RISMultistep Forecasting for Short-Term Wind Speed Using an Optimized Extreme Learning Machine Network with Decomposition-Based Signal Filtering
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Since wind fluctuates with strong variation even within a short-term period, it is quite difficult to describe the characteristics of wind or to estimate the power output that will be injected into the grid. In particular, ...
Closed Form Expression for the Vibration Problem of a Transversely Isotropic Magneto-Electro-Elastic Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A closed form expression for the transverse vibration of a magnetoelectroelastic (MEE) thin plate is derived, and the exact solution for the free vibration of a two-layered BaTiO3–CoFe2O4 composite ...
Experimental Behavior of Stiffened and Unstiffened End-Plate Connections under Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To compare the hysteretic behavior, stiffness, and strength of stiffened and unstiffened extended end-plate connections of beam–column joints, six specimens with eight high strength bolts were tested under cyclic load. ...
First-Order Reliability Analysis of Wood Structural Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Computer simulation and an approximate method were used to study the lifetime behavior of wood floor and roof systems. A simplified beam-spring model was used to model the systems. In this study, two-way action of the ...
Overload Behavior of Sheathed Lumber Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Computer simulation was used to study the overload behavior of sheathed lumber systems. Simulations included in this study covered two-way action of the sheathing; partial composite action between the sheathing, connectors, ...
Three-Dimensional Aerodynamic Design Optimization of a Turbine Blade by Using an Adjoint Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the application of an adjoint method to the aerodynamic design optimization of a turbine blade. With the adjoint method, the complete gradient information needed for optimization ...
Prediction of Flutter of Turbine Blades in a Transonic Annular Cascade
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A parallel multiblock Navier-Stokes solver with the k‐ω turbulence model is used to solve the unsteady flow through an annular turbine cascade, the transonic Standard Test Case 4, Test 628. ...
Performance of Recycled Plastic-Based Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports an experimental study on recycled plastic concrete (RPC) that uses recycled acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene/polycarbonate copolymer (ABS/PC) plastic particles to replace 5, 10, 15, and 20% (in volume) ...
Identifying Bottlenecks in Roadway Networks in Hurricane Evacuation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The existence of traffic bottlenecks limits the network capacity and leads to massive recurring and nonrecurring congestions during daily traffic peaks and in the critical event of an emergency evacuation. It is important ...
Dynamic Mechanical Behavior and Constitutive Model of a Newly Designed Reactive Nanoinorganic Cement-Based Composite
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Recently, reactive nanoinorganic cement-based composite (RNICC) has attracted considerable attention as a high-strength and high-performance concrete. Understanding the mechanical properties and establishing a constitutive ...
