Spatiotemporal Vulnerability Analysis of Large-Scale Infrastructure Systems under Cascading Failures: Case of Water Distribution Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Large-scale water distribution networks (WDNs) are vulnerable to internal faults and external attacks. When exposed to various types of natural or artificial disasters, a glitch may trigger cascading failures and even ...
A Scenario-Driven Fault-Control Decision Support Model for Disaster Preparedness Using Case-Based Reasoning
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To reduce disaster response failures, controlling disaster preparedness faults is essential. Emergency management departments should analyze the lack of capability as soon as an early warning is released and make adaptive ...
Vibration Characteristics of Functionally Graded Fractional Derivative Viscoelastic Fluid–Conveying Pipe with Initial Geometric Defects
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A viscoelastic constitutive model constructed with fractional derivatives can accurately describe the mechanical phenomena caused by materials with time-dependent and memory properties. Using this model, the vibration ...
Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Thermal Cycling Test in Electronic Packaging
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Interfacial failure under thermal cycling conditions is one of the main concerns in package design. To minimize such failure in multi-layered electronic assemblies and packages, it is important ...
