Vibration and Stress Analyses of Positive Displacement Pump Pipeline Systems in Oil Transportation Stations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In oil transportation stations, the plunger motion exhibited by positive displacement pumps can cause a great deal of vibration that can influence the secure operations of the equipment and pipelines. If resonance between ...

Characteristics of Chlorine and Carbon Flow in Two Municipal Waste Incinerators in Taiwan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Characteristics of chlorine and carbon flow at two municipal solid waste incinerators (MWIs) equipped with different air pollution control devices in Taiwan are investigated based on sampling/analysis and system operating ...
Characteristics of Energy Flow in Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The energy flow of an existing municipal solid waste incinerator (MWI) was analyzed for better understanding of the energy balance and efficiency in a typical MWI located in Taiwan. The MWI investigated is of mass-burn ...
Mathematical Model of Leakage during Pressure Tests of Oil and Gas Pipelines
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Leakage may occur during pressure tests of gas pipelines. Locating the position of leakage followed by immediate repair work becomes very important. On the basis of both the theory of natural gas pipeline transportation ...
Spatial Distribution of Enterprise Communities and Its Implications Based on POI Data: Case of Xi’an, China
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: China’s residential social space has changed significantly following economic reform in 1978. Enterprise communities (ECs) are walled-off residential spaces that were built and managed mostly by the state or collectively ...
The Crucial Role of Synoptic Pattern in Determining the Spatial Distribution and Diurnal Cycle of Heavy Rainfall over the South China Coast
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Dynamic Damage Constitutive Model of Frozen Silty Soil with Prefabricated Crack under Uniaxial Load
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Defects, such as holes and flaws, greatly affect the mechanical behavior, failure mechanism, and stress wave propagation of frozen soil. To completely characterize the relationship between the dynamic strength and deformation ...
Rainfall–Runoff Process Simulation in the Karst Spring Basins Using a SAC–Tank Model
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Rainfall–runoff simulation is the basis of basin flood forecasting and water resource planning. However, karst basins are highly nonhomogeneous. With the intermittent uplift of the Earth’s crust, karst landscapes with large ...
Dynamic Responses of a Self-Moving Precision Positioning Stage Impacted by a Spring-Mounted Piezoelectric Actuator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The piezoelectric actuator (PA) has been used for precision positioning from micrometer down to nanometer scale. In this paper, a spring-mounted PA is designed to achieve a high accuracy and ...
