GIS for Highway Engineering Bearing Capacity Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The bearing capacity of soils under highway engineering differs from that of soils under the building foundation as a result of different superstructure types and foundation forms. Determining the characteristic value of ...
Effects of Typical Machining Errors on the Nonlinear Dynamic Characteristics of Rod-Fastened Rotor Bearing System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effects of typical machining errors on the dynamic features of rod-fastened rotor bearing system (RBS) are studied in this paper. Three micron-sized machining errors are considered in a three-dimensional (3D) rod-fastened ...
Dynamic Modeling and Nonlinear Characteristics of a Cracked Bolt-Disk Combined Rotor System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Different from the crack on the rotating shaft, the crack on the bolt, which is a connecting part of the bolt-disk combined rotor, is a kind of local defect. The local crack on the bolt under high pretension is always in ...
Influence of Intake Pipe Deflection Angle on In-Cylinder Flow and Combustion Characteristics of a Rotary Engine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intake pipe design is important for rotary engine performance due to great influence on in-cylinder flow and combustion characteristics. This paper analyzes the effect of intake pipe deflection angle on the performance of ...
Bounds on the Poisson’s Ratios of Diamond-Like Structures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Poisson’s ratios of diamond-like structures, such as cubic C, Si, and Ge, have been widely explored because of their potential applications in solid-state devices. However, the theoretical bounds on the Poisson’s ratios ...
Influences of Cloud Vertical Overlapping on the Calculated Cloud Albedo and Their Validation with Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Investigation on the Stability and Bifurcation of a 3D Rotor Bearing System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stability and bifurcation of a flexible 3D rotor system are investigated in this paper. The rotor is discretized by 3D elements and reduced by using component mode synthesis. Periodic motions and stability margins are ...
The Secondary Low and Heavy Rainfall Associated with Typhoon Mindulle (2004)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents an observational and numerical study of Typhoon Mindulle (2004) as it affected Taiwan. Mindulle made landfall on the east coast of Taiwan at 1500 UTC 1 July 2004, and after 13 h, it exited Taiwan from ...
MM5 Ensemble Mean Forecasts in the Taiwan Area for the 2003 Mei-Yu Season
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents an evaluation study of a real-time fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) mesoscale ensemble prediction system in the Taiwan area during the 2003 mei-yu season. The ...
Progressive Collapse Resistance of Posttensioned Concrete Beam-Column Subassemblages with Unbonded Posttensioning Strands
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the behavior of posttensioned reinforced concrete (PC) beam-column subassemblages subjected to the loss of a middle column is investigated experimentally. The influence of unbonded posttensioning strands ...
