Study of Train Derailments Caused by Damage to Suspension Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A nonlinear finite element method was used to investigate the derailments of trains moving on multispan simply supported bridges due to damage to suspension systems. At the simulation beginning, the initial vertical ...
Chemical/Bio‐fluidized Bed Treatment of Slaughterhouse Wastewater
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A combined chemical coagulation/flocculation‐Fluidized Bed Biofilm Reactor (FBBR) process was evaluated for the treatment of an equalized slaughterhouse wastewater. Results obtained from jar and tank tests indicated that ...
SURF: Understanding and Predicting Urban Convection and Haze
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUrbanization modifies atmospheric energy and moisture balances, forming distinct features [e.g., urban heat islands (UHIs) and enhanced or decreased precipitation]. These produce significant challenges to science ...
