RISThe Impact of Arbitrary Oriented Ellipsoidal Shell With a Barrier: Analytical Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a closed form solution of an arbitrary oriented hollow elastic ellipsoidal shell impacting with an elastic flat barrier is presented. It is assumed that the shell is thin under the low speed impact. Due to ...
Clay–Biomass Composites for Water Purification
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Adsorption is one of the most commonly used water/wastewater treatment processes. Clays and biomasses have been studied widely as adsorbents for different classes of contaminants. However, these materials possess some ...
An Axisymmetric Boundary Integral Model for Incompressible Linear Viscoelasticity: Application to the Micropipette Aspiration Contact Problem
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The micropipette aspiration test has been used extensively in recent years as a means of quantifying cellular mechanics and molecular interactions at the microscopic scale. However, previous ...
An Axisymmetric Boundary Integral Model for Assessing Elastic Cell Properties in the Micropipette Aspiration Contact Problem
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The micropipette aspiration technique has been used extensively in recent years to measure the mechanical properties of living cells. In the present study, a boundary integral formulation with ...
Coagulation Followed by Continuous Sand Filtration for Treatment of Graywater
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In a long-duration study, the performance of a physicochemical system for the treatment of raw graywater––namely, coagulation followed by continuous saturated-sand filtration––was investigated. Graywater coagulated using ...
An Axisymmetric Boundary Element Model for Determination of Articular Cartilage Pericellular Matrix Properties In Situ via Inverse Analysis of Chondron Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The pericellular matrix (PCM) is the narrow tissue region surrounding all chondrocytes in articular cartilage and, together, the chondrocyte(s) and surrounding PCM have been termed the chondron. ...
The Dynamic Mechanical Environment of the Chondrocyte: A Biphasic Finite Element Model of Cell-Matrix Interactions Under Cyclic Compressive Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cyclic mechanical loading of articular cartilage results in a complex biomechanical environment at the scale of the chondrocytes that strongly affects cellular metabolic activity. Under dynamic ...
Spatial and Temporal Errors in Estimating Regional Evapotranspiration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Current methods of computing regional crop evapotranspiration (ET), the prime variable in estimating irrigation demand, largely ignore the spatial and temporal variability of ET parameters, thus introducing errors. In this ...
Behavior of Compressive Residual Stresses in High Strength Steel Welds Induced by High Frequency Mechanical Impact Treatment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Residual stress state plays an important role in the fatigue life of welded structures. The effect can be beneficial or detrimental, depending on the nature of residual stresses. High frequency mechanical impact (HFMI) ...
Energy, Economic, and Environmental Analysis of Waste-to-Energy Technologies for Municipal Solid Waste Treatment: A Case Study of Surat, India
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the energy, economic, and environmental (3E) analysis on two waste-to-energy (WtE) technologies, for example, anaerobic digestion (AD) and incineration, for the treatment of municipal solid waste in Surat ...
