RISStochastic Assessment of the Material Haulage Efficiency in the Earthmoving Industry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The match factor is a criterion that measures efficiency of truck and loader compatibility used in the construction industry. This factor is a function of number of trucks and loaders, truck cycle time, and loader loading ...
Use of Computational Combustion in the Development and Design of Energy-Efficient Household Cooker-Top Burners
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to design energy efficient cooker-top burners, the stabilization mechanisms of partially premixed flames were investigated. Different design features are assessed with the identical fuel (CH4), fuel flow rate, and ...
Energy Economy With a Variable Speed Drive in an Oxygen Trim Controlled Boiler House
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper investigates the potentional for energy saving in a boiler house that can be achieved through installing a variable speed drive (VSD) for the fan motor by including an oxygen trim ...
Multistage Adomian Decomposition Method for Solving NLP Problems Over a Nonlinear Fractional Dynamical System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with implementation of the multistage Adomian decomposition method (MADM) to solve a class of nonlinear programming (NLP) problems, which are reformulated with a nonlinear system ...
Response of Seismic-Isolated Bridges in Relation to Intensity Measures of Ordinary and Pulselike Ground Motions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study concentrates on the efficiency of numerous ground motion intensity measures (IMs) to be used in estimating the response of seismic-isolated bridges (SIBs). Efficiency of commonly used IMs was investigated through ...
Predicting and Measuring Surface Enlargement in Forward Rod Extrusion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface enlargement during bulk metal forming processes is one of the key parameters controlling the tribology at the tool-workpiece interface. Not only the surface roughness evolution but also the integrity of the lubricant ...
A Novel Current Condition Assessment System for Sustainable Management and Operation of Wastewater Treatment Plants
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Wastewater treatment is important in terms of human and environmental health in the urban water management cycle. Appropriate methods should be applied based on accurate data in order to ensure efficiency. This study ...
Optimization of Parallel, Horizontal, and Laminar Forced Air-Cooled Heat Generating Boards
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this study is to predict numerically the optimal spacing between parallel heat generating boards. The isothermal boards are stacked in a fixed volume of electronic package ...
Through-Thickness Residual Stress Distribution After the Cold Expansion of Fastener Holes and Its Effect on Fracturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Many analytical and experimental techniques utilize two-dimensional analysis approach to determine residual strains and stresses at cold expanded holes. In the present work, a recently developed ...
Fractional Order Control of Fractional Diffusion Systems Subject to Input Hysteresis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper concerns the control of a time fractional diffusion system defined in the Riemann–Liouville sense. It is assumed that the system is subject to hysteresis nonlinearity at its input, ...
