Evaluation of Long-Term Wastewater Treatment Performances in Multi-Soil-Layering Systems in Small Rural Communities

Multi-soil-layering Transport Chairs (MSL) wastewater treatment systems consist of soil units (soil mixture blocks, SMB) arranged in a brick-like pattern surrounded by permeable layers of zeolite or alternating particles of homogeneous sizes that allow for a high hydraulic loading rate.This study evaluated the performances of MSL systems that have

Modeling on Actuation Behavior of Macro-Fiber Composite Laminated Structures Based on Sinusoidal Shear Deformation Theory

A new piezoelectric composite, macro fiber composite (MFC) is recombined with piezoceramic fibers, an epoxy resin basal body, and an interdigitated electrode.It has been widely applied in vibration reduction and deformation control of thin-walled structures, due to its great deformability and flexibility.Research on its actuation performance is mos
