Discussion: “Behavior of Dilute Polymer Solutions in the Inlet Region of a Pipe” (Bilgen, E., 1973, ASME J. Appl. Mech., 40, pp. 381–387)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
The Optimization Problem With Optimal Tolerance Assignment and Full Acceptance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The conventional optimization problem, where the nominal values of the design variables are of interest, is extended to include the optimal allocation of manufacturing tolerances. Thus the ...
The Optimal Tolerance Assignment With Less Than Full Acceptance
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes an approach that integrates the relationship between design and production engineers through the theory of nonlinear optimization. It attempts to cope with the problem of ...
Letter to the Editor commenting on “A Poroelastic Finite Element Formulation Including Transport and Swelling in Soft Tissue Structure” (Simon, B. R., Liable, J. P., Pflaster, D., Yuan, Y., and Krag, M. H., 1996, ASME J. Biomech. Eng., 118, pp. 1–9)

On the Electric Potentials Inside a Charged Soft Hydrated Biological Tissue: Streaming Potential Versus Diffusion Potential
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The main objective of this study is to determine the nature of electric fields inside articular cartilage while accounting for the effects of both streaming potential and diffusion potential. ...
Alternative Transportation Fuels: Distribution Infrastructure for Hydrogen and Ethanol in Iowa
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ethanol and hydrogen are receiving considerable attention as alternative fuels for transportation. They are being promoted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve U.S. energy independence. This paper analyzes pipeline, ...
Impoundment Liner Repair by Electrophoresis of Clay
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Electrophoresis of clay particles from dilute suspensions is an innovative technology to seal leaks in operating surface impoundments that does not require removal of impoundment contents, exposure of workers to contaminants, ...
Refueling and Infrastructure Costs of Expanding Access to E85 in Pennsylvania
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: United States federal regulations require increasing renewable fuel blending in the transportation sector, a majority of which is corn ethanol. Nationally, ethanol is blended with gasoline up to 10% (E10) for use in ...
Discussion: “On the Thermodynamical Admissibility of the Triphasic Theory of Charged Hydrated Tissues” (Huyghe, J. M., Wilson, W., and Malakpoor, K., ASME J. Biomech. Eng., 2009, 131, p. 044504)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We feel it is necessary for us to point out some critical mathematical errors and erroneous statements that Huyghe et al. made in the manuscript listed above (hereafter, referred to as the ...
Prototype System for Multidisciplinary Shared Cyberinfrastructure: Chesapeake Bay Environmental Observatory
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A prototype system for a Chesapeake Bay Environmental Observatory (CBEO) is under development by a multidisciplinary team of researchers from the domains of environmental engineering, marine science, hydrology, ecology, ...
