Gap Acceptance at Priority-Controlled Intersections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Critical gap is the threshold by which drivers in the minor stream judge whether to accept a gap. If the gap is larger than critical gap, drivers accept it and enter the intersection; otherwise, drivers reject the gap and ...
Excavation-Damaged Zone around Tunnel Surface under Different Release Ratios of Displacement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A tunnel excavation-damaged zone (EDZ) will gradually form with increasing release ratios of displacement (RRD) in the rock mass surrounding a tunnel. This paper presents a study of the longest subway tunnel in China, ...
Combustion Characteristics of HCCI in Motorcycle Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is recognized as an advanced combustion system for internal combustion engines that reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. This work studied ...
Development of Bi-Metal Anode Microtubular Supports for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Use of microtubular design in solid oxide fuel cells is considered to be ideal for small power application up to kW scale since it has shown to have high thermal shock resistance and high ...
Safety-Optimal Linearized Impulsive Rendezvous with Trajectory Uncertainties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Different from the current studies on the impulsive rendezvous which are mainly normal propellant-optimal or time-optimal designs, the safety-optimal impulsive rendezvous with consideration of practical trajectory uncertainties ...
