RISBehavior of Laterally Loaded Large-Section Barrettes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A barrette is a large cross section rectangular pile. Due to dependence of the flexural stiffness of the rectangular section on its orientation and the nonlinear behavior of barrette materials, loading direction affects ...
Unsteady Hydrodynamic Forces due to Rotor-Stator Interaction on a Diffuser Pump With Identical Number of Vanes on the Impeller and Diffuser
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental and computational study was developed for unsteady hydrodynamic forces on a diffuser pump impeller excited by the interaction between the impeller and the vaned diffuser with the ...
Recursive Prediction of Traffic Conditions with Neural Network Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a recursive traffic flow prediction algorithm using artificial neural networks. The system prediction model is specified based on the understanding of how disturbances in traffic flow are propagated, ...
Phase Transitions in Nonequilibrium Traffic Theory
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper uses the center difference scheme of Lax-Friedrichs to numerically solve a newly developed continuum traffic flow theory and the kinematic theory of Lighthill and Whitham, and Richards, and it studies the ...
Microporosity Structure of Coarse Granular Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To date the microporosity structures of coarse soils with various coarse/fines contents are still not fully understood. In this study, the pore-size distributions (PSDs) of five types of soil varying from gravel to clay ...
Breaching Parameters for Earth and Rockfill Dams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Dam risk analysis is at the heart of dam failure prevention and mitigation. In order to assess dam risk, it is essential to conduct a quantitative analysis of the process of a dam breach, which can be described by such ...
Interval Model Based Robust Control of Weld Joint Penetration
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Weld penetration sensing and control with a weld-face sensor are among the most relevant research issues in automated welding. Previous studies showed that the geometry of the weld pool contains ...
Reconstruction of Thermodynamic Cycles in a High-Resolution Simulation of a Hurricane
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe relationship between energy transport and kinetic energy generation in a hurricane is analyzed. The hydrological cycle has a negative impact on the generation of kinetic energy. First, in a precipitating ...
Real-Time Sensing of Sag Geometry During GTA Welding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Seam tracking and weld penetration control are two fundamental issues in automated welding. Although the seam tracking technique has matured, the latter still remains a unique unsolved problem. ...
Real-Time Image Processing for Monitoring of Free Weld Pool Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The arc weld pool is always deformed by plasma jet. In a previous study, a novel sensing mechanism was proposed to sense the free weld pool surface. The specular reflection of pulsed laser ...
