A Hybrid Molecular Dynamics/Atomic Scale Finite Element Method for Quasi Static Atomistic Simulations at Finite Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a hybrid quasistatic atomistic simulation method at finite temperature is developed, which combines the advantages of MD for thermal equilibrium and atomicscale finite element method (AFEM) for efficient ...
A Scale-Selective Data Assimilation Approach to Improving Tropical Cyclone Track and Intensity Forecasts in a Limited-Area Model: A Case Study of Hurricane Felix (2007)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurately forecasting a tropical cyclone?s (TC) track and intensity remains one of the top priorities in weather forecasting. A dynamical downscaling approach based on the scale-selective data assimilation (SSDA) method ...
Influence of Impact Location on the Plastic Response and Failure of Rectangular Cross Section Tubes Struck Transversely by a Hemispherical Indenter1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Drop weight impact tests and numerical simulations have been performed to examine the plastic behavior and failure of clamped rectangular cross section tubes subjected to transverse loads. The selected indenter is a ...
Scalable Hierarchical Parallel Algorithm for the Solution of Super Large Scale Sparse Linear Equations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The parallel linear equations solver capable of effectively using 1000+ processors becomes the bottleneck of largescale implicit engineering simulations. In this paper, we present a new hierarchical parallel masterslavestructural ...
Concise and Effective Network for 3D Human Modeling From Orthogonal Silhouettes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, we revisit the problem of 3D human modeling from two orthogonal silhouettes of individuals (i.e., front and side views). Different from our previous work (Wang et al. (2003, “Virtual Human Modeling From ...
Cavitation Bubble Collapse Near a Heated Wall and Its Effect on the Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present work, a numerical investigation on the mechanism of heat transfer enhancement by a cavitation bubble collapsing near a heated wall has been presented. The Navier–Stokes equations and volume of fluid (VOF) ...
Effects of Magnetic Field on the Phase Change Cells and the Formation of Ice Crystals in Biomaterials: Carrot Case
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to explore the effect of direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) magnetic field (MF) on the biological (fruits and vegetables) phase transformation and ice crystal formation, we used carrot strips ...
Mechanics Interpretation on the Bending Stiffness and Wrinkled Pattern of Graphene
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper we attempt to answer two questions on graphene from a mechanic's viewpoint: why does this oneatomthick monolayer have finite bending stiffness to ensure its stability? and what is its wrinkle mechanism? As ...
Application of Scale-Selective Data Assimilation to Regional Climate Modeling and Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method referred to as scale-selective data assimilation (SSDA) is designed to inject the large-scale components of the atmospheric circulation from a global model into a regional model to improve regional climate simulations ...
Two Objective and Independent Fracture Parameters for Interface Cracks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Due to the oscillatory singular stress field around a crack tip, interface fracture has some peculiar features. This paper is focused on two of them. One can be reflected by a proposed paradox that geometrically similar ...
