RISPhase Field Characterization of Rock Fractures in Brazilian Splitting Test Specimens Containing Voids and Inclusions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The Brazilian splitting test is a broadly adopted testing procedure for characterizing the tensile strength of natural rock or rock-like material. However, the results of the Brazilian test on specimens with naturally ...
Viscoelastic Influence on Dynamic Properties of PCB Under Drop Impact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic properties of printed circuit board (PCB) assembly under drop impact are investigated when viscoelasticity of substrate materials is considered. The main materials of a PCB substrate are ...
Analyses of the Strength Characteristics of Solidified Desert Aeolian Sandy Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The strength characteristics of solidified desert aeolian sandy soil are investigated to expand its scope of application in road engineering. Its suitability as sub-base of pavement structure is analyzed in terms of its ...
Exploring Financial Decision-Making Approaches for Use in Earthquake Risk Decision Processes for Ports
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the main topics in the Georgia Tech/NEES Grand Challenge project “Seismic Risk Mitigation for Port Systems” is the evaluation of seismic risk management approaches for ports. One subtopic of this main topic is the ...
Spatial Distribution, Contamination Feature, and Health-Risk Assessment of Heavy Metals and Metalloids in Farmland Soil in the Hunan Province, China
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the content characteristics of heavy metals, metalloids, and nutrients in farmland soil in the entire Hunan Province, China. In addition, the spatial distribution features, ...
Board Level Drop Test Analysis Based on Modal Test and Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Solder joint reliability in drop test is crucial for handheld systems, such as mobile phone, digital camera, and MP3 player. In recent years, a lot of experiments and simulations have been ...
Drained Elastoplastic Solution for Cylindrical Cavity Expansion in K0-Consolidated Anisotropic Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a semianalytical solution for drained expansion of a cylindrical cavity in K0-consolidated clay. The solution is derived based on the K0-based anisotropic modified Cam-clay model (K0-AMCC), which can ...
Analysis of the Thrust Force on the Temperature-Control Curtain in a Large Stratified Reservoir
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A temperature-control curtain (TCC) is an effective facility to regulate the outflow temperature in reservoirs, and its safety and stability are of great concern. The pressure difference between the front and back of a TCC ...
Role of Particle Breakage in Rockfill Materials: Investigated by Using Combined SBFEM/DEM with Two Different Breakage Models
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research will investigate the numerical simulation of rockfill materials using a combined scaled boundary finite–discrete element method (SBFEM/DEM) with two breakage models. Two rockfill specimens that are subjected ...
Experimental Investigation of the Rheological Properties, Interaction, and Microstructure Characteristics of Emulsified Asphalt with Red Mud–Based Geopolymer
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To reduce energy consumption and save economic costs, waste-derived secondary resources can be considered as cement substitutes for emulsified asphalt. Considering emulsion type and red mud–based alkali-activated materials ...
