Special Issue on Nanomaterials and Nanomechanics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The behavior or materials at the nanoscale and the behavior of nanocomponents such as nanowires and nanotubes have been subjects of increasing research in recent years. The idea of dedicating ...
Pseudoelasticity of Single Crystalline Cu Nanowires Through Reversible Lattice Reorientations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Molecular dynamics simulations are carried out to analyze the structure and mechanical behavior of Cu nanowires with lateral dimensions of 1.45–2.89 nm. The calculations simulate the formation ...
Spatially Subsidized Benefits-Based Spatial Decision for Affordable Housing: Prototype and Case Study in China
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Chinese cities have experienced unprecedented growth in the past few decades. In this context, the rapid rise of housing prices in Chinese cities makes the affordability of homeownership one of the biggest challenges related ...
Micromechanical Simulation of Dynamic Fracture Using the Cohesive Finite Element Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic fracture in two-phase Al2O3/TiB2 ceramic composite microstructures is analyzed explicitly using a cohesive finite element method (CFEM). This framework allows the effects of microstructural ...
Novel Self-Centering Negative Stiffness Damper Based on Combination of Shape Memory Alloy and Prepressed Springs
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel self-centering negative stiffness damper (SCNSD), which combines superelastic shape memory alloy (SMA) and prepressed springs in parallel for damping enhancement. A mechanical model of the damping ...
Experimental Study of Compaction and Expansion Effects Caused by Penetration of Core Pile During Construction of SDCM Pile
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Stiffened deep cement mixing (SDCM) piles have been applied in practice for decades. The bearing capacity of this kind of pile is closely related to the compaction and expansion of the deep cement mixing (DCM) pile and ...
Experimental Study of the Effects Produced by a Backfilling Process on Full-Scale Buried Corrugated HDPE Pipes in Fine-Grained Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes are widely used throughout the world due to their significant advantages. Most of the previous studies have focused on the behavior of the pipe-soil system under live loading and the ...
Numerical Assessment of Electric Roadway Deicing System Utilizing Emerging Carbon Nanofiber Paper
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Traditional deicing approaches such as salting pollute the environment and corrode reinforcing steel bars in concrete. Meanwhile, recently emerging carbon nanofiber material has improved electrical conductivity, a large ...

Abstract: High-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes are widely used throughout the world due to their significant advantages. Most of the previous studies have focused on the behavior of the pipe-soil system under live loading and the ...
CloudA: A Ground-Based Cloud Classification Method with a Convolutional Neural Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Conventional classification methods are based on artificial experience to extract features, and each link is independent, which is a kind of “shallow learning.” As a result, the scope of the cloud category applied by this ...
