RISShort-Term Behavior and Design of Fiber-Reinforced Polymeric Slender Members under Axial Compression
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Presented in this paper are results of an experimental investigation pertaining to the short-term behavior of concentrically loaded fiber-reinforced polymeric composite slender members. Tested members had box and I-shape ...

Improving the Wear Resistance of Austenitic Alloys by Surface Treatment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The surface hardening of a number of different austenitic alloys by thermochemical treatment and their subsequent behavior to unlubricated sliding wear is described. It is shown that nitriding, ...
Behavior of Rock in Slopes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The behavioral modes to which a rock slope is susceptible are many and complex. This article discusses a long but not exhaustive list of common failure styles, highlighting observable characteristics that distinguish one ...
Watershed-Based Modeling with AGNPS for Storm Water Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A strategy for developing sediment transport information for storm water planning and management is described. The strategy links location-based and intensity-based development scenarios with potential water quality impacts ...
Structural Modeling of Dolos Armor Units
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The analysis of the structural integrity of a breakwater using concrete armor units in a physical model is presented for the first time. The key element in this analysis procedure is an instrumented dolos unit, which acts ...
Effect of Metal Composition on Carburizing of Steels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of metal composition on the diffusivity of carbon during carburizing several commercial steels has been investigated using electron probe microanalysis as well as hardness measurements ...
State Uncertainty Propagation in the Presence of Parametric Uncertainty and Additive White Noise
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The focus of this work is on the development of a framework permitting the unification of generalized polynomial chaos (gPC) with the linear moment propagation equations, to accurately characterize ...
Lunar Shelter Student Contest: Exciting Education for Civil Engineers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The First Lunar Shelter Student Contest was held in Albuquerque, N.M., on February 28 and March 1, 1994, as part of the activities of the Space 94—Engineering, Construction, and Operations in Space Conference and Robotics ...
Excavation Forces in Reduced Gravity Environment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When we return to the moon we will likely do so on limited budgets that will necessitate small, low-cost missions. Since the cost of transportation to the moon consumes upwards of 50% of the cost of an entire mission, one ...
