Probabilistic Stability Analysis of Subway Tunnels Combining Multiple Failure Mechanisms and Response Surface Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A probabilistic approach is proposed for face stability analysis of subway tunnels, which begins with establishment of multiple failure mechanisms, including active failure and passive failure. In terms of the complex ...
Analysis of Dispersion Characteristics of an Infinite Cylindrical Shell Submerged in Viscous Fluids Considering Hydrostatic Pressure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In previous investigations of the vibroacoustic characteristics of a submerged cylindrical shell in a flow field, the fluid viscosity was usually ignored. In this paper, the effect of fluid viscosity on the vibrational ...
Prediction of Far-Field Sound Pressure of a Semisubmerged Cylindrical Shell With Low-Frequency Excitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A sound–structure interaction model is established to study the vibroacoustic characteristics of a semisubmerged cylindrical shell using the wave propagation approach (WPA). The fluid free surface effect is taken into ...
Why the ITCZ Is Mostly North of the Equator
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although the distribution of sunshine is symmetrical about the equator, the earth's climate is not. Climatic asymmetries are prominent in the eastern tropical Pacific and Atlantic Oceans where the regions of maximum sea ...
Study on Transfer Matrix Method for the Planar Multibody System With Closed-Loops
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The conventional transfer matrix method for multibody systems (MSTMM) with closed-loops (CLs) has superiority of avoiding the global dynamics equations. However, it requires a transfer equation to link multiple-input ...
