A Predictive Model for the Initial Droplet Size and Velocity Distribution of Flood Discharge Atomization
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: During the discharge of floodwater from a hydropower station, a significant number of water droplets in motion are created in the downstream space. These droplets vary in size and velocity, causing challenges in determining ...
Rheological Properties of SP in Shock Transmission Application
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The rheological properties of silly putty (SP) and its application as a shock transmission unit (STU) were studied in the paper. By using a parallel-plate rheometer, the frequency sweep at different temperature was carried ...
Density Effect on Round Turbulent Hypersaline Fountain
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experiment was conducted to examine a round hypersaline fountain. When the discharge was turbulent, and for large densimetric Froude numbers, the results have indicated that the maximum height of the fountain
Maximum Vertical Penetration of Plane Turbulent Negatively Buoyant Jets
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Series of plane turbulent negatively buoyant jet (or fountain) experiments were carried out by discharging saline water vertically upward from a rectangular slot into a stagnant fresh water environment. The plane jets were ...
Maximum Penetration of Vertical Round Dense Jets at Small and Large Froude Numbers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An experiment was conducted to examine the maximum penetration of a dense jet issuing vertically from a round source. This flow simulates the discharge of brine solution from desalination plants and other industrial ...
Synchronization of Networked Harmonic Oscillators With Communication Delays Under Local Instantaneous Interaction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The primary objective of this paper is to propose a distributed synchronization algorithm in undirected networks of coupled harmonic oscillators having communication delays under local instantaneous ...
Poroelastoplastic Borehole Modeling by Tangent Stiffness Matrix Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The stability of borehole is a major concern in petroleum and geotechnical engineering. Subsurface fossil fuel and thermal energy extraction, deep geologic carbon/energy storage, and waste disposal require sophisticated ...
Impact of Splitting Tensile Properties and Dynamic Constitutive Model of Fly Ash Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper studies the impact of splitting tensile properties of fly ash concrete with a split Hopkinson pressure bar device. Three different water-cement ratios (0.45, 0.55, and 0.6) and six different fly ash contents ...
Investigation of Fracture Performance and Interface Stress Behavior of Zn–Zn-Al Multilayer Coating–304 Stainless Steel Substrate System
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The maximum interface sheer stress and crack density can be used as criteria for the interfacial bonding property and fracture performance, respectively. In this paper, interface stress and crack density as a function of ...
Investigation of Corrosion Resistance and Interfacial Bonding Properties of Zn/Zn–Al Multilayer Coating/Steel Substrate System
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: As an important mechanical property index, the interfacial bonding properties between coating and substrate are key factors in determining the corrosion resistance and reliability of the system. In this paper, the corrosion ...
