This paper presents an improvement to a decomposition scheme for the accurate classification of polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (POLSAR) images. Using rotation coherency matrix minimize cross-polarized component, four-component scattering power is applied fully SAR It known that oriented urban area and vegetation signatures are decomposed into same volume mechanism in previous decompositions it difficult distinguish from oblique areas with respect direction illumination within...
This paper contains a detailed description on the crack controlling method for Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement (CRCP). A longitudinal originated from transverse cracks is considered as failure criteria in CRCP. As possibility of this cracking depends load transfer efficiency at crack, control, namely both width and spacing, thought key stone designing study consists following steps. Firstly new formulas calculating stress reinforcement have been derived. By using those, spacing can...
In order to evaluate whether concrete with recycled aggregate can be applied for structures, flexural loading tests of reinforced members were carried out. The coarse and the fine produced mainly from various a building structure as well 300 mm cubic specimens. properties aggregates, such strength, Young's modulus, shrinkage, creep shrinkage-induced stress depending on combination natural curing condition, water binder ratio, discussed based comparison virgin aggregates. Furthermore,...
It is important to monitor environmental changes of the Earth's cover by remotely sensed data. This paper analyzes seasonal a wetland modified polarimetric four-component scattering power decomposition method. The data sets analyzed here are L- and X-band fully synthetic aperture radar (POLSAR) data, which have been acquired NICT/JAXA airborne interferometric system in 2004. Since there existed deficiency currently adopted schemes that negative powers appear few pixels image analysis, we...
Graphene and graphene oxide (GO) are promising two-dimensional nanomaterials. An ultimate goal is to achieve large-scale bottom-up syntheses of perfect GO. However, controlled graphitic structures still remain challenges in chemistry materials science. Moreover, amorphous types have not received much attention. The present work shows syntheses, structures, applications GO analogues alternative the ideal ones. simultaneous multiple reactions two conjugated monomers provide polymer networks...
In this presentation, a new decomposition scheme of first using rotation the coherency matrix followed by four-component is presented. It shown airborne Pi-SAR data sets that oriented urban areas are clearly distinguished from volume scattering as double bounce objects matrix.
The effect of early age shrinkage on the diagonal cracking strength reinforced high-strength concrete beams is investigated, using thirty two with a distance from compressive fiber to centroid reinforcing bars (effective depth) 250 mm, 500 mm and 1000 made conventional high-shrinkage low-shrinkage concretes water-to-binder ratio 0.23. loading test results show that shear at 5% 18% lower depending effective depth compared beams, dependence apparently different between both. ultimate former...
Expansive additive is well known to be effective in compensating early-age shrinkage and the resultant induced stress reinforced high-strength concrete (HSC) members. On other hand, there have been few studies on numerical analysis methods for evaluating such stress, which are vital verify risk of cracking. The present study formulates a 3-dimensional finite element method as practical calculation based beam theory, both consider principle superposition linear stress-strain relationship...
Abstract Steelmaking slag is one of the most massive industrial by-products generated during steelmaking processes. This paper presents current production status and its potential to use as mineral aggregates in base/sub-base layer road pavement. The mechanical properties were confirmed by test method specified Vietnam specification. volume stability was conducted based on JIS A 5015-2018 (Japanese Industrial Standard: Iron steel for construction). From results, it that can satisfy all...

Diffraction field by a wide and thick slit on conducting screen has been analyzed. High frequency ray-mode coupling analysis utilized, the total diffracted or radiated in each region is considered as summation of successive modal radiation contribution due to original excitation incident plane wave. Our derived results are compared with those obtained other solutions, good agreement observed, validity our formulation confirmed.
