Identification of Acoustic Characteristics of Honeycomb Sandwich Composite Panels Using Hybrid Analytical/Finite Element Method1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For the purpose of identifying the acoustic characteristics of honeycomb sandwich panels, finite element method (FEM), combined with boundary element method (BEM), has been widely used. However, the latter approach is not ...
Two-Way Coupled Multiscale Model for Predicting Mechanical Behavior of Bone Subjected to Viscoelastic Deformation and Fracture Damage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a two-way linked computational multiscale model and its application to predict the mechanical behavior of bone subjected to viscoelastic deformation and fracture damage. The model is based on continuum ...
Multiscale Modeling of Damage Evolution in Viscoelastic Bituminous Mixtures Subjected to Cyclic Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study presents a multiscale computational model and its application to predict damage dependent mechanical behavior of bituminous mixtures subjected to cyclic loading. Two length scales (global and local) are twoway ...
On the Variability of Antarctic Circumpolar Current Fronts Inferred from 1992–2011 Altimetry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ntarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) fronts, defined as water mass boundaries, have been known to respond to large-scale atmospheric variabilities, especially the Southern Hemisphere annular mode (SAM) and El Niño?Southern ...
Comparison of Flow and Heat Transfer Distributions in a Can Combustor for Radial and Axial Swirlers Under Cold Flow Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A comparison study between axial and radial swirler performance in a gas turbine can combustor was conducted by investigating the correlation between combustor flow field geometry and convective heat transfer at cold flow ...
Thermodynamics Based Mean Value Model for Diesel Combustion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A thermodynamicsbased computationally efficient mean value engine model that computes ignition delay, combustion phases, exhaust temperature, and indicated mean effective pressure has been developed for the use of control ...
Turbine Vane Passage Experiments Documenting Evolution of Secondary Flows With Changes in Combustor Coolant Injection Flowrates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A secondary flow system with a dominant passage vortex pattern has been observed in many gas turbine vane passage studies in which there is no upstream coolant injection or only near-passage endwall coolant injection (no ...
Turbine Vane Passage Cooling Experiments With a Close-Coupled Combustor-Turbine Interface Geometry—Part I: Describing the Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Due to the proximity of the first-stage gas turbine vanes to the combustor, coolant introduced to the combustor walls interacts with the endwall film coolant and changes the vane passage flow physics. Recent results show ...
Nozzle Passage Endwall Effectiveness Values With Various Combustor Coolant Flowrates—Part 1: Flowfield Velocity and Coolant Concentration Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stators of the first stage of a gas turbine are exposed to severe temperatures. The coolant streams introduced to prevent the stators from thermal damage further complicate the highly three-dimensional vane passage ...
Nozzle Passage Endwall Effectiveness Values With Various Combustor Coolant Flowrates—Part 2: Endwall and Vicinity Surface Effectiveness Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Effective coolant schemes are required for providing cooling to the first-stage stator vanes of gas turbines. To correctly predict coolant performance on the endwall and vane surfaces, these coolant schemes should also ...
