RISModeling of Grain Shape Effect on Multiaxial Plasticity of Metallic Polycrystals
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A simplified nonincremental interaction law is used describing the nonlinear elasticinelastic behavior of FCC polycrystals proposed recently (AbdulLatif and Radi, 2010, “Modeling of the Grain Shape Effect on the ElasticInelastic Behavior...
Unraveling of BOT Scheme: Malaysia's Indah Water Konsortium
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Malaysia's privatization program, which began in 1983, has been praised by some, while others have been less impressed. This paper describes the return of a privatized infrastructure after seven years to government hands ...
Energetic and Exergetic Performance Evaluation of a Gas Turbine–Powered Cogeneration System Using Reverse Brayton Refrigeration Cycle for Inlet Air Cooling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A conceptual gas turbine–powered cogeneration system is proposed where a reverse Brayton refrigeration cycle is employed for compressor inlet air cooling that can reduce the inlet air temperature close to 0° C or ...

Abstract: A conceptual gas turbine–powered cogeneration system is proposed where a reverse Brayton refrigeration cycle is employed for compressor inlet air cooling that can reduce the inlet air temperature close to 0° C or lower, ...
Retention of Diesel Fuel in Aquifer Material
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Retention of diesel fuel in soil material from the Borden aquifer was investigated for five particle‐size fractions over the size range 75–500 μm and for different packing structures. The results showed variation of retention ...
Investigation of a Novel Solar Powered Trigeneration System for Simultaneous Production of Electricity, Heating, and Refrigeration Below Freezing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A solar powered trigeneration system consisting of tower solar collector, Kalina cycle with the heat exchanger, and ejector-absorption refrigeration cycle is proposed to produce refrigeration below freezing, electricity, ...
Development and Assessment of the Performance of a Novel Parabolic Trough Solar Collector-Driven Three-Stage Cooling Cycle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A gaseous flow is employed as heat transfer fluid (HTF) in a parabolic trough solar collector (PTSC) for simultaneous production of cooling at three different levels of temperature to meet the demands of air conditioning, ...
Conjugate Frame for Shear and Flexure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method is described for extending the conjugate beam concept to the solution of the combined effect of shear and flexure in frames and nonprismatic elements. A consistent sign convention is adopted. The method distinguishes ...
