Durability and Fatigue of Basalt Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Bars Gripped with Steel Wedge Anchors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the test results of a durability study on a novel basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bar-anchor system. The BFRP bars were exposed to saline and alkaline solutions for 10 weeks before being anchored ...
Thermal Performance of Next Generation of Modulated Pump Lasers in Telco Equipment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present investigation numerically modeled the thermal behavior of the laser diode using the parabolic transient conduction equation. In addition, the current study compared the thermal performance ...
Concrete Contribution to Shear Strength of Beams Reinforced with Basalt Fiber-Reinforced Bars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports on the shear behavior of concrete beams reinforced with basalt fiber-reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars. In this study, 10 reinforced concrete beams with no transverse reinforcement, including 2 beams ...

Influence of Discrete Heat Source Location on Natural Convection Heat Transfer in a Vertical Square Enclosure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical study is carried out to investigate the influence of discrete heat sources on natural convection heat transfer in a square enclosure filled with air. The enclosure has two vertical ...
Innovative Repair of Severely Corroded T-Beams Using Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper offers an innovative technique for rehabilitation of severely corroded reinforced concrete (RC) T-beams using fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM). Eight RC T-beam specimens were constructed and tested ...
Modeling Studies of the Dynamic Control of Hepatic Glucose Balance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The survival of mammals is dependent upon a relatively constant, adequate supply of glucose to the central nervous system, despite large fluctuations in the amount of food available. When food ...
Thermal Management of Surface Mount Power Magnetic Components
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical and experimental study of conduction heat transfer from low power magnetic components with gull wing leads was conducted to determine the effects of distributing the power loss ...
Bond Durability of Basalt Fiber–Reinforced Polymer Bars Embedded in Concrete under Direct Pullout Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The use of basalt fiber–reinforced polymer (BFRP) bars as a reinforcing material has gained increasing interest worldwide. However, few studies have reported on these bars’ performance in concrete when exposed to harsh ...
