In river freeze-up periods, small disc-shaped frazil ice forms during supercooling in turbulent river flow. Under continuous cooling, these particles collide and freeze to form frazil flocs and entrain suspended sediments. Sediment-laden flocs might rise to the surface and freeze into frazil...

In the industrial modular construction, the fabrication shops, module assembly yards and construction field usually are adjacently located and viewed as the “site”. The offshore sourcing of materials and prefabrication expands the site scope from local into global; hence, the site can be regarded...
