RISFatigue Crack Growth in Large Specimens With Various Stress Ratios
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental investigation has been carried out on large plates made of pressure vessel steel A516 Gr.70, to determine the fatigue crack growth rate. The specimen size was 914.4 × 304.8 ...
Strengthening of Solidified Dilute Tailings Slurry
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Tailings produced during mineral processing contain up to 75% or more water and are pumped into settling ponds for disposal. They often become a pollution source due to acid generation. While tailings have been used in ...
Integrated Modeling for Optimal Municipal Solid Waste Management Strategies under Uncertainty
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, an inexact fuzzy-probabilistic programming (IFPP) method is advanced for developing optimal municipal solid waste (MSW) management strategy with uncertain information. The IFPP can support the assessment of ...
Dual-Interval Fuzzy Stochastic Programming Method for Long-Term Planning of Municipal Solid Waste Management
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In many real-world problems, quality of the available information is generally poor and uncertainties presented as multiple formats may exist in various system components. In this study, a dual-interval fuzzy stochastic ...
Partial Meniscectomy Changes Fluid Pressurization in Articular Cartilage in Human Knees
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Partial meniscectomy is believed to change the biomechanics of the knee joint through alterations in the contact of articular cartilages and menisci. Although fluid pressure plays an important ...
Numerical Analysis of Electrodeposited Nickel Coating in Multistage Drawing Processes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The elastic-plastic finite element method of a dynamic explicit algorithm was used to simulate the deep drawing processes of nickel coating electrodeposited on a steel substrate to form an ...
Homogenization of Daily Temperature Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper develops a method for homogenizing daily temperature series. While daily temperatures are statistically more complex than annual or monthly temperatures, techniques and computational methods have been ...
Inexact Chance-Constrained Waste-Load Allocation Model for Water Quality Management of Xiangxihe River
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, an inexact chance-constrained waste-load allocation (ICWA) model is proposed for supporting river quality management under uncertainty that is capable of addressing uncertainties expressed as intervals and ...
The Asymmetry of Transient Response in Compression Versus Release for Cartilage in Unconfined Compression
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Observations in compression tests of articular cartilage have revealed unequal load increments for compression and release of the same amplitude applied to a disk with an identical previously ...
Strain-rate Dependent Stiffness of Articular Cartilage in Unconfined Compression
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stiffness of articular cartilage is a nonlinear function of the strain amplitude and strain rate as well as the loading history, as a consequence of the flow of interstitial water and ...
