RISAnisotropic Damage Effect Tensors for the Symmetrization of the Effective Stress Tensor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Based on the concept of the effective stress and on the description of anisotropic damage deformation within the framework of continuum damage mechanics, a fourth order damage effective tensor ...
A Systematic Comparison and Multi-Objective Optimization of Humid Power Cycles—Part I: Thermodynamics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The steam injected gas turbine (STIG), humid air turbine (HAT), and TOP Humid Air Turbine (TOPHAT) cycles lie at the center of the debate on which humid power cycle will deliver optimal ...
A Systematic Comparison and Multi-Objective Optimization of Humid Power Cycles—Part II: Economics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The steam injected gas turbine (STIG), humid air turbine (HAT), and TOP Humid Air Turbine (TOPHAT) cycles lie at the center of the debate on which humid power cycle will deliver optimal ...
Experimental Investigation of the Submarine Crashback Maneuver
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to decelerate a forward-moving submarine rapidly, often the propeller of the submarine is placed abruptly into reverse rotation, causing the propeller to generate a thrust force in the ...
Experimental Methods for Hydrodynamic Characterization of a Very Large Water Tunnel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The methodology for hydrodynamic characterization of a very large water tunnel is described. Results are presented for the U. S. Navy William B. Morgan Large Cavitation Channel in Memphis, ...
On the Coupling of Designer Experience and Modularity in the Aerothermal Design of Turbomachinery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The turbomachinery aerodynamic design process is characterized both by its complexity and the reliance on designer experience for success. Complexity has led to the design being decomposed into ...
Optimization of Turbine Disk Profiles by Metamorphic Development
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel topology/shape optimization method, Metamorphic Development, is applied to an axisymmetric thermo-elasticity design problem. Based on solid modeling and finite element analysis, optimal ...
An Integrated System for the Aerodynamic Design of Compression Systems—Part I: Development
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of gas turbine engines is a complex problem. This complexity has led to the adoption of a modular design approach, in which a conceptual design phase fixes the values for some ...
An Integrated System for the Aerodynamic Design of Compression Systems—Part II: Application
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The complexity of modern gas turbine engines has led to the adoption of a modular design approach, in which a conceptual design phase fixes the values for a number of parameters and dimensions ...
Pipe Flow Measurements of a Transparent Non-Newtonian Slurry
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental description of the flow structure of non-Newtonian slurries in the laminar, transitional, and full turbulent pipe flow regimes is the primary objective of this research. Experiments ...
