Engineering Properties of Copper Slag–Fly Ash–Dolime Mix and Its Utilization in the Base Course of Flexible Pavements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The main objective of the present study is to quantify the influence of important factors such as fly ash content, dolime content, and curing period on the shear strength and stiffness characteristics of copper slag–fly ...
Boundary Shear in Smooth Rectangular Ducts
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The results of some laboratory experiments are reported concerning the distribution of boundary shear stresses in smooth closed ducts of a rectangular cross section for aspect ratios between 1 and 10. The distributions are ...
Finite-Element Method-Based Model to Study High-Cycle Fatigue in Turbine Blades
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to satisfy the defense challenges of the 21st century, more advanced technologies are needed to build aircraft engines that are lighter, compact, and more powerful than existing designs. Turbine blades are highly ...
Influence of Extension Ratio on the Performance of the Modified Savonius Hydrokinetic Turbine
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In the present investigation, a modified Savonius hydrokinetic turbine of 0.245 m turbine diameter (D), 0.1 overlap ratio, 0.2 shape factor, and 0.002 m blade thickness (t) has been investigated numerically to ...
Experimental and Modeling Studies of Resilient Modulus and Permanent Strain of Stabilized Fly Ash
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the present investigation, geotechnical properties of fly ash lime (FAL) mixes and fly ash cement (FAC) mixes were studied for their use as a subbase material for flexible road pavements. The effects of lime content, ...
Asserting the Applicability of Copper Slag and Fly Ash as Cemented Base Materials in Flexible Pavement from a Full-Scale Field Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This research made innovative use of copper slag and fly ash in the construction of a cemented base course of flexible pavement. A full-scale field study evaluated the structural and functional performance of flexible ...
Environmental Sustainability by Bulk Utilization of Fly Ash and GBFS as Road Subbase Materials
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The underutilization of fly ash, in contrast with its generation, and scarcity of natural aggregates paved the way to unconventional construction approaches, thereby ensuring environmental stability by preserving valuable ...
Structural Evaluation of Flexible Pavement Constructed with Steel Slag–Fly Ash–Lime Mix in the Base Layer
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The concept of utilizing industrial wastes for road construction can be materialized only by evaluating the field performance of roads constructed with these wastes. The present study encompasses the laboratory investigation ...
On the Sensitivity of Wall Stresses in Diseased Arteries to Variable Material Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accurate estimates of stress in an atherosclerotic lesion require knowledge of the material properties of its components (e.g., normal wall, fibrous plaque, calcified regions, lipid pools) that ...
