Connection Characteristics and Hierarchical Structure of China’s Urban Network-Based on the Communications Technology Service Industry by Hailong Liu, Yu Zhang, Ziyu Sang, Weiqiao Wang, Liping Zhang, Man Li

“…The results show that: (1) cohesion of urban networks in China is weak and resource sharing is low. (2) From west to east, the urban network forms a multilevel diamond structure in the periphery, a parallelogram structure in the semiperiphery, and a triangle structure in the center. (3) The spatial distribution of cohesive subgroups is scattered, disobeying the first law of geography. By constructing sub-networks and a comprehensive network, the subnetworks that dominate China’s urban networks were identified and their typical characteristics described. …”

Influence of Particle Size Distribution on the Critical State of Rockfill by Gui Yang, Yang Jiang, Sanjay Nimbalkar, Yifei Sun, Nenghui Li

“…It was observed that the intercept and gradient of the critical state line in the e−p′ plane decreased as the grading broadened with the increase in particle size while the gradient of the critical state line in the p′−q plane increased as the particle size increased. A power law function is found to appropriately describe the relationship between the critical state parameters and maximum particle size of rockfill.…”
