Stability Analysis of an Initially Inclined Ship in Following Sea
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Generally speaking, the causes of ship capsizing in waves are due to the pure loss of stability, parametric oscillation, and broaching-to phenomenon. In this paper, an analytic expression for ...
Image Singularity System to Represent Two Circular Cylinders of Different Diameter
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The singularity system to represent two circular cylinders poised under different ambient flow fields is considered in the present research. The singularity system, composed of a series of ...
Optimal Cool Down in Nonlinear Thermoviscoelasticity With Application to Graphite/Peek (APC-2) Laminates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Many thermoplastic resin composite laminates, such as those made of APC-2, undergo a substantial temperature drop during their post-manufacturing cool down. This thermal excursion induces significant ...
Discussion of “<i>Fourier Analysis of Dissipative FEM Channel Flow Model</i>” by Nikolaos D. Katopodes (July, 1984, Vol. 110, No. 7)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Potential Flow Through Channel Constriction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Standard methods for computing backwater at width constrictions of flood plains severely underestimate backwater when the flood plain is wide and heavily vegetated. The energy‐loss term for the approach reach upstream from ...
Discussion of “Uncertainty Model for In Situ Quality Control of Stationary ADCP Open-Channel Discharge Measurement” by Hening Huang
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Domains of Attraction of System of Nonlinearly Coupled Ship Motions by Simple Cell Mapping
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A nonlinear dissipative dynamical system can often have multiple attractors. In this case, it is important to study the global behavior of the system by determining the global domain of ...
Special Issue on Construction Dispute Resolution
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Smear Effect and Well Resistance of PVD-Installed Ground Based on the Hyperbolic Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To back analyze the smear effect and well resistance of a ground that incorporates prefabricated vertical drains, a simple method based on the hyperbolic method previously reported and a simplified form of the consolidation ...
Numerical Analysis of Elliptic-Hyperbolic Plastic Flow in Torsion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method for solving elastic-perfectly plastic problems is presented, such that the mixed elliptic-hyperbolic field may be modeled properly. The method is applied to torsion of a rectangular bar ...
