Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Recycled Concrete Coarse Aggregates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the flexural and shear behavior of reinforced concrete beams that use recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) as replacement for coarse natural aggregates (e.g., crushed stone, gravel). The experimental ...
An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation of Wave Propagation in Teflon and Nylon Tubing With Methods to Prevent Aliasing in Pressure Scanners
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate static and dynamic pressure measurements provide the feedback needed to advance gas turbine efficiency and reliability as well as improve aircraft design and flight control. During turbine testing and aircraft ...
A Study of Bulk Modulus, Entrained Air, and Dynamic Pressure Measurements in Liquids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate static and dynamic pressure measurements in liquids, such as fuel, oil, and hydraulic fluid, are critical to the control and health monitoring of turbomachinery and aerospace systems. This work presents a theoretical ...
Blowoff and Reattachment Dynamics of a Linear Multinozzle Combustor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes the coupled flow and flame dynamics during blowoff and reattachment events in a combustor consisting of a linear array of five interacting nozzles using 10 kHz repetition-rate OH planar laser-induced ...
Communication Factors Influencing Flood-Risk-Mitigation Motivation and Intention among College Students
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Guidance for Cost-Effective Selection of Pavement Marking Materials for Work Zones
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Pavement markings provide important information to motorists, especially in a work zone environment where alignments are often changed from what is typical. Unlike normal roadway applications, work zone pavement markings ...
What’s in a #Name? An Experimental Study Examining Perceived Credibility and Impact of Winter Storm Names
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe practice of naming winter storms has generated a large amount of discussion within the meteorology community of late. While storm naming has typically been reserved for tropical systems, some media organizations ...
Pressure Dependent, Infrared Emitting Phenomenon in Hypervelocity Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A series of hypervelocity impact experiments were conducted with variable target chamber atmospheric pressure ranging from 0.9 to 21.5 Torr. Using a twostage lightgas gun, 5.7 mg nylon 6/6 rightcylinders were accelerated ...
Revising Thermal Stresses in the TSRST for Low-Temperature Cracking Prediction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two methods are proposed to correct stresses measured with the thermal stress restrained specimen test (TSRST) due to specimen bending. The first method estimates the bending stress from the angle of rotation of the specimen ...
Constitutive Relations for Pressure Driven Stiffening in Poroelastic Tissues
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vascularized biological tissue has been shown to increase in stiffness with increased perfusion pressure. The interaction between blood in the vasculature and other tissue components can be modeled with a poroelastic, ...
