RISEffect of Radiation on Hydromagnetic Mixed Convective Flow in a Vertical Channel Filled With Porous Media: A Thermal Nonequilibrium Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work addresses the magnetic and radiation effects on the fully developed mixed convective flow in a vertical channel occupied by a porous medium with the thermal nonequilibrium state. The assumption that the fluid is ...
Conceptual Design of Structures Using an Upper Bound of von Mises Stress
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Optimal layouts for structural design have been generated using topology optimization approach with a wide variety of objectives and constraints. Minimization of compliance is the most common objective but the resultant ...
On One Imperfection Estimation Method for Thin Shell Buckling in the Design Code RCC-MR
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The thin shell design code RCC-MR is used for sodium-cooled fast breeder reactor components operating at high temperatures. Thin shells from such applications can be designed using linear elastic buckling analysis, following ...
Survey of Immersed Boundary Approaches for Finite Element Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mesh generation for traditional finite element analysis has proven to be very difficult to fully automate especially using hexahedral elements for complex 3D geometry. Several modifications to the finite element method ...
An Operational Model for Forecasting Probability of Precipitation and Yes/No Forecast
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An operational system for forecasting probability of precipitation (PoP) and yes/no forecast over 10 stations during monsoon season is developed. A perfect prog method (PPM) approach is followed for statistical interpretation ...
Isoparametric B-Spline Elements for Immersed Boundary Explicit Dynamic Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Explicit dynamic analysis has proven to be advantageous when simulating shock and impact loading, and very small time-scale events. In this article, the feasibility of using a background mesh of B-spline elements for ...
Unequivocally Nonconservative Results From One Method of Imperfection Quantification in RCC-MR
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Design against buckling of thin shells at high temperatures often follows the code RCC-MR. RCC-MR allows three methods to quantify shell imperfections for use in safe load calculations, where lower imperfection values raise ...
Forecasting Maximum and Minimum Temperatures by Statistical Interpretation of Numerical Weather Prediction Model Output
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The inability of a general circulation model (GCM) to predict the surface weather parameters accurately necessitates statistical interpretation of numerical weather prediction (NWP) model output. Here a system for forecasting ...
Solar Collector Featured Dryer Performance Enriched by the Adaptations of Phase Change Material Embedded With Fin Collector Absorber
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The solar dryer was an effective choice for drying agriculture products because it is cost-effective and requires no external energy for process drying. The fluctuation in drying temperature due to irregular radiation ...
