size, element segregation is studied. The following conclusions are drawn: During process, within two‐phase region temperature range, proeutectoid ferrite nucleates grows in regular pattern, ultimately forming structure...
Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SuDS) are known to help mitigate flooding whilst simultaneously delivering other positive outcomes, such as the provision of environmental, economic, educational, and business benefits. Despite this, there has been a relatively low uptake SuDS in new developments even less an opportunities for retrofitting existing buildings. A major barrier lack understanding regarding value benefits provided by SuDS. This study presents appraisal costs derived from...
The city of Birmingham has experienced a number significant flooding events in the past two decades. impacts these flood include physical damage to critical infrastructure, as well losses caused by business interruption and general disruption communities. Human can be life changing. This study identifies current challenges opportunities managing risk Birmingham, drawing on desk-based account management (FRM) practice diagnostic evidence. interrogation adopts use ‘flood resilience circle...
Wheel flats have become a major problem affecting the long-term service of railway systems. Wheels with create intermittent impact loads to trains and rails. This not only accelerates deterioration vehicle track components but also leads abnormal wheel-rail contact conditions. An effective method for detecting wheel conditions is urgently needed ensure operation provide guidance repair wheels. However, most previous researches used qualitative detection methods, hence been unable achieve...
Resilience is a multifaceted field of study that has been addressed by different disciplines and the subject extensive research.Despite this vast body research, there no agreement on single definition among researchers.Resilience in context flooding become major focus flood risk management policy reflected current strategy to mitigate effects flooding.Furthermore, recent times, increased attention given property level resilience as part an integrated approach management.Despite flooding,...
Purpose Health and safety in small construction firms is often neglected by owners leading to poor health performance unacceptably high fatality injury rates. A body of knowledge has established significant links between the motivational behaviours operatives towards safety. Motivation also considered as a key tool for improving operative productivity when experience safe worksites, they can carry out their work more productive manner. The purpose this research develop framework examine...
Purpose The Environment Agency estimates that one in six homes England (approximately 5.2m properties) are at risk from flooding and 185,000 commercial properties located flood-prone areas. Further, an estimate of 10,000 new built on flood plains yearly. UK has witnessed a significant increase events over the past 10 years. During this period, there been growing research attention into measures to mitigate effects flooding, including benefits deploying sustainable urban drainage systems...
Purpose Globalisation means that more and construction projects involve participants from different cultural backgrounds. Besides the obvious language barrier, people may also have faiths, assumptions behaviour norms which can do cause conflicts. This challenges previous approaches is creating a new context for industry. research aims to explore how practitioners work effectively in cross‐cultural situations. Design/methodology/approach The paper uses real‐life experience personal construct...
Purpose Despite the present focus on improving resilience of homes to flooding in UK flood risk management policy and strategy, a general measurement framework for determining levels does not exist. In light this, aim this study was develop means evaluate flood-prone from perspective homeowners'. Design/methodology/approach A quantitative research methodology employed, with empirical data obtained through postal survey homeowners who had experienced flooding. The responses received were then...
ABSTRACT Vinyl acetate was grafted onto poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers under electron‐beam co‐irradiation. Then, the products were hydrolyzed HCl solution to obtain PET‐ g ‐poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) fibers. Afterward, impart superior hydrophilicity and skin care, collagen immobilized ‐PVA with glutaraldehyde. The modified fabric characterized in terms of moisture regain, wettability, evaporation rate [Ev (%/h)]. degree alcoholysis grafting product more than 90% a 10% at 100°C for...
