RISStudy on the Grinding Mechanism of Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to clarify the grinding mechanism of polymer matrix composites, special test specimens were provided. The test specimen is such one that glass yarns are unidirectionally embedded at ...
DNS of Drag-Reducing Turbulent Channel Flow With Coexisting Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Fluid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study, we numerically investigated drag-reducing turbulent channel flows by surfactant additives. Surfactant additives were assumed to be uniformly distributed in the entire flow ...
Automatic Conversion of Visually Consistent Digital Maps to Conforming Geometry for Computational Fluid Dynamics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A method for automatic conversion of three-dimensional (3D) digital maps for visual purposes to a conforming geometry for city-scale computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is proposed in this paper. Difficulties in automatic ...
Possibility of Organic Monolayer Films as Lubricants for Disk Drives: Comparative Study of PFPE and Organosilane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Organosilane monolayer of 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltrichlorosilane and PFPE lubricant films were deposited on magnetic hard disk surfaces protected with amorphous carbon overcoats, and their frictional ...
Swirling Flow of a Viscoelastic Fluid With Free Surface—Part II: Numerical Analysis With Extended Marker-and-Cell Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In Part I [, 2004, 2004 ASME Int. Mech. Eng. Conference ], we presented the experimental results for swirling flows of water and cetyltrimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC) surfactant solution in ...
Fixed-Point Observation of Mixed Layer Evolution in the Seasonally Ice-Free Chukchi Sea: Turbulent Mixing due to Gale Winds and Internal Gravity Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: fixed-point observation using the R/V Mirai was conducted in the ice-free northern Chukchi Sea of the Arctic Ocean during September of 2013. During the program the authors performed repeated microstructure measurements to ...
Deterioration Rates of Typical Bridge Elements in New York
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) maintains an inventory of over 17,000 highway bridges across the state. These bridges are inspected biennially or more often as necessary. Bridge inspectors are ...
Concept and Preliminary Analysis of Novel Movable Structural System for Cable-Stayed Footbridge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Movable bridges are interesting and feasible solutions at the crossover point of transportations, providing fascinating landscapes and significant engineering challenges. This paper presents a new structural system applied ...
A Study on Sodium–Concrete Reaction in Presence of Internal Heating
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The sodium–concrete reaction (SCR) is an important phenomenon during severe accidents in sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFRs), as it generates large volumes of hydrogen and aerosols in the containment vessel along with ...
Improved Approximation Approach for Folding Analyses of Structures with Kinematic Indeterminacy
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The kinematic analysis method based on generalized inverse theory has been used in the engineering field. However, the traditional numerical procedure is found to be extraordinarily time consuming when the number of unknowns ...
