RISA Phenomenological Model for Fatigue Crack Growth Rate of X70 Pipeline Steel in H2S Corrosive Environment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Long distance pipeline transmission is considered to be the most economic and safest method to transport natural gas in recent days. The pipeline safety problem is a focus of concern in the academic and industrial circles. ...
Monitoring Structural Performance of a Supertall Building during 14 Tropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Field measurements of wind effects on a 42-meter-high supertall building in Hong Kong were analyzed during the passages of 14 tropical cyclone (TC) events, from 28 to 216, with a total recording time duration of 36 h. ...
Studies on Compatibility between Slipform Paving Cement Concrete and Complex Admixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The slipform paving technique has been utilized widely in the construction of high-class highway cement concrete pavements in China, resulting in increased use of complex admixtures. Complex admixtures usually contain ...
Numerical Analysis on the Ground Settlement Induced by Shield Tunnel Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Forecast and control of the deformation caused by stratum loss in the tunnel construction is one of the important research issues in the field of tunnel engineering. The ground settlement induced inevitably by shield tunnel ...
Recent Summer Rainfall Increase and Surface Cooling over Northern Australia since the Late 1970s: A Response to Warming in the Tropical Western Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ainfall over northern Australia (NA) in austral summer is the largest water source of Australia. Previous studies have suggested a strong zonal-dipole trend pattern in austral summer rainfall since 1950, with rainfall ...
Recent Winter Precipitation Increase in the Middle–Lower Yangtze River Valley since the Late 1970s: A Response to Warming in the Tropical Indian Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he middle?lower valley of the Yangtze River (MLY), located in the middle of eastern China, has been one of the largest economic centers of China since ancient times. Winter precipitation variability over the MLY is important ...
Kinematic Performance and Static Analysis of a Two-Degree-of-Freedom 3-RPS/US Parallel Manipulator With Two Passive Limbs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a new 3-RPS (the limb consisting of one revolute, one prismatic, and one spherical joint)/US (universal joint and spherical joint) parallel mechanism with two degrees-of-freedom (DOFs) is obtained by adding ...
Measurement of Viscoelastic Fluid Flow in the Curved Microchannel Using Digital Holographic Microscope and Polarized Camera
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper aims to develop a threedimensional (3D) measurement approach to investigate the flow structures of viscoelastic fluid in the curved microchannel by using digital holographic microscope (DHM). The measurement ...
Seismic Design for Bridges with Short Piers in High Earthquake Intensity Zones
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aimed at short bridge piers that are vulnerable to brittle shear failure in high earthquake intensity zones, seismic design countermeasures for bridges with short piers were put forward in combination with the Guidelines ...
