Forecasting Convection with a “Scale-Aware” Tiedtke Cumulus Parameterization Scheme at Kilometer Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A scale-aware convective parameterization based on the Tiedtke scheme is developed and tested in the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model and the Model for Prediction Across Scales (MPAS) for a few convective cases ...
Experiment Research of Phase Inversion in Mineral Oil-Water Two-Phase Flow in Horizontal Pipe
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In oil-water two-phase dispersed flow, phase inversion may occur when the continuous phase becomes dispersed. This phenomenon, which controls the nature of the phase in contact with the pipe, ...
Category of Derailment Mechanism and Prevention for High-Speed Vehicle
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Vehicle derailment is difficult to explore because accidents are caused by many factors. In this paper, derailment behaviors are divided into three categories: friction-type derailment, structure-type derailment, and ...
Behavior of FRP Jacketed Concrete Columns under Eccentric Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes a study on the behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) jacketed square concrete columns subjected to eccentric loading. The effect of strain gradient on the behavior of concrete columns confined by ...
Impact Factors for Fatigue Design of Steel I-Girder Bridges Considering the Deterioration of Road Surface Condition
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the impact factor (IM) in LRFD bridge design specifications for fatigue design and to propose a method for determining reasonable IMs for the fatigue design of steel I-girder bridges ...
Route Guidance System Based on OSPF Protocol
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Route Guidance System (RGS) is a representative part of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). The objective of this paper is to propose a framework of RGS based on Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) protocol, a widely used ...
Full-Scale Test of a Steel–Concrete Composite Floor System with Moment-Resisting Connections under a Middle-Edge Column Removal Scenario
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To investigate the load-resisting mechanisms and responses of typical steel–concrete composite frames under the progressive collapse scenario, a 2×1 bay full-scale steel–concrete composite floor system was quasi-statically ...
Discrete-Element Modeling of Cemented Granular Material Using Mixed-Mode Cohesive Zone Model
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents an energy-controlled fracture model to simulate mechanical behavior of cemented granular material (CGM). A modified mixed-mode cohesive zone model is developed to describe the damage behavior of the ...
Development and Experimental Study of Disc Spring–Based Self-Centering Devices for Seismic Resilience
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A novel self-centering device that employs disc springs as its kernel components is developed and experimentally verified in this study. The device is suitable for use in self-centering braced frames and is expected to ...
Modeling of Bubble Expansion-Induced Cell Mechanical Profile in Laser-Assisted Cell Direct Writing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cell damage due to the mechanical impact during laser-assisted cell direct writing has been observed and is a possible hurdle for broad applications of fragile cell direct writing. The objective ...
