Field Reconnaissance of the October 23, 2011, Van, Turkey, Earthquake: Lessons from Structural Damages
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: On October 23, 2011, an earthquake (
Numerical Modeling of the Effect of Duration of Barotropic Forcing on Sea Strait Flow: Case Study of the Bosphorus Strait
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The straits connecting two large water bodies show very strong and highly stratified currents related to meteorological, morphological, and hydrodynamic conditions. The Bosphorus is one such strait, connecting the Black ...
Degradation of Acetate, Propionate, and Butyrate under Shock Temperature
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Experiments were performed to determine the degradation of acetate, propionate, and butyrate, and the maximum methanogenic activity of granular sludge from the thermophilic anaerobic digestion (55°C) of pure molasses under ...
Closure to “Degradation of Acetate, Propionate, and Butyrate under Shock Temperature” by Mustafa Öztürk (March/April, 1993, Vol. 119, No. 2)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
On the Study of a Probability Distribution for Precipitation Totals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Some of the probability distribution models for precipitation totals and their applications are briefly reviewed. The general properties of a probability distribution model which is a mixture of gamma and Poisson distributions ...
On the Singularities in Fracture and Contact Mechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Generally, the mixed boundary value problems in fracture and contact mechanics may be formulated in terms of integral equations. Through a careful asymptotic analysis of the kernels and by ...
Evaluation of Formability Under Different Deformation Modes for TWIP900 Steel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Automotive manufacturers always seek high strength and high formability materials for automotive bodies. Advanced high strength steels (AHSS) are excellent candidates for this purpose. These steels generally show a reasonable ...
Dynamics and Stability of Five-Axis Ball-End Milling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Being one of the most important problems in machining, chatter vibrations must be avoided as they result in high cutting forces, poor surface finish, and unacceptable part quality. Using stability ...
The Axisymmetric Crack Problem in a Nonhomogeneous Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the axisymmetric crack problem for a nonhomogeneous medium is considered. It is assumed that the shear modulus is a function of z approximated by μ = μ0 eαz . This is a ...
An Axisymmetric Crack in Bonded Materials With a Nonhomogeneous Interfacial Zone Under Torsion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study the mode III axisymmetric crack problem for two dissimilar homogeneous materials bonded through a thin layer of nonhomogeneous interfacial region is considered. The shear modulus ...
