Effects of Grain Size and Treatment Methods on the Cementation of Bioimproved Calcareous Sand
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Calcareous sand, which is characterized by irregular morphologies and abundant intraparticle pores, poses difficulties for ocean construction. This study investigated the effects of microbially induced carbonate precipitation ...
Risk Assessment Methodology for a Deep Foundation Pit Construction Project in Shanghai, China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Risk assessment and risk management for deep foundation pit engineering are essential for quality and safety in civil engineering owing to the needs of urban construction projects. However, uncertainty and fuzziness continue ...
Atmospheric Dynamic and Thermodynamic Processes Driving the Western North Pacific Anomalous Anticyclone during El Niño. Part I: Maintenance Mechanisms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe western North Pacific anomalous anticyclone (WNPAC) is an important low-level circulation system that connects El Niño and the East Asian monsoon. In this study, the mechanisms responsible for the formation and ...
Atmospheric Dynamic and Thermodynamic Processes Driving the Western North Pacific Anomalous Anticyclone during El Niño. Part II: Formation Processes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn Part I, the authors showed that northerly anomalies associated with the Rossby wave response to El Niño heating anomalies in the equatorial central Pacific lead to the southward advection of low moist enthalpy ...
A Numerical Study of the Contact Mechanics and Sub-Surface Stress Effects Experienced Over a Range of Machined Surface Coatings in Rough Surface Contacts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper employs a rough-surface numerical elastic contact method designed to analyze Hertzian elastic contact effects of surface coatings. In particular the paper explores the differences in ...
Investigation on a Type of Flow Control to Weaken Unsteady Separated Flows by Unsteady Excitation in Axial Flow Compressors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: By solving unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations discretized by a high-order scheme, the results showed that the disordered unsteady separated flow could be effectively controlled by ...
