RISEfficient Algorithm for the Generation of QFT Bounds for Plants With Affinely Dependent Uncertainties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an efficient algorithm for the generation of quantitative feedback theory (QFT) bounds for plants with affinely dependent uncertainties. For a plant with m affinely dependent ...
Analyzing Loads from Ice Shedding Conductors for UHV Transmission Towers in Heavy Icing Areas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, a finite element analysis (FEA) model of seven span continuous conductors and insulators for an ultra high voltage (UHV) transmission line in a heavy icing area was established for ice shedding analysis. The ...
Traffic Load Simulation for Long-Span Suspension Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study presents a procedure for simulating traffic loads for long-span suspension bridges based on the data recorded by the weigh-in-motion (WIM) system and the agent-based traffic flow microsimulation. The past traffic ...
Anthropogenic Influence on Long Return Period Daily Temperature Extremes at Regional Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Observed 1961?2000 annual extreme temperatures, namely annual maximum daily maximum (TXx) and minimum (TNx) temperatures and annual minimum daily maximum (TXn) and minimum (TNn) temperatures, are compared with those from ...

Safety Evaluation of Branch Pipe in Hydropower Station Using Elastic Modulus Reduction Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The high pressure branch pipe in hydropower station (BPHS) is usually composed by different materials in different parts and has complicated geometric configurations. The accurate and efficient ...
Updating Multiscale Model of a Long-Span Cable-Stayed Bridge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To accurately calculate stress responses and evaluate fatigue damage of the critical structural members/joints of a long-span cable-stayed bridge, a multiscale finite-element (FE) model of the bridge has been developed by ...
Historical Changes in the Beaufort–Chukchi–Bering Seas Surface Winds and Waves, 1971–2013
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study characterizes historical changes in surface wind speed and ocean surface waves in the Beaufort?Chukchi?Bering Seas using Environment Canada?s Beaufort Wind and Wave Reanalysis for the period 1970?2013. The results ...
