Zagreb Eccentricity Indices of the Generalized Hierarchical Product Graphs and Their Applications by Zhaoyang Luo, Jianliang Wu

“…The first and second Zagreb eccentricity indices of G are defined as M1*(G)=∑v∈V(G)‍εG2(v) and M2*(G)=∑uv∈E(G)‍εG(u)εG(v), where εG(v) is the eccentricity of the vertex v in G and εG2(v)=(εG(v))2. Suppose that G(U)⊓H(∅≠U⊆V(G)) is the generalized hierarchical product of two connected graphs G and H. …”

Study on scour simulation and boundary condition conversion technology for a shallow foundation bridge by Gangping Fan, Huanzhe Li, Tianzhuo Wang, Jian Che, Xing Li, Chunyang Dou, Tong Wu

“…To prevent and mitigate scouring risks, this paper investigates the riverbed scouring characteristics of shallow foundation bridges under different hydrological conditions.The study found that under high water levels and flow velocities, scour depth significantly increased.Under extreme hydrological conditions, a horseshoe vortex forms at the base of the front end of the bridge pier, causing scour pits on both sides of the upstream face of the foundation, which is the main cause of foundation voids that first appear at 2580 s with a maximum scour depth of -2.51 m and a void area of 0.5%, continuing to increase over time.Based on simulated scouring data, this study proposes a method for converting boundary conditions from a scouring model to a mechanical model. …”
