An Investigation in the Variance in Particle Surface Interactions and Their Effects in Gas Turbines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work presents the results of a study conducted to investigate particle surface interaction characteristics and their effects on the particle dynamics and blade erosion in axial flow gas ...
In Memoriam: Building on the Legacy of Elias P. Gyftopoulos (1927–2012) Entropy and Thermodynamics Made Rigorous
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Indeed, in the international thermodynamics community, he has been very influential. His crystal clear understanding of the entropy balance made him a leader in the 1970s and the 1980s, when the methods of availability ...
Relaxation Behavior of Concrete under Sustained Uniaxial Compressive Deformation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Influence of Secondary Flow on Turbine Erosion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work presents the results of an investigation conducted to study the effect of secondary flow on blade erosion by coal ash particles in axial flow gas turbines. The particle dynamics and ...
Effect of Particle Characteristics on Trajectories and Blade Impact Patterns
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work presents the results of a detailed study of the effect of particle characteristics on the particle dynamics and on the resulting pattern of blade impacts in a two stage axial flow ...
Solid Particle Dynamic Behavior Through Twisted Blade Rows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Particle trajectory calculations provide the essential information required for predicting the pattern and intensity of turbomachinery erosion. Consequently, accurate flow field and blade geometry ...
Modeling, Analysis, and Behavior of Load-Carrying Precast Concrete Sandwich Panels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the behavior of precast concrete sandwich panels (PCSPs) made with truss shear connectors, which accounts for partial shear interaction. A theoretical model is developed based on variational principles ...

Framework for Modeling Mass Disasters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper introduces a generic mass Disaster Modeling Framework (DMF) to support integrated sociophysical risk assessment and management of disasters. The DMF draws on the principles that disasters have many common features ...
Creep in Precast-Concrete Sandwich Panels Made with Diagonal-Bar Shear Connectors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper aims to investigate and explain the influence of creep of concrete, insulation, and diagonal bars on the behavior of precast-concrete sandwich panels. A theoretical model is developed based on a layered structural ...
