Determinants of General and Specified Resilience to Extreme Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Progressive Damage Analysis of Web Crippling of GFRP Pultruded I-Sections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) pultruded profiles are prone to web buckling and/or crushing when subjected to concentrated loads in the direction transverse to the pultrusion axis due to their low elastic and strength ...
Influence of Precipitation Assimilation on a Regional Climate Model’s Surface Water and Energy Budgets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Initialization of the moisture profiles has been used to overcome the imbalance between analysis schemes and prediction models that generates the so-called spinup problem seen in the hydrological fields. Here precipitation ...
Improving Regional Model Simulations with Precipitation Assimilation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Although large-scale atmospheric reanalyses are now providing physical, realistic fields for many variables, precipitation remains problematic. As shown in recent studies, using a regional model to downscale the global ...
Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of Urban Air Mobility Aircraft With Gust Disturbance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper explores improving the ride quality of urban air mobility (UAM) aircraft by using a nonlinear model predictive controller (NMPC) for trajectory tracking in the presence of gusts. A hybrid UAM aircraft with ...
The Effect of Weld Gas Flow Rate on Al-Li Weldability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Adequate shield and plasma gas flow rate during plasma arc welding are crucial factors in achieving high quality welds. Too low a shield gas flow rate lets atmosphere enter into the arc and ...
Robust SCC Mixes through Mix Design
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the main obstacles to a wider use of self-compacting concrete (SCC) is its sensitivity to small variations of the constituent materials, mix proportions, and other external factors. The main objective of this paper ...
Buckling Behavior and Failure of Hybrid Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Pultruded Short Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper addresses the buckling behavior and strength of hybrid pultruded short profiles subjected to uniform compression. Since the design of glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) pultruded profiles is often governed ...
Estimation and Analysis of Return Flows: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Return flows from irrigation form an important component in the overall management of water in a basin. The Nagarjunasagar irrigation project is one of the biggest irrigation projects in India. At the Nagarjunasagar project ...
Linear and Nonlinear Stability Analysis of a Fixed Caliper Brake During Forward and Backward Driving
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The parking maneuver of a passenger car is known by bench and vehicle testers to sometimes produce brake squeal, even though the brake system is otherwise quiet. This phenomenon is examined in this work. Pressure foil ...
