Data-Driven Concept Network for Inspiring Designers’ Idea Generation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Big-data mining brings new challenges and opportunities for engineering design, such as customer-needs mining, sentiment analysis, knowledge discovery, etc. At the early phase of conceptual design, designers urgently need ...
Experimental and Numerical Study of Heat Transfer and Pressure Loss in a Swirl Multi-Pass Channel With Convergent Jet Slots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a comparative experimental and numerical study of the heat transfer and pressure loss in a swirl multi-pass channel with tangential jet slots, and another baseline multi-pass channel with 180-deg U-bends ...
A Six Degrees-of-Freedom Vibration Isolation Platform Supported by a Hexapod of Quasi-Zero-Stiffness Struts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A platform supported by a hexapod of quasi-zero-stiffness (QZS) struts is proposed to provide a solution for low-frequency vibration isolation in six degrees-of-freedom (6DOFs). The QZS strut is developed by combining a ...
Urbanization Effect on the Diurnal Temperature Range: Different Roles under Solar Dimming and Brightening
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ased on the 1960?2009 meteorological data from 559 stations across China, the urbanization effect on the diurnal temperature range (DTR) was evaluated in this study. Different roles of urbanization were specially detected ...
Ecological Conservation– and Economic Development–Based Multiobjective Land-Use Optimization: Case Study of a Rapidly Developing City in Central China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ecological conservation has long been a hot topic in land-use planning. However, ecological conservation conflicts with economic development in the process of urbanization, which has been noted in a great many studies. In ...
Quantitative Evaluation on the Evolution of Water Cone Behavior in a Heavy Oil Reservoir With Bottom Water
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to solve the problem of the unclear understanding of the water cone behavior and its influencing factors of horizontal well in a heavy oil reservoir with bottom water, in this paper, a series of physical models ...
The Antiwear and Friction-Reducing Performance of Magnesium Silicate Hydroxide/Graphite Nanocomposite as a Lubricant Additive
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, magnesium silicate hydroxide-graphite (MSH-C) and magnesium silicate hydroxide-graphene oxide (MSH-GO) composites were prepared by doping magnesium silicate hydroxide (MSH) with micron-sized few-layer ...
Multicondition Optimization and Experimental Measurements of a Double Blade Centrifugal Pump Impeller
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to improve internal unsteady flow in a doubleblade centrifugal pump (DBCP), this study used major geometric parameters of the original design as the initial values, heads at three conditions (i.e., 80% design flow ...
Experimental Study on the Cavitation Characteristics of an Oil Jet Pump With Multiple Nozzles for the Lubrication System in a Steam Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cavitation characteristics of oil jet pumps with multiple nozzles were studied using high frequency response pressure transducers with Mobile DTE Light Oil in experiment, which has an environment the same as that in the ...
Reduced Working Temperature of Quantum Dots-Light-Emitting Diodes Optimized by Quantum Dots at Silica-on-Chip Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) composed of blue LED chip, yellow phosphor, and red quantum dots (QDs) are considered as a potential alternative for next-generation artificial light source with their high luminous ...
