Abstract: Criteria for estimating the first two probabilistic moments of the normalized parameters of

Abstract: This manuscript presents a new nonlocal homogenization model (NHM) for wave dispersion and attenuation in elastic and viscoelastic periodic layered media. Homogenization with multiple spatial scales based on asymptotic ...

Abstract: The conditions of meshing and contact in hypoid gear drives depend substantially on the machinetool settings to be applied. Determination of gear geometry is the first step in the design process of a hypoid gear drive. An ...

Abstract: his work explores the potential of online parameter estimation as a technique for model error treatment under an imperfect model scenario, in an ensemble-based data assimilation system, using a simple atmospheric general ...

Abstract: The traditional techniques employed in the development of road infrastructure projects consume large amounts of energy and nonrenewable resources. This paper evaluates some consequences of roadway construction and maintenance ...

Abstract: Cyclic peptide nanotubes (CPNs) have unique chemical and mechanical features that squarely position them to tackle persistent challenges in sensor technologies, tissue scaffolds, templates for organic and hybrid electronics, ...

Abstract: The residential building sector is one of the largest energy-consuming sectors. Because of this, several innovations and programs are being implemented to promote energy efficiency. This study evaluated carbon mitigation ...

Abstract: A theoretical study on the maximum evaporation rate obtainable in a smallscale indirect solar dryer is presented, considering evaporation of free water. A mathematical model of the evolution of the temperature and the ...

Abstract: Atomization of liquids is a phenomenon that involves many variables. In order to find correlations for the effects of an extended set of variables, dimensional analysis and experimental design ...
