Design and Construction Considerations for Lunar Outpost
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Engineers utilize various codes in the process of design, whether structural, mechanical, or otherwise. Reliance on a code for design is based on the knowledge that a tremendous amount of time and effort was spent by ...
Finite Element Solutions of Deep Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The finite element solutions of deep beams are presented. Two types of deep beam elements are introduced. The first element simulates the exact analytical solution of the deep beam of rectangular cross section. The element ...
Regolith Mechanics, Dynamics, and Foundations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Due to the differences of the gravitational accelerations of the Earth and lunar environments, geotechnical engineering must be applied differently in the two environments. This study investigates those differences. Of ...
Boundary Element Methods in Probabilistic Acoustic Radiation Problems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Boundary Element Methods (BEM) are suited to a wide range of engineering problems, especially those of a semi-infinite nature. Examples of such problems can be found in the fluid-structure ...
An Approximate Model to Calculate Foldover and Strains During Cold Upsetting of Cylinders Part I: Formulation and Evaluation of the Foldover Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a new approximate model to calculate foldover of a cylinder undergoing nonuniform compression test (simple upsetting) is presented. The model is formulated using constant-volume ...
An Approximate Model to Calculate Foldover and Strains During Cold Upsetting of Cylinders Part II: Use of the Foldover Model to Estimate Friction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper addresses an approach to calculate the friction coefficient during nonuniform compression of cylinders. The approach combines new friction-calibration curves (prepared using the finite-element ...
Engineering of Architectural Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Different aspects of architectural systems are discussed in this study. The definitions of architectural systems and their importance to the building community are presented. The functions of architectural systems are ...
Dynamic Behavior of Pile Groups
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The semi‐analytical solution of the dynamic behavior of vertical pile groups is presented. The solution accounts for the pile‐soil‐pile dynamic interaction and is based on modeling the soil as a plane strain continuum and ...
Wet Modes of Submerged Structures—Part 1: Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method for determining the acoustic radiation and scattering response induced by harmonic excitation of a submerged elastic structure is presented. It is based on expansion vectors, called wet ...
Wet Modes of Submerged Structures—Part 2: Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using the wet mode methodology described in Part I of this paper, we examine the harmonic response of an elastic shell in an infinite acoustic medium subjected to an incident pressure wave. ...
