Influence of Mean Water Depth and a Subsurface Sandbar on the Onset and Strength of Wave Breaking
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wave breaking in the open ocean and coastal zones remains an intriguing yet incompletely understood process, with a strong observed association with wave groups. Recent numerical study of the evolution of fully nonlinear, ...
Multiscale Experimental Investigation of the Influence of Pores on the Static and Dynamic Strength of Cementitious Materials
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This work studied the influence of pores of different scales on the strength of cementitious materials. A method to make pores in cementitious materials with particles of soft materials was developed and proved. With this ...
Experimental Investigation and a Predictive Model of the Strength Evolution of Rubberized Cementitious Materials Based on the Virtual Pore Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Mixing waste rubber in cementitious materials such as concrete is an effective way to reuse the rubber, which is important due to its environmental significance. This work predicted the strength evolution of rubberized ...
Characteristic Analysis of Wind Turbine Gearbox Considering Non Torque Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the design of wind turbine gearboxes, the most important objective is to improve the durability to guarantee a service life of more than 20 years. This work investigates how external loads caused by wind fluctuation ...
Moistening Deformation Constitutive Model for Unsaturated Loess
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The quantification of the moistening deformation for wetting-sensitive unsaturated loess is of direct interest in regions implementing geotechnical engineering. Many constitutive models are available for describing the ...
Nitrogen Removal in Recirculating Sand Filter Systems with Upflow Anaerobic Components
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Septic systems can present a risk to human health by releasing highly soluble nitrate–nitrogen into the groundwater. A research and demonstration study undertaken in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, evaluated several promising ...
