RISEffect of the Interaction of Fines and Granular Particles on Cyclic Liquefaction Resistance Using the Equivalent Granular Void Ratio and Capacity Energy Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of strain-controlled cyclic triaxial tests were performed on Firoozkuh sand‒silt mixtures with wide ranges of fines content (FC), relative density (Dr), and effective confining stress (
Unsteady Deformation and Internal Circulation of a Liquid Drop in a Zero Gravity Uniform Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerical simulation of the internal and external flow fields of a liquid drop moving in the surrounding gas are considered. The present work is concerned with the time accurate numerical ...
Inelastic Dynamic Behavior of Hybrid Coupled Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an investigation of the seismic behavior of hybrid coupled wall systems, in which steel beams are used to couple reinforced concrete shear walls. System response is studied using transient finite element ...
Viscous Dissipation and Rarefaction Effects on Laminar Forced Convection in Microchannels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid flow in microchannels has some characteristics, which one of them is rarefaction effect related with gas flow. In the present work, hydrodynamically and thermally fully developed laminar ...
Robust Stability Analysis of Uncertain Linear Fractional-Order Systems With Time-Varying Uncertainty for 0 < α < 2
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper focuses on the stability analysis of linear fractional-order systems with fractional-order 0<α<2, in the presence of time-varying uncertainty. To obtain a robust stability condition, we first derive a new ...
Comparison of Corrosion Resistance of Fiberglass/Epoxy and Fiberglass/Polyester Composite Pipes for Application in Natural Gas Transportation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Two types of composites, fiberglass/epoxy and fiberglass/polyester, were compared for possible application to natural gas pipelines. The properties of these composites in some corrosive media were estimated using tensile ...
Intelligent Image-Based Gas-Liquid Two-Phase Flow Regime Recognition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Identification of different flow regimes in industrial systems operating under two-phase flow conditions is necessary in order to safely design and optimize their performance. In the present work, ...
Electroosmotic Flow in Hydrophobic Microchannels of General Cross Section
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Adopting the Navier slip conditions, we analyze the fully developed electroosmotic flow in hydrophobic microducts of general cross section under the Debye–Hأ¼ckel approximation. The method of analysis includes series ...
Effect of Extreme Floods on the Archaeological Sites of Persepolis and Naghsh-e-Rostam, Iran
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: UNESCO has designated the archaeological sites of Persepolis and Naghsh-e-Rostam as cultural world heritage sites. These sites are located at 55 km northeast of Shiraz, in southern Iran. Persepolis consists of three parts: ...
An Approximate Analytical Solution for Electro-Osmotic Flow of Power-Law Fluids in a Planar Microchannel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present investigation considers the fully developed electro-osmotic flow of power-law fluids in a planar microchannel subject to constant wall heat fluxes. Using an approximate velocity ...
