Area Computation by Coordinates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Area computation by coordinates has become the conventional method for application purposes. The structure and forms of the equations used for this method are investigated in this study. Various factors that result in a ...
Error Properties of Stadia Measurements with Incomplete Intercept
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The error properties of the stadia measurement with incomplete-intercept readings were analyzed in this study. Several numerical experiments were also conducted. Finally, a comparison was made on the magnitude of the ...
Least-Squares Solution for Dangling-Line Case in Cadastral-Map Resurvey
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A variety of practical problems have been experienced in the cadastral-map resurvey in Taiwan. One of them concerns the dangling boundary lines shared with a number of land parcels. Conventionally, this problem is resolved ...
Evaluating Information Loss of SRTM DEM Data with Different Grid Sizes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The digital elevation products produced by the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) are disseminated with different resolutions. This study investigates the differences in information content between different resolutions. ...
National Datum Uncertainty due to Reference Frame Transformation: Case Study for the Geodetic Datum of Taiwan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the advent of global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs), many national geodetic datums have been established with modern technology and referenced to a specific epoch of the international terrestrial reference frame ...
High Temperature Lubricating Behavior of NiAl Matrix Composites With Addition of CuO
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: High temperature selflubricating NiAl matrix composites with addition of CuO (15, 20, and 25 wt.%) were fabricated by powder metallurgy technique, and the tribological behavior from room temperature to 1000 آ°C was ...
Mechanical Properties and Structure of Laser Beam and Wide Gap Brazed Joints Produced Using Mar M247–Amdry DF3 Powders
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The microstructure and mechanical properties of materials produced by wide gap brazing (WGB) and laser beam (LBW) cladding with different blends of Mar M247 and Amdry DF-3 brazing powders were studied. It was shown that ...
Site Selection of Reference Tidal Station for National Height Datum in Taiwan
