A Deformation Mechanism for Ridge Shaped Kink Structure in Layered Solids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A deformation mechanism for ridgeshaped kink structure (RSKS), a type of localized deformation, is studied with a discussion focusing on the kink deformation of a monocrystal with a singleslip system under a planestrain ...
Bandgap Characteristics and Seismic Applications of Inerter-in-Lattice Metamaterials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Longitudinal elastic wave propagation characteristics of a proposed inerter-in-lattice metamaterial (ILM) were investigated. Its local resonance emerges from the additional degree of freedom induced by a series combination ...
Tensile Creep Tests of Hydraulic Concrete under Different Curing Conditions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concrete creep is related to not only loading age and holding time but also curing temperature and humidity. To investigate the influences of curing temperature and humidity on creep performance, tensile creep tests of ...
Parametric Analysis of the Drainage Performance of Porous Asphalt Pavement Based on a 3D FEM Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Porous asphalt pavement can reduce noise and improve road safety and driving comfort on rainy days. The seepage model derived from the one-way gradient flow theory cannot truly reflect the seepage process of rainwater ...
Vibration Attenuation and Amplification of One-Dimensional Uncoupled and Coupled Systems with Optimal Metafoundations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Finite locally resonant metafoundations represent an innovative solution for structural seismic response mitigation based on their filtering capabilities at selected frequency ranges. They inherit the filtering properties ...
Buckling Instability of Carbon Nanotube Atomic Force Microscope Probe Clamped in an Elastic Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) can be used as atomic force microscope (AFM) probes due to their robust mechanical properties, high aspect ratio and small diameter. In this study, a model of CNTs clamped in an elastic medium is ...
Tensile Creep and Unloading Creep Recovery Testing of Dam Concrete with Fly Ash
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Gradual creep recovery manifests when a concrete specimen that has been subjected to a sustained stress is unloaded. Although creep and creep recovery are important properties of concrete, there is little research on the ...
Tensile Creep and Unloading Creep Recovery Testing of Dam Concrete with Fly Ash
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Gradual creep recovery manifests when a concrete specimen that has been subjected to a sustained stress is unloaded. Although creep and creep recovery are important properties of concrete, there is little research on the ...
Horizontal Transition of Turbulent Cascade in the Near-Surface Layer of Tropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ropical cyclones (TC) consist of a large range of interacting scales from hundreds of kilometers to a few meters. The energy transportation among these different scales?that is, from smaller to larger scales (upscale) or ...
