Ma, Xiaochuan (author), Wang, L. (author), Xu, Jinhui (author), Feng, Qingsong (author), Liu, Linya (author), Chen, Huapeng (author)Based on ordinary state-based peridynamic theory, a 2D peridynamic model has been established to investigate fatigue crack propagation in railheads. The proposed model is verified in terms of rail deformation under a quasi-static load and the ductile material-related fatigue failure model. Good agreements have been achieved between a finite...journal article 2022

Liu, Lian (author), Menenti, M. (author), Ma, Yaoming (author), Ma, Weiqiang (author)Snowfall and the subsequent evolution of the snowpack have a large effect on the surface energy balance and water cycle of the Tibetan Plateau (TP). The effects of snow cover can be represented by the WRF coupled with a land surface scheme. The widely used Noah scheme is computationally efficient, but its poor representation of albedo needs...journal article 2022

Ma, Lulu (author), Liu, Feng (author), Liu, D. (author), Liu, Y. (author)The application of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites is gaining increasing popu-larity in impact-resistant devices, automotives, biomedical devices and aircraft structures due to their high strength-to-weight ratios and their potential for impact energy absorption. Impact-induced high loading rates can result in significant changes of...review 2021

Liu, Lian (author), Ma, Yaoming (author), Menenti, M. (author), Su, Rongmingzhu (author), Yao, Nan (author), Ma, Weiqiang (author)Snow albedo is important to the land surface energy balance and to the water cycle. During snowfall and subsequent snowmelt, snow albedo is usually parameterized as functions of snow-related variables in land surface models. However, the default snow albedo scheme in the widely used Noah land surface model shows evident shortcomings in land...journal article 2021

Hu, Feng (author), Ma, Lin (author), Zhan, X. (author), Zhou, Yinzuo (author), Liu, Chuang (author), Zhao, Haixing (author), Zhang, Zi Ke (author)The study of citation networks is of interest to the scientific community. However, the underlying mechanism driving individual citation behavior remains imperfectly understood, despite the recent proliferation of quantitative research methods. Traditional network models normally use graph theory to consider articles as nodes and citations as...journal article 2021

Ma, H. (author), Psychas, D.V. (author), Xing, Xuhuang (author), Zhao, Qile (author), Verhagen, S. (author), Liu, Xianglin (author)The tropospheric delay is one of many error sources that affect the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) positioning solutions. The widely used troposphere models assume a homogeneous atmosphere so that only the zenith delay needs to be determined and is mapped through an elevation-dependent mapping function. This procedure is to reduce...journal article 2021

(author)This study investigated the deterioration of a lubricant-infused anodic aluminium oxide surface in a 1 M NaCl solution for ∼200 days. Direct observation by cryo-SEM and quantitative analyses by UV spectroscopy and EIS revealed that the long-term deterioration of the lubricant-infused surface was divided into two stages: the surface-adhered...journal article 2021
