Alterations in Critical Radii of Bluntness of Shock Wave Boundary Layer Interaction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Any configuration consisting of flat plate attached to a ramp experiences shock wave boundary layer interaction (SWBLI) at supersonic or hypersonic Mach numbers. This interaction can lead to flow separation at the ramp ...
Modeling Origin-Destination Effects on Roundabout Operations and Inflow Control
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Traffic flows around roundabouts have been found to be dependent on origin-destination flows, but the true nature of this relationship is not properly understood. Present analyses are based on either gap acceptance models ...
Comparative Analysis of Environmental and Social Costs of Trenchless Cured-in-Place Pipe Renewal Method with Open-Cut Pipeline Replacement for Sanitary Sewers
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The development of underground infrastructure, environmental concerns, and economic trends is influencing society, resulting in the advancement of technology for more efficient, environment-friendly, and cost-effective ...
Developing a Risk Assessment Model for Trenchless Technology: Box Jacking Technique
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Overcut is required during bore excavation in the box jacking (BJ) technique to facilitate steering of culverts and to reduce friction. BJ is a trenchless construction technique to install rectangular box culverts under ...
Computational Analysis of Transverse Sonic Injection in Supersonic Crossflow Using RANS Models
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Transverse injection at sonic speed from a rectangular slot into a supersonic crossflow is numerically explored with an indigenously developed parallel three-dimensional (3D) Reynold-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solver ...
A Short-Term Naturalistic Driving Study on Predicting Comfort Thresholds for Horizontal Curves on Two-Lane Rural Highways
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The comfort threshold is one of the basic controls in designing horizontal alignment. Some studies have implied that the recommended comfort thresholds are conservative because they were determined using the traditional ...
Integrating Compact Thermal Models in CFD Simulations of Electronic Packages
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compact thermal models (CTMs) are simplified multi-nodal thermal resistor network representations of the detailed material and geometric structure of the electronic package. CTMs predict the thermal ...
Proto TAI++: Exploring Perceptually Consistent Creation of Planar Shape Assemblies Through Multimodal Tangible Interactions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We explore tangible 3D interactions that allow for geometric and perceptual correspondence between a midair modality and the 3D elements it controls. To demonstrate our approach, we use a concrete application scenario ...
Proto-TAI++: Exploring Perceptually Consistent Creation of Planar Shape Assemblies Through Multimodal Tangible Interactions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We explore tangible 3D interactions that allow for geometric and perceptual correspondence between a midair modality and the 3D elements it controls. To demonstrate our approach, we use a concrete application scenario ...
Handy Potter: Rapid Exploration of Rotationally Symmetric Shapes Through Natural Hand Motions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We present a paradigm for natural and exploratory shape modeling by introducing novel 3D interactions for creating, modifying, and manipulating 3D shapes using arms and hands. Though current design tools provide complex ...
