RISInfluence of Wall Inclination Angles on the Onset of Gas Entrainment During Single and Dual Discharges From a Reservoir
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A theoretical analysis was carried out to predict the influences of wall inclination angles of large reservoirs on the onset of gas entrainment during single and dual discharges from a stratified ...
A Pressure Distribution Transducer for In-Vitro Static Measurements in Synovial Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The basic features and the performance characteristics of a transducer to measure in-vitro static pressure distribution at the articular interfaces of intact synovial joints are described. Pressure ...
Design and Performance of a Modified Buckle Transducer for the Measurement of Ligament Tension
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The basic features of a modified buckle transducer for the direct in-situ measurement of tension in ligamentous or tendonous tissues are described. The slender shape of the modified design ...
A Simple Unconstrained Dynamic Knee Simulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of a simple dynamic knee simulator is described. In the simulator the joint dynamics are reproduced in-vitro in a knee specimen by controlling the time-histories of the tensions in ...
Analysis of Client-Satisfaction Factors in Construction Industry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: What factors do clients perceive as being most important when dealing with contractor organizations? How does the perception of clients in various industries differ from each other? To answer these questions, and develop ...
Break-Up Length and Spreading Angle of Liquid Sheets Formed by Splash Plate Nozzles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental investigation is conducted to determine the effect of liquid viscosity and density, nozzle diameter, and flow velocity on the break-up length and spreading angle of liquid sheets ...
Lateral Load Analysis of Stand-off Anchor Bolt Connections Using the Load-Distribution Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A comprehensive method was derived for the analysis of stand-off anchor bolt connections with various stand-off distances that are subjected to lateral loading. The procedure applied the load-distribution method that is ...
Effect of Uneven Standoff Distances on the Axial Force Resistance of Anchor Bolt Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A stiffness-based approach founded on the moment-distribution method evaluated the effect of uneven standoff distances in double-nut anchor-bolt connections on the axial-resistive forces provided by the anchor bolts in ...
Cavitation Erosion Mechanism Based on Analysis of Erosion Particles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The mechanism of cavitation erosion is investigated in detail through observations of the removed particles from pure aluminum (Al-99.999). The particles removed during the incubation stage have ...
Bubble Structures Between Two Walls in Ultrasonic Cavitation Erosion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The cavitation bubble structures for the stationary specimen method were clarified for various distances, h, between the stationary specimen and the horn-tip surface. The generated cavitation ...
