Nonlinear Stochastic Dynamics, Chaos, and Reliability Analysis for a Single Degree of Freedom Model of a Rotor Blade
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In turbomachinery, the analysis of systems subjected to stochastic or periodic excitation becomes highly complex in the presence of nonlinearities. Nonlinear rotor systems exhibit a variety of ...
Modified Path Integral Solution of Fokker–Planck Equation: Response and Bifurcation of Nonlinear Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Response of nonlinear systems subjected to harmonic, parametric, and random excitations is of importance in the field of structural dynamics. The transitional probability density function (PDF) ...
Numerical Scheme for the Solution of Fractional Differential Equations of Order Greater Than One
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical scheme for the solutions of Fractional Differential Equations (FDEs) of order α, 1<α<2 which have been expressed in terms of Caputo Fractional Derivative ...
High-Temperature Erosive Wear Behavior of High-Velocity Oxy-Fuel Sprayed Cr3C225 (Ni20Cr) Coating on (AISI 316) Austenitic Steel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: AISI 316 austenitic steel is extensively used in various components of power plants like boilers, boiler tubes and pipes, which suffer severe air jet erosion. Fly ash is a major erodent in that case. Present study is ...
Transient Water Flow and Nitrate Movement Simulation in Partially Saturated Zone
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Water flow through vadose zone is important for soil ecology and for groundwater development. A thorough knowledge of water flow and solute transport through unsaturated zone is also needed for sustainable irrigation ...
Turbulent Anisotropy and Length Scale Variation Over Multiple Shaped Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The turbulent flow characteristics over bed-mounted three different cubical shape bluff bodies are examined experimentally in the water channel facility. The steady and fluctuating flow fields are investigated to analyze ...
Analytical and Numerical Prediction of Springback of SS/Al-Alloy Cladded Sheet in V-Bending
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present work deals with the development of an analytical model incorporating the effects of anisotropy and strain hardening to predict the springback in V-bending of two-ply sheet metal using a punch profile radius of ...
Three-Dimensional Laboratory Experiments on Fate and Transport of LNAPL under Varying Groundwater Flow Conditions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Variations in groundwater flow regimes due to direct draining/pumping and surrounding climatic variabilities may significantly affect the spatial and temporal distribution of hydrocarbon compounds in the subsurface. The ...
Assessment of LNAPL in Subsurface under Fluctuating Groundwater Table Using 2D Sand Tank Experiments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The focus of this study was to investigate the fate and transport of toluene, a light nonaqueous-phase liquids (LNAPLs) in the subsurface region under dynamic groundwater table conditions. A series of experiments were ...
Significance of Prandtl Number on the Heat Transport and Flow Structure in Rotating Rayleigh–Bénard Convection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A direct numerical simulation of rotating Rayleigh–Bénard convection (RBC) for different fluids (Pr=0.015,0.7,1,7,20, and 100) in a cylindrical cell of aspect ratio Γ=0.5 is carried out in this work. The effect of rotation ...
