Supplementing Current Visual Highway Bridge Inspections with Gigapixel Technology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Developing an efficient bridge condition evaluation procedure is economically critical to a state highway department; however, any adopted bridge condition approach needs to be accurate. A state highway department typically ...

The Effect of Ball Bearing Steel Structure on Rolling Friction and Contact Plastic Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The rolling friction, contact plastic deformation, and elastic limit were determined for SAE 52100 steel structures with retained austenite contents from zero to 18.4 per cent. The force necessary ...
Bridge Load Posting Based on Actual Arkansas Truck Traffic
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Bridge load posting limits are safety and economic decisions. Bridge load posting limits restrict truck traffic to ensure safety. Therefore, trucks that exceed bridge load posting limits are required to take alternate ...
Clouds, Precipitation, and Marine Boundary Layer Structure during the MAGIC Field Campaign
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he recent ship-based Marine ARM GCSS Pacific Cross-Section Intercomparison (GPCI) Investigation of Clouds (MAGIC) field campaign with the marine-capable Second ARM Mobile Facility (AMF2) deployed on the Horizon Lines cargo ...
Human Reliability Analysis-Based Method for Manual Fire Suppression Analysis in an Integrated Probabilistic Risk Assessment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fire is one of the most critical initiating events that can lead to core damage in nuclear power plants (NPPs). To evaluate the potential vulnerability of plants to fire hazards, fire probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) ...
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 ...
Alkali–Silica Reaction Identification and Remediation at Northwest Arkansas Regional Airport
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Stress Concentration Factors of Doubler Plate Reinforced Tubular T Joints
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The aim of this paper is to study the stress concentration factors of doubler plate reinforced tubular T joints subjected to various types of basic loading such as axial tension, axial compression, and in-plane and ...
Integrated Power Recovery Using Markov Modeling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The solution to a Markov chain modeling electric power supply to critical equipment in a typical four-loop pressurized water reactor following a loss of offsite power event is compared with a ...
