RISDynamics of Air-Lubricated Slider Bearings for Noncontact Magnetic Recording
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: One of the key technologies which led to the success of modern magnetic disk storage devices is the development of self acting gas lubricated slider bearings for positioning a magnetic head ...
Time Interval Damage Potential of Seismic Testing Waveforms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The concept of time interval response spectrum is introduced for characterizing the damage potential or the likelihood of a waveform to cause multiple mode response. By modifying slightly a ...
Fluid Movement in a Channel With Permeable Walls Covered by Porous Media: A Model of Lung Alveolar Sheet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The smallest microscopic blood vessels in the human lung are organized into sheet-like networks. These sheets form the walls of the 300 million alveoli in which air flows due to breathing. ...
Solute Distribution in the Flow in a Channel Bounded by Porous Layers: A Model of the Lung
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The tracer (indicator-dilution) technique is often used to measure the volume of interstitial water in the lung tissue. The basic hypotheses required for the validity of the formula: volume = ...
Longitudinal Dispersion of Tracer Particles in the Blood Flowing in a Pulmonary Alveolar Sheet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The analysis of G. I. Taylor on the dispersion of solutes in a circular cylindrical tube is extended to the case of flow in a channel bounded by porous layers. Creeping flow in the channel ...
Dynamic Response of Flexibly Supported Liquid‐Storage Tanks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A refined method is presented for evaluating the impulsive components of response of upright, cylindrical liquid‐storage tanks that are supported through a rigid circular foundation at the surface of a homogeneous, elastic ...
Fatigue-Seismic Ratcheting Interactions in Pressurized Elbows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Three dynamic tests on pressurized elbows involving fatigue-ratcheting as the major failure mode are investigated. The fatigue analysis is carried out with two approaches: the first is global ...
Axisymmetric Elastic-Plastic FE Analysis of Pressurized Elbows
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A variational formulation for the pure in-plane bending problem of pressurized elbows with arbitrary cross section, written in the 3-D infinitesimal displacement continuum mechanics framework, and ...
Inference of Dynamic Shear Modulus from Lotung Downhole Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Downhole ground motions recorded at the Lotung Large-Scale Seismic Test (LSST) site were used in this paper to infer in-situ dynamic soil properties. The purposes were (1) to provide field evidence of nonlinear soil behavior ...
Climatology and Analysis of High-Impact, Low Predictive Skill Severe Weather Events in the Northeast United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis study identifies high-impact severe weather events with poor predictive skill over the northeast United States using Storm Prediction Center (SPC) convective outlooks. The objectives are to build a climatology ...
