Abstract: Evaporation is often the dominant mechanism for mass loss during the first few days following an oil spill. The initial boiling point of the oil and the rate at which the boiling point changes as the oil evaporates are ...

Abstract: An experimental study of stratified flow was conducted in this study. An electromagnetic measurement instrument, the S4 current meter, was used in field data collections of salinity and currents in the lower Apalachicola ...

Abstract: An internal state variable void coalescence equation developed by , , , and (2000, Theor. Appl. Fract. Mech., 33(1), pp. 31–47) that comprises void impingement and void sheet mechanisms is ...

Abstract: Experimental data on surface topographical properties are presented for case-hardened materials which had been nitrided by both the glow discharge and ammonia gas processes. Included are the ...

Abstract: Explosive values are generally composed of a tapered plunger which is explosively driven along the bore of a cylindrical housing and forced to stop at a location designed to alter a particular ...

Abstract: The embedded suction anchor (ESA) is a type of permanent offshore foundation that is installed by a suction pile. The primary factors influencing the horizontal pullout capacity of an ESA ...

Abstract: The objective of a weld coupon is to provide a simple test to determine the effects of different welding parameters and constraints on the final state of fusion welds. With such a test it ...

Abstract: The dynamic response of coupled extensional‐torsional systems caused by variable forces and torques Is discussed. The general solution to the equations of motion is found, and closed‐form solutions are obtained for various ...

Abstract: This work presents a novel and extensive investigation of mathematical regression techniques, for the prediction of laboratory-type kinematic measurements during human gait, from wearable measurement ...

Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical investigation of the coupled extensional-torsional vibration of helical springs. The study shows that two types of periodic wave will propagate through the spring, ...
