  • Publication number: 20240110479
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a multi-factor quantitative analysis method for deformation of a neighborhood tunnel. The method includes the following steps: analyzing monitoring data generated at a tunnel site; simulating collapse occurring at a shallow buried section of a tunnel; determining the degree of influence of each factor on the tunnel and a stratum; and determining quantitative influence of each factor on tunnel deformation. The present disclosure can not only provide an accurate theoretical basis for the construction of the shallow buried section of the small-distance tunnel, but also guarantee safety and cost saving during tunnel construction.

  • Publication number: 20100300078
    Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, an exhaust treatment system for reducing constituents in the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine is provided. A ceramic monolith is disposed within the exhaust treatment system and has exhaust flow passages extending therethrough that are defined by longitudinally extending walls therebetween. A first catalyst composition for catalytic reduction of oxides of nitrogen in the exhaust gas is applied to a first portion of the exhaust flow passages. A second catalyst composition for catalytic oxidation of hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen in the exhaust gas is applied serially downstream to a second, portion of the exhaust flow passages. The second catalytic composition is configured to reduce ammonia and hydrocarbon slip past the first catalytic composition.

  • Publication number: 20090044515
    Abstract: A system is provided for removing particulate matter from a diesel particulate filter. The diesel particulate filter includes at least one diesel particulate filter unit to filter particulate matter from diesel engine exhaust gas received from a diesel engine. The system includes a sensor positioned adjacent to at least one diesel particulate filter unit, where the sensor is configured to determine the extent of particulate matter trapped within the diesel particulate filter unit. The system further includes an engine controller coupled to the sensor and the diesel engine, where the sensor is configured to output a first alert signal to the engine controller upon determining that the trapped particulate matter exceeds a predetermined threshold. The engine controller is configured to increase the temperature of the diesel exhaust gas entering the diesel particulate filter upon receiving the first alert signal.
