Abstract: Unilateral, bilateral, and triaxial shaking table tests are conducted to study the seismic response of a three-story base-isolated steel structure. The lateral force distribution formulas specified in the

Abstract: The effect of structured roughness on the heat transfer of water flowing through minichannels was experimentally investigated in this study. The test channels were formed by two 12.7 mm wide ...

Abstract: This work presents a modified modal strain energy change (M-MSEC) method and its corresponding iteration process to detect damage to frame structures. Analytical results of a three-dimensional frame structure demonstrate ...

Abstract: A model is developed to analyze the effect of axial conduction on heat transfer during single-phase flow in microchannels. The axial heat conduction in the wall introduces heat flow toward the ...

Abstract: Waste tire pyrolysis has the advantages of economy, environmental protection, and high energy conversion rate; however, there is little research on the application of pyrolysis carbon black (PCB), which accounts for a high ...

Abstract: The objective of this study was to explore the engineering application potential of waste cigarette butts and to investigate the effect of waste cellulose acetate (WCA) as reinforcement material on the performance of asphalt ...

Abstract: Micro/nano-textured Si wafers manufactured using metal-assisted chemical etching (MACE) have been the focus of several studies, but the mechanism of bubble generation during the MACE process affecting textured surfaces has ...

Abstract: Having published some of the most widely cited publications over the last 30 years, Professor Satish G. Kandlikar has been among the most prominent researcher in the field of heat transfer. Throughout these years, he has ...
