Coupling Effects of Sloshing and Barge Motion in Variable Bathymetry
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Two partially filled tanks fixed on rectangular barge floating in variable bathymetry is studied based on the linearized potential theory in the frequency domain. The internal sloshing motion is simulated by linearized ...
A Mechanism-Based General Theory for Friction of PTFE/PEEK Composite: Effects of PTFE Morphology and Composite Microstructure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A combined experimental and analytical investigation is conducted to develop a mechanism-based general friction theory for PTFE/PEEK composite. The PTFE/PEEK composites with PTFE and PEEK volume contents ranged from 0% to ...

Computational Micromechanics for High-Temperature Constitutive Equations of Polymer-Matrix Composites With Oxidation Reaction, Damage, and Degradation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The proper determination of high-temperature constitutive properties and damage of polymer-matrix composites (PMC) in an aggressive environment is critical in high-speed aircraft and propulsion ...
Recent Decadal Changes in Heat Waves over China: Drivers and Mechanisms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractObservational analysis indicates significant decadal changes in daytime, nighttime, and compound (both daytime and nighttime) heat waves (HWs) over China across the mid-1990s, featuring a rapid increase in frequency, ...
Rewetting Analysis of a Pressurized Water Reactor Fuel Slab Using Improved Lumped Models
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work analyzes the rewetting of a pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel slab using improved lumped parameter formulations based on Hermite approximations for integrals. The time-dependent two-dimensional rewetting problem ...
