RISCoffee Stain Ring Effect and Nonuniform Material Removal in Chemical Mechanical Polishing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: When a drop of coffee dries on the counter-top, it leaves a dense, ringlike stain along its perimeter. Solids immersed in a drying drop will migrate toward the edge of the drop and form a ...
General Geometrical Model of Scroll Compression Chamber for Scroll Fluid Machine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For a scroll fluid machine with an arbitrary number of scroll wraps on its individual scroll, the phase difference between adjacent scroll profiles on one scroll is defined as the characteristic ...
Kinematic Analysis of Foldable Plate Structures With Rolling Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rolling joints, which are created by attaching two cylindrical surfaces of equal radius using two or more thin tapes or cable, are used for rigid origami considering the panel thickness. First, the concept and two ...
Global Transport on a Spherical Multiple-Cell Grid
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: econd- and third-order upstream nonoscillatory (UNO) advection schemes are applied on a spherical multiple-cell (SMC) grid for global transport. Similar to the reduced grid, the SMC grid relaxes the Courant?Friedrichs?Lewy ...
Upstream Nonoscillatory Advection Schemes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Upstream nonoscillatory (UNO) advection schemes are derived by optimizing existing classical advection schemes and combining them in different monotonic zones to avoid flux limiters for simplicity. The UNO schemes are ...
An Objective Approach for Making Heavy Rainfall Forecasts Based on Numerical Model Output and the Latest Observation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An approach is presented that can make an objective heavy rainfall forecast based on numerical model output and the latest observed rainfall without employing historical data. The idea of the approach is that the mean ...
BMA Probabilistic Quantitative Precipitation Forecasting over the Huaihe Basin Using TIGGE Multimodel Ensemble Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ayesian model averaging (BMA) probability quantitative precipitation forecast (PQPF) models were established by calibrating their parameters using 1?7-day ensemble forecasts of 24-h accumulated precipitation, and observations ...
Risk-Based Proof-Load Requirements for Bridge Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Proof-load testing is considered a reliable approach to evaluation of an existing structure's load-carrying capacity. It can be effectively used for highway bridge evaluation, to either enhance an existing rating obtained ...
New Mesoscale Phase Field Model for Analysis of FRP-to-Concrete Bonded Joints
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Externally bonded fiber-reinforced polymer (EB-FRP) laminates have become popular for strengthening existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures. However, the high tensile strength of the FRP laminate is often not fully ...
Numerical Analysis of the Impacts of Multiscale Fractures on Geothermal Reservoir Capacity
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A fracture network as the main channel of seepage and heat transfer has been a key focus in an enhanced geothermal system. The fractures in the geothermal reservoir usually have a strong multiscale nature in length, but ...
