In order to study the seismic response of the embankment slopes with different reinforcing measures, shaking table tests were performed on three embankment slope models (i.e., unreinforced embankment slope, 2-layer reinforced embankment slope and 4-layer reinforced embankment slope). Wenchuan...

To reveal the dynamic behavior of a railway embankment slope subjected to seismic excitation, a shaking table model test was performed on a 1:8 scale embankment slope. Different types of seismic wave of differing amplitudes were applied to study the dynamic behavior of the embankment slope, and...

This paper presents the potential challenges of integrating wind farms into the future power systems in Taiwan. It first describes the developments of wind power in Taiwan and the basic criteria and general practices of connecting renewable energy resources to transmission and distribution...
