RISModeling Transitions between Free Surface and Pressurized Flow with Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In several engineering applications, it is important to model flows that might transition between free surface and pressurized conditions. An explicit smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) model for incompressible fluid ...
Probabilistic Validation: Theoretical Foundation and Methodological Platform
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Addressing safety concerns in commercial nuclear power plants (NPPs) often requires the use of advanced modeling and simulation (M&S) in association with the probabilistic risk assessment (PRA). Advanced M&S are ...
Probabilistic Validation: Computational Platform and Application to Fire Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Nuclear Power Plants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recently, there has been an increasing use of advanced modeling and simulation in the nuclear domain across academia, industry, and regulatory agencies to improve the realism in capturing complex and highly spatiotemporal ...
Early-Age Fatigue Damage Assessment of Cement-Treated Bases under Repetitive Heavy Traffic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper aims to develop measures to minimize the early-age fatigue damage of prematurely opened cement-treated bases (CTBs) due to repetitive heavy traffic loading. The four-point bending test was used in this study to ...
Spatiotemporal Integration of an Agent-Based First Responder Performance Model With a Fire Hazard Propagation Model for Probabilistic Risk Assessment of Nuclear Power Plants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To advance emergency response (ER) modeling in probabilistic risk assessment (PRA), this research offers a new methodology that explicitly incorporates the spatiotemporal evolution of underlying physical and social phenomena ...
