A New Measuring Strategy for Sculptured Surfaces Using Offset Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a new measuring strategy that can be used to inspect the quality of sculptured surfaces. For dimensional inspection of sculptured surfaces, one important issue is how to ...
Prediction of Transitional Heat Transfer Characteristics of Wake-Affected Boundary Layers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The presence of wake-passing in the gas turbine environment significantly modifies the heat transfer characteristics on the downstream blade surface by causing wake-induced transition. In this ...
Response of Short Cracks in High-Strength Steels to Fatigue Loadings—Part I: Behavior in Air and Freely Corroding in Seawater
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experiments have been performed which determined the growth rate of short cracks (initial depth ~ 0.1 mm) for five high-strength steels (yield stress 370–570 MPa) in air and natural seawater. ...
Response of Short Cracks in High-Strength Steels to Fatigue Loadings—Part II: Behavior in Seawater Under Cathodic Polarization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experiments have been performed to determine the fatigue crack growth rate (FCGR) of short cracks (length from 0.1 to several mm) of five steels with yield stress in the range 370–570 MPa ...
A New Hue Capturing Technique for the Quantitative Interpretation of Liquid Crystal Images Used in Convective Heat Transfer Studies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study focuses on a new image processing based color capturing technique for the quantitative interpretation of liquid crystal images used in convective heat transfer studies. The present ...
Effect of Slow-Drift Loads on Nonlinear Dynamics of Spread Mooring Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Spread mooring systems (SMS) may experience large-amplitude oscillations in the horizontal plane due to slow-drift loads. In the literature, this phenomenon is attributed to resonance. In this ...
Characteristics, Riemann Invariants, and Plane Strain Plasticity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The set of equations governing plane strain plasticity are treated here as a system of homogeneous quasi-linear partial differential equations. Characteristics and Riemann invariants are defined ...
Effects of High Volumes of Fly Ash, Blast Furnace Slag, and Bottom Ash on Flow Characteristics, Density, and Compressive Strength of High-Strength Mortar
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents results of an experimental work carried out to evaluate utilization of recycled materials, such as fly ash and bottom ash (by-products of thermoelectric power plants), and blast furnace slag (by-products ...
BIM-Based Decision-Making Framework for Scaffolding Planning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Scaffolds are frequently used in construction projects and significantly impact safety and productivity. However, in many construction projects, the decisions on scaffolds are often made without thorough spatiotemporal ...
Mental Model Approach to Wastewater Treatment Plant Project Delivery during Emergency Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The proper management of water sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services is critical in serving displaced populations. In 215, the Azraq refugee camp in Jordan serving the displaced Syrian populations became one of the first ...
