RISAdsorption Kinetics in Gac Systems for Water Treatment
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study investigates the activated carbon adsorption kinetics of TOC from a surface water. The uptake of TOC from water in a batch reactor, as well as in a fixed bed, has been successfully predicted using a single solute, ...
Axially Moving Microscale Panel Model Based on Modified Couple Stress Theory
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The problem of the axially moving microscale panel based on the modified couple stress theory and the principle of minimum total potential energy is analyzed. The mathematical model of the considered system contains the ...
Robust M-Estimation in Analysis of Control Network Deformations: Classical and New Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Robust M-estimation is very useful in the geometric deformation analysis of geodetic control networks, especially in the analysis of single-point displacements in these networks. In fact, a robust M-estimation allows one ...
Discussion of “<i>Improvement of Second‐Order Reliability Estimates by Importance Sampling</i>” by Michael Hohenbichler and Ruediger Rackwitz (December, 1988, Vol. 114, No. 12)

Linear and Nonlinear Vibrations of a Column with an Internal Crack
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, the results of numerical studies on linear and nonlinear transverse vibrations and instability of a geometrically nonlinear column with an internal crack subjected to Euler’s load are presented. The investigated ...
Strengthening of the Tropopause Inversion Layer during the 2009 Sudden Stratospheric Warming: A MERRA-2 Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he behavior of the tropopause inversion layer (TIL) during the 2009 sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) is analyzed using NASA?s Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, version 2 (MERRA-2), and ...
Can the Dean number Alone Characterize Flow Similarity in Differently Bent Tubes?
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Although flows of fluids in curved channels belong to a classical problem of fluid dynamics, most publications are restricted to investigations of flows in tube coils, or in single bends. This ...
Cracking of Upper Pipe of Hydraulic Prop Made of 32HA Steel: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article describes the cracking of a hydraulic cylinder pipe made of 32HA steel with an Ar-shielded gas tungsten arc–welded (GTAW) protective housing. Grade 32HA is a Polish grade of steel that contains approximately ...
Performance-Oriented Design of Inverse Kinematics Algorithms: Extended Jacobian Approximation of the Jacobian Pseudo-Inverse
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For redundant robotic manipulators, we study the design problem of Jacobian inverse kinematics algorithms of desired performance. A specific instance of the problem is addressed, namely the optimal ...
Stability Threshold of Flexibly Supported Hybrid Gas Journal Bearings
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Results of experimental investigations of the dynamic properties of elastic supports for gas bearings having the form of rubber O-rings are presented. Theoretical calculations of the stability ...
