Approximate Analysis of Irregular Slab-on-Girder Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple, approximate method for determining the live-load girder distribution factors of irregular slab on I-beam bridge layouts is presented. The method can also be used for the live-load analysis of bridges subjected ...
Heat Transfer and Pressure Drop in a Double-Pass Solar Air Heater With Arc-Shaped Artificial Roughness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental and theoretical study has been performed to analyze the heat transfer and pressure drop performance of a double-pass solar air heater having arc-shaped roughness. The investigations are performed for the ...
Liquid Desiccant Air Conditioning Using Single Storage Solution Tank, Evaporative Cooling, and Marquise-Shaped Solar Collector
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present paper deals with the experimental study of the liquid desiccant air conditioning system using the single storage solution tank. The novelty of the system is that the dehumidification and regeneration are carried ...
Nanoscale Morphology of Kerogen and In Situ Nanomechanical Properties of Green River Oil Shale
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Oil shale is an important energy resource that is immensely underutilized due to the cost of extraction of crude oil from oil shale as a result of limited scientific understanding of the locking of kerogen, the precursor ...
Insight into Role of Clay-Fluid Molecular Interactions on Permeability and Consolidation Behavior of Na-Montmorillonite Swelling Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Swelling clays, also known as expansive clays, are encountered extensively all over the world. These clays are problematic for geotechnical engineering applications because of distress caused to structures and infrastructure ...
Nanoclay Based Composite Scaffolds for Bone Tissue Engineering Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Scaffolds based on chitosan/polygalacturonic acid (ChiPgA) complex containing montmorillonite (MMT) clay modified with 5-aminovaleric acid were prepared using freeze-drying technique. The MMT clay ...
