A Practical Formulation for Evaluating Combined Fatigue Damage From High- and Low-Frequency Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Based on Gaussian load processes, a new formula suitable for evaluating the combined fatigue damage due to high- and low-frequency loads is derived. Then, by using of the Winterstein’s ...
Improved Cadmium Removal Induced by Interaction of Nanoscale Zero-Valent Iron and Microplastics Debris
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) is one of the most prevalently used engineered nanomaterials for heavy metals removal. Microplastics (MPs) have been detected extensively in the environment, such as soil, surface water, ...
Pedestrian Dynamics in Real and Simulated World
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The paper examines the knowledge of pedestrian movements, both in real scenarios, and from more recent years, in the virtual simulation realm. Aiming to verify whether it is possible to learn from the study of virtual ...
Terminal Wind Hazard Analyses Based on Assimilated Weather Data And Lagrangian Coherent Structures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The operational LIght Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) data from the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA) is assimilated in a six nest, high resolution Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. The existing radar data ...
Shape Characterization of Fragmented Sand Grains via X-Ray Computed Tomography Imaging
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The mechanical and hydraulic properties of granular materials are fundamentally affected by the grain size and shape. Three samples of uniformly graded quartz sand with different size ranges were subjected to one-dimensional ...
Coupled Three-Dimensional Neutronics and Thermal-Hydraulics Analysis for SCWR Core Typical Transients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Transient performance of China supercritical water-cooled reactor (SCWR) with the rated electric power of 1000 MWel (CSR1000) core during some typical transients, such as control rod (CR) ejection and uncontrolled CR ...
Low-Temperature Bonding of Cu Through Self-Propagating Reaction Under Various Temperatures and Pressures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Low temperature soldering has been realized to create a strong metallurgical interconnection between Cu using the self-propagating exothermic reaction by Al–Ni NanoFoil. This technique presents a great potential for ...
Lagrangian Coherent Structure Analysis of Terminal Winds Detected by Lidar. Part II: Structure Evolution and Comparison with Flight Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: sing observational data from coherent Doppler light detection and ranging (lidar) systems situated at the Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA), the authors extract Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) intersecting the ...
Lagrangian Coherent Structure Analysis of Terminal Winds Detected by Lidar. Part I: Turbulence Structures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The accurate real-time detection of turbulent airflow patterns near airports is important for safety and comfort in commercial aviation. In this paper, a method is developed to identify Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) ...
Quantitative Study of the Action on Rock Mass Failure under the Shock Wave and Gas Pressure in Bench Blasting
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The expansion and shock wave coexisting failure theory has been widely recognized. However, it is not clear whether the main cause of rock mass blasting failure is the shock wave or gas pressure. In this paper, the ...
