RISAdvanced Aerodynamic Optimization System for Turbomachinery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To further improve the efficiency of turbomachinery, an advanced aerodynamic optimization system has been developed for the turbomachinery blade optimization design. The system includes parametric ...
Revisit of the Occurrence of the Kuroshio Large Meander South of Japan

Wind Interference Effects from One High-Rise Building and Similar Low-Rise Flat-Roof Buildings
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Wind tunnel tests in an open terrain were carried out to study interference effects on peak pressure coefficients of one low-rise flat-roof building due to one high-rise building and similar low-rise buildings. The results ...
Assessment of Second-Order Effect in Externally Prestressed Steel–Concrete Composite Beams
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Externally prestressed steel–concrete composite (EPSCC) beams in their deformed configuration are characterized by changes in the effective depth of external tendons. However, little information is available on this ...
One-Dimensional Consolidation of Multilayered Soil with Continuous Drainage Boundaries and Under Time-Dependent Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the practice of reclamation engineering, surcharge loading is gradually applied to preconsolidate soft clayed soil. The in situ drainage boundaries are usually not perfect and can be in a state between fully impermeable ...
Investigation of Suction Effects Due to Stress Release with Compacted MX80 Bentonite
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this study, the suction induced by stress release was investigated by measuring the suction of instantaneously unloaded MX80 bentonite specimens after wetting in an oedometer either under different vertical stresses or ...
Equivalent Static Wind Loads on Plate-Like Flat Roofs: Data-Based Closed Form
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Wind tunnel pressure tests on flat-roof buildings were carried out for three kinds of length-width ratio models in three types of terrain. Based on the fitted generalized force spectrum, the analytical expression of ...
On Reset of the Wind-Forced Decadal Kuroshio Extension Variability in Late 2017
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Decadal modulations of the Kuroshio Extension (KE) system between a stable and an unstable dynamic state in the western North Pacific have prevailed in the past three decades. This dominance of decadal variations is ...
Hierarchical Sliding Mode Control for the Trajectory Tracking of a TendonDriven Manipulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The tracking control of tendondriven manipulators has recently become a hot topic. However, the flexible elastic tendon introduces greater residual vibration, making it more difficult to control the trajectory tracking of ...
Wind-Induced Response and Equivalent Static Wind Loads on Single-Layer Saddle-Shaped Shells
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Saddle-shaped roofs are one typical kind of large span roofs, but there are few studies on the equivalent static wind load (ESWL) of saddle-shaped roofs, which is important for structural design. This study conducts wind ...
