Research on the Emission Characteristics of a Passenger Car Powered by Ethanol, Methanol, and Liquefied Petroleum Gas Under Real-World Running Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Alternative fuels have gained considerable attention because of their excellent sustainable energy conservation and emission reduction characteristics. In this study, emission characteristics and fuel economy of three ...
Thermodynamic Model for Sand-Incorporating Morphology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Particle shape, size, and size distribution (gradation) significantly influence the mechanical response of granular soils. This research introduces a thermodynamic model based on granular thermodynamics theory, validated ...
Whole Risk Assessment System and Management System of Urban Road Tunnel Operation Stage
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The index system and evaluation method of safety assessment in the operation stage are established to realize the safety risk assessment and management in the operation stage of an urban road tunnel. The index scores are ...
Temperature-Dependent SWCC Model for Unsaturated Soil
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) model considering the temperature effect is significant in precisely predicting the relationship between the matric suction and degree of saturation in unsaturated soils in ...
