Analysis of Tube-Tubesheet Joint Loading Including Thermal Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The tube-to-tubesheet rolling process is reexamined using a two-dimensional elastic plastic analysis. In addition to room temperature rolling, subsequent thermal cycling of the joint is considered. ...
Analysis of Mechanical Behavior of Pavement Slab Humping by High Temperature
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In order to avoid or delay the phenomenon of pavement slab humping by high temperatures in summer, from the point of view of mechanical behaviors, the reason of pavement slab humping by high temperatures in summer was ...
Optimization of the Nodalization of Nuclear System Thermal-Hydraulic Code Applied on Primary Loop Benchmark
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In best estimate plus uncertainty approach for thermal-hydraulic simulation in nuclear engineering, a crucial step for the qualification of the scenario simulation is the discretization, i.e., the nodalization of nuclear ...
Extreme Wind Speed Map for Mainland China Considering the Directional Effect
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposes a framework for mapping the extreme wind speed for mainland China considering the directional effect. To this end, long-term observations of the daily maximum surface wind speed and associated wind ...
Research on Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Homing Method Based on Fuzzy-Q-FastSLAM
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Autonomous docking guidance is one of the key technologies to achieve the autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) docking with the sub-sea docking station (DS) to realize long-term resident operation. In the process of AUV ...
Comparative Study of Uncoupled Ductile-Fracture Models on Fracture Prediction of Structural Steels under Monotonic Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Since the middle of the last century, numerous fracture models have been reported in the literature. These models, whether proposed on the basis of theoretical derivation, experimental observation, or a combination of the ...
Numerical Investigation of Tip Clearance Effects on the Performance and Flow Pattern Within a Sewage Pump
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sewage pumps are one of the most popular types of fluid machinery in municipal, industrial, and environmental engineering and many other fields. The influence of tip clearance size on the pump performance and internal flow ...
Gamma-Ray Spectrum Analysis of Chang’E-1 for Lunar Detection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Gamma-ray spectrum analysis was essential for radioactive environmental monitoring, and it had been widely used in many areas of nuclear engineering. However, for the low-energy region of gamma-ray ...
Experimental Study on Progressive Collapse of 3D Steel Frames under Concentrated and Uniformly Distributed Loading Conditions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Structures are expected to be robust enough to avoid widespread local failure caused by extreme loading events, so that the complete or disproportional collapse of buildings can be averted. In the last decades, numerous ...
Three-Dimensional Composite Floor Systems under Column-Removal Scenarios
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, four 1/3-scaled enhanced steel frame–composite floor specimens were tested quasi-statically under a column-removal scenario. One specimen was the control test and the other three were different in terms of ...
