RISPropagation of a Shear Direction Acoustic Wave in Piezoelectric Coupled Cylinders
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Acoustic wave polarized in the horizontal shear direction (SH wave) have attracted much attention in the topic of smart materials research because of the following reason (123). The particle ...
Study on the Stress Concentration at the Round Corners of Flat Heads in Pressure Vessels Subjected to Internal Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Results from finite element analysis were used to show that the stress index k σ and the nondimensionalized highly stressed hub length kh of a flat head with a round corner in a pressure ...
Merging Preparation Behavior of Drivers: How They Choose and Approach Their Merge Positions at a Congested Weaving Area
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Vehicle merging is a tactical process. In the existing merging models, drivers need to select a target gap and adjust their speed to reach a comfortable merge position to execute lane changing. However, such sequential ...
Critical Issues and Possible Solutions for Motivating Foreign Construction Workers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A shortage of construction field workers has been a serious and chronic problem, both in developed and developing countries. As a solution to the increasing demands of the workforce, use of foreign workers has been a common ...
