Non-Fourier Heat Conduction in IC Chip
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Instead of the classic Fourier equation based on diffusion, a hyperbolic equation based on a wave model has been used to predict the rapid transient heat conduction in IC chips. The peak ...
Information Integration of Regulation Texts and Tables for Automated Construction Safety Knowledge Mapping
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The explicit safety knowledge contained in regulations in the form of texts and tables is crucial for construction safety management. However, the presence of rich semantic content within texts and the intricate layout of ...
VR-Based Technologies: Improving Safety Training Effectiveness for a Heterogeneous Workforce from a Physiological Perspective
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The enhancement of construction safety performance heavily relies on effective safety training. While virtual reality (VR) technologies have been utilized to improve construction safety training programs, the extent and ...
Propagation of Waves in Rate-Dependent Plastic Softening Rod and Beam
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The propagation of waves in rods and beams made of rate-dependent softening material is studied in this paper. For rate-dependent materials the governing equation indicates that in the softening state, stress waves may ...
One-Dimensional Compression Behavior of Calcareous Sand and Marine Clay Mixtures
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: More and more oceanic projects involve calcareous sand–marine clay mixtures which behave totally different from pure calcareous sand and marine clay. The effect of clay content on the compression behavior of the calcareous ...
Effect of the Shape Parameter on Droplet Behavior in Multiple Channels of a Proton-Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
