A Gantry Crane Problem Solved
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rest to rest movement of a crane’s swinging load, at the bottom end of a cable, by moving a speed-limited gantry trolley at the top, involves resolving the apparently conflicting demands of ...
Compliance Under a Small Torsional Couple of an Elastic Plate Pressed Between Two Identical Elastic Spheres
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The object of the analysis is to calculate the surface shear traction and the torsional compliance of an elastic system comprising a plate pressed between identical spheres. The problem is ...
Seasonal and Long‐Term Variations of Dissolved Solids in Lakes and Reservoirs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The seasonal and long‐term variations of dissolved solids in lakes and reservoirs are analyzed in accordance with the hydrologic‐ and mass‐balance equations. The volume and surface area are expressed as power functions of ...
Models of Sorptive Toxic Substances in Freshwater Systems. III: Streams and Rivers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Equations defining the steady‐state distributions of solids and sorptive substances in freshwater streams and rivers are developed and solved analytically. The spatial variations of the flow and suspended solids are ...
Models of Sorptive Toxic Substances in Freshwater Systems. I: Basic Equations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Equations that define the steady‐state distribution of solids and sorptive chemicals in freshwater systems are developed. Instantaneous equilibrium between the dissolved and particulate components of the compound is assumed ...
Models of Sorptive Toxic Substances in Freshwater Systems. II: Lakes and Reservoirs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Equations defining the distributions of suspended solids and sorptive substances in completely mixed lakes and reservoirs are developed and solved analytically. The relevant transport, transfer, and kinetic pathways are ...
Wind Effects on Gas‐Liquid Transfer Coefficients
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A relationship between the transfer coefficient of sparingly soluble gases and wind velocity is developed in terms of the liquid film and surface renewal concepts. When a wind blows over water, shear is exerted at the ...
Closure to “<i>Wind Effects on Gas‐Liquid Transfer Coefficients</i>” by Donald J. O'Connor (June, 1983)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Chemical Reactions and Gas Transfer in Natural Waters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A mathematical approach to the analysis of chemical reactions that involve reactants or end products that exchange with the atmosphere is presented. Both variable and constant pH conditions are addressed. The equations are ...
Point Concentrations in Thick‐Faced Sandwich Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The analysis of thick‐faced sandwich beams is reviewed with particular emphasis on responses within the regions of point loading. Examination of solution equations for three‐ and four‐point loading cases shows that point ...
