A Novel Design Method for Nonuniform Lattice Structures Based on Topology Optimization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Lattice structures are broadly used in lightweight structure designs and multifunctional applications. Especially, with the unprecedented capabilities of additive manufacturing (AM) technologies and computational optimization ...
Untitled
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractCombined impacts of the Pacific decadal oscillation (PDO) and two types of La Niña on climate anomalies in Europe are studied. Particularly, the conjunction of the negative PDO phase and two different types of La ...
Stability Analysis of Geosynthetic-Reinforced Slopes Considering Multiple Potential Failure Mechanisms Based on the Upper Bound Theorem
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The upper bound theorem (UBT) is widely used in the stability analysis of geosynthetic-reinforced slopes (GRSs). However, the existing research seldom considers multiple potential failure mechanisms when using the UBT to ...
Experimental Study of RC Prefabricated Shear Walls with Shear Keys Affected by a Slotted Floor Slab
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Prefabricated RC shear walls are widely used in practical engineering due to their convenient construction. For ease of transport, they are commonly divided into smaller limbs and assembled on site. Steel panel shear keys ...
Design and Analysis of Concrete-Filled Rectangular Steel Tubular Truss-Arch Composite Bridge Stiffened with PBL
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Under the influence of long time load actions, shrinkage and creep of concrete, temperature variation, and concrete pouring quality, debonding may occur between steel tube and concrete. Debonding affects the mechanism ...
Computational Design and Optimization of Nerve Guidance Conduits for Improved Mechanical Properties and Permeability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) are tubular tissue engineering scaffolds used for nerve regeneration. The poor mechanical properties and porosity have always compromised their performances for guiding and supporting axonal ...

Simulation and Experimental Study on Hydraulic Sandblasting Cutting in Uncontrolled Blowout Well
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A nozzle structure of portable high-pressure hydraulic sandblasting cutting equipment is optimized through simulation analysis and experimental tests in this paper. The hydraulic sandblasting cutting technology uses high ...
A Knowledge-Based Approach Toward Representation and Archiving of Aesthetic Information for Product Conceptual Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The representation and archiving of design information play an essential role in product conceptual design by enabling the design teams to reuse existing solutions. However, most existing studies on information management ...
Buoyancy Effect of Bristles for a Brush Seal with Disturbance-Suppressing Holes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Bristles in the first few rows float up from the rotor surface due to the radial airflow in the gap between the front plate and bristle pack, which directly affects seal performance and the service life of a brush seal. ...
