An Elastic Analysis of Multiroll Endless Web Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A procedure for analyzing a multiroll endless web system is presented. The web is divided into endless, parallel strips which are longitudinally elastic and possess shear rigidity. The strips ...
Modeling Storm-Induced Current Circulation and Sediment Transport in a Schematic Harbor
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A two-dimensional dynamical model is established to simulate current circulation and sediment transport induced by storm surges in a schematic harbor. The model accounts for both settling and resuspension processes of ...
Numerical Investigation of Wake Control Strategies for Maximizing the Power Generation of Wind Farm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to maximize the total power generation of a wind farm, several control strategies based on tilt angle, yaw angle, and cone angle were investigated numerically using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. ...
Evaluation Approach of the Slope Stability Based on Deformation Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Once a slope is led to the limit equilibrium state using the strength-reduction method, the displacement contours located near the critical slip surface are quite close. The critical slip surface is composed of the points ...
Modeling the Effects of Speed Limit, Acceleration, and Deceleration on Overall Delay and Traffic Emission at a Signalized Intersection
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a microscopic spatial-temporal method to capture the vehicle movement trajectories at an isolated intersection. A bi-objective programming model is presented to minimize the overall delay and emission ...
Performance Tests and Microchain Model Validation of a Novel Kind of MR Fluid with GO-Coated Iron Particles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Magnetorheological (MR) fluids are suspensions of microparticles or nanoparticles dispersed in carrier fluids, which contain iron particles, carrier fluids and additives. In this study, a novel kind of composite iron ...
Modeling Urban Spatial Expansion Considering Population Migration Interaction in Ezhou, Central China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Against the background of rapid social and economic reform, urban space systems are unceasingly reconstituted. Population migration, which is a popular social phenomenon, has become an important driving force affecting ...
Modeling Urban Spatial Expansion Considering Population Migration Interaction in Ezhou, Central China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Against the background of rapid social and economic reform, urban space systems are unceasingly reconstituted. Population migration, which is a popular social phenomenon, has become an important driving force affecting ...
Pattern of Wintertime Southern Rainfall and Northern Pollution over Eastern China: The Role of the Strong Eastern Pacific El Niño
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Air quality over the North China Plain (NCP) and rainfall over southern China exhibit robust and correlated interannual variations during winter from 1979 to 2018. A correlation coefficient of 0.7 between the PM
The Impact of Convective Overshooting on the Thermal Structure over the Tibetan Plateau in Summer Based on TRMM, COSMIC, Radiosonde, and Reanalysis Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
