An Edge-Based Smoothed Finite-Element Method for Vortex-Induced Vibration in Generalized Newtonian Fluids
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Application of an edge-based smoothed finite-element method (ESFEM) to vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a circular cylinder in generalized Newtonian fluids is presented. The incompressible Navier–Stokes equations incorporating ...
A New Moving Kirchhoff–Love Plate Element for Dynamic Analysis of Vehicle–Pavement Interaction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new moving Kirchhoff–Love plate element is developed in this work to accurately and efficiently calculate the dynamic response of vehicle–pavement interaction. Since the vehicle can only affect a small region nearby, the ...
Crowdsourced Meteorological Data to Supplement Limited Official Sources: A Survey and Case Study of Precipitation Monitoring in Guangzhou, China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Efficient Algorithm for Evaluation of Statistical Moments of Performance Functions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Evaluating the statistical moments of performance functions from the perspective of balancing accuracy and efficiency remains a challenge. This paper proposes an efficient algorithm for evaluating the statistical moments ...
A New Three-Dimensional Moving Timoshenko Beam Element for Moving Load Problem Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new three-dimensional moving Timoshenko beam element is developed for dynamic analysis of a moving load problem with a very long beam structure. The beam has small deformations and rotations, and bending, shear, and ...
Spatial Characterization of Strain Variation in the Profile of Tunnel Structure Using Monitoring Data and Numerical Modeling
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The rapid proliferation of tunnel construction presents challenges to the safe operation of tunnels. Although Structural Health Monitoring Systems (SHMSs) have been widely used to prevent tunnel disasters, it is still ...
Resilience Enhancement of an Urban Rail Transit Network by Optimizing the Locations and Construction Sequences of New Lines: A Scenario Model Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The addition of new lines to an existing urban rail transit (URT) network sequentially helps improve its operation. However, only a few studies have improved URT networks by simultaneously optimizing the locations and ...
