Large Amplitude Asymmetric Waves in a Spinning Membrane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Linear transverse vibrations and wave motions of a spinning membrane have been studied by Lamb and Southwell [1]. This Note gives an exact solution for nonlinear, flexural, asymmetric waves for ...
Rheological Response of Human Brain Tissue in Shear
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Head injury is often attributed to transient shear stresses arising from rotation of the brain in the cranial cavity. This paper deals with the experimental determination and analytical ...
Non-Newtonian Fluid Flow in a Reservoir—An Application to Hydraulic Fracturing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A formulation for the flow of a power law non-Newtonian fluid in a porous-permeable medium represented by a nonlinear partial differential equation is presented. This governing equation is ...
An Exact Solution for Pistonlike Leak-Off of Compressible Fluids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Exact solutions associated with the problem of a compressible or an incompressible fluid displacing a compressible reservoir fluid are derived. Simplified forms for the fluid leak-off coefficients, ...
Nonlinear Constitutive Relations for Human Brain Tissue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Head injury modeling studies warrant detailed investigations into the rheological behavior of brain tissue. This paper deals with the development of the concept of a power function and employs ...
Stress Response Investigations Related to In-Situ Gasification of Coal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The influence of in-situ stresses and thermal effects on underground gasification of bituminous coals is studied. Evaluations of temperature profiles, stress magnitudes and stress intensity factors ...
Thermo-Elastic Responses Associated With Cavities and Cracks in Infinite Media
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The increased adaption of classical thermo-elasticity solutions for rock mechanics applications has been evident in recent years. In this paper, specialized thermo-elastic solutions for a triaxial ...
General Solutions for Pistonlike Displacement of Compressible Fluids in Porous Media
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Exact solutions for the one-dimensional problem of a compressible fluid having a time-dependent pressure at the source (fracture face) and displacing a compressible reservoir fluid are generated. ...
Three-Dimensional Modeling of Hydraulic Fractures in Layered Media: Part I—Finite Element Formulations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A comprehensive model represented by a set of equations governing the mechanics of planar hydraulic fracture propagation in a multi-layered reservoir is presented. A general-purpose integral ...
