Elastic Plastic Analysis of Adhesive Sliding Contacts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The effect of adhesion on the elasticplastic deformation of sliding contacts was examined with the finite element method. The adhesive interaction of a rigid asperity moving over a homogeneous elasticplastic halfspace was ...
A New Diffusion Scheme for Numerical Models Based on Full Irreversibility
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this work, the forecast accuracy of a numerical weather prediction model is improved by emulating physical dissipation as suggested by the second law of thermodynamics, which controls the irreversible evolutionary ...
An Experimental Investigation of Churning Power Losses of a Gearbox
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, load-independent (spin) power losses of a gearbox operating under dip-lubrication conditions are investigated experimentally using a final-drive helical gear pair from an automotive transmission as the example ...
Thermal Performance Study of a Water Tank for a Solar System With a Fresnel Lens
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The heat transfer characteristics of a rectangular water tank used in a solar water heating system with a Fresnel Len were investigated qualitatively and quantitatively through the theoretical and numerical methods. The ...
Comprehensive Study of Optical, Physical, Chemical, and Radiative Properties of Total Columnar Atmospheric Aerosols over China: An Overview of Sun–Sky Radiometer Observation Network (SONET) Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAn overview of Sun?Sky Radiometer Observation Network (SONET) measurements in China is presented. Based on observations at 16 distributed SONET sites in China, atmospheric aerosol parameters are acquired via ...
