RISEcohydrology and Hydrologic Engineering: Regulation of Hydrology-Biota Interactions for Sustainability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the context of global environmental and social change, with increasing pollution and decline of biodiversity of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems having its deep roots in drastic modifications to hydrological mesocycles, ...
Experimental study on spatial variation of mass transport induced by surface waves generated in a finite-depth laboratory flume
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The aim of laboratory experiments conducted in a wave flume is to confirm that wave-induced mass transport varies along the way of propagation of regular mechanically generated waves in water of finite depth. This effect ...
Application of Variable Valve Actuation Strategies and Direct Gasoline Injection Schemes to Reduce Combustion Harshness and Emissions of Boosted HCCI Engine
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present study investigates various measures to reduce pressure rise rates (PRRs) in a residual-affected homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine. At the same time, the impact of those measures on efficiency ...

Locomotion of a Mini Bristle Robot With Inertial Excitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents a theory of vibratory locomotion, a prototype, and the results of experiments on mini robot, which moves as a result of inertial excitation provided by two electric motors. The robot is equipped with ...
Transition on the T106 LP Turbine Blade in the Presence of Moving Upstream Wakes and Downstream Potential Fields
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Boundary layer measurements were performed on a cascade of the T106 high lift low-pressure (LP) turbine blades that was subjected to upstream wakes and a moving downstream potential field. Tests ...
The Wall Effect in the Flow of Commercial Lubricating Greases
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The results of the studies on the formation of surface and boundary layers in commercial lithium (LT4S3) and calcium (STP) greases near the walls of six different materials are presented. Two elastomeric materials ...
Worm Gear Drives With Adjustable Backlash
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article presents the design of patented worm gear drives, which allow backlash adjustment or elimination by using specially designed worms and worm wheels. Many of the presented solutions allow backlash adjustment ...
Identification of a Subsystem Located in The Complex Dynamical Systems Subjected to Random Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents a new way to determine some dynamical properties of materials modeled by the so-called degenerate system. The system is an element (subsystem) of any complex multidegree-of-freedom system. This subsystem ...
Application of Polynomial Chaos Expansion to Tolerance Analysis and Synthesis in Compliant Assemblies Subject to Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Statistical tolerance analysis and synthesis in assemblies subject to loading are of significant importance to optimized manufacturing. Modeling the effects of loads on mechanical assemblies in tolerance analysis typically ...
