Reliability Analysis of Earth Dams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the present study, results of reliability analyses of four selected rehabilitated earth dam sections, i.e., Chang, Tapar, Rudramata, and Kaswati, under pseudostatic loading conditions, are presented. Using the response ...
Reliability Analysis of Buried Flexible Pipe-Soil Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Reliability analysis of the buried flexible pipe-soil system is performed from three different failure criteria: (1) deflection; (2) buckling; and (3) wall thrust. The response surface methodology is used to establish ...
Deflection Compensations for Tool Path to Enhance Accuracy During Double-Sided Incremental Forming
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Incremental sheet forming (ISF) is a flexible sheet metal forming process that enables forming of complex three-dimensional components by successive local deformations without using component-specific tooling. ISF is also ...
Influence of Spatially Variable Geotechnical Properties of MSW on Stability of Landfill Slopes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Probabilistic slope stability analysis of the municipal solid waste (MSW) landfill slope (height = 30 m and
Designing Medical Devices for the Developing World: Best Practices and Hands-on Approaches in D-Lab Health
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of medical technologies for developing countries is a multidisciplinary process. We describe a model process for an appropriate medical device design. D-Lab Health combines real world ...
Analysis and Design of Vibration Isolation System Using Open Trenches
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field vibration tests were carried out at a proposed site for the vibration testing room, and 2D numerical analysis using finite difference tool FLAC 5.0 was performed to suggest effective vibration isolation systems. In ...
