Characteristic Analysis of Expressway Development in China and Its Prospects Based on Modern Integrated Transport System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The authors analyzed the essential requirement of expressway construction by modem integrated transport system. It first presents the characteristic analysis of expressway in China from several aspects including highway ...
Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of High-Toughness Fiber-Reinforced Cementitious Composites after Exposure to Elevated Temperatures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Wave Based Method for Free and Forced Vibration Analysis of Cylindrical Shells With Discontinuity in Thickness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wave based method (WBM) is presented to analyze the free and forced vibration of cylindrical shells with discontinuity in thickness. The hull is first divided into multiple segments according to the locations of thickness ...
A New Method for Time Series Filtering near Endpoints
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Time series filtering (e.g., smoothing) can be done in the spectral domain without loss of endpoints. However, filtering is commonly performed in the time domain using convolutions, resulting in lost points near the series ...
Analytical Ratcheting Limits of Straight Pipeline under Internal Pressure and Reversed Bending Moments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Excessive ratcheting deformation is a typical failure mode of pressurized pipeline under repeated loads in practice. There are still very few studies regarding the analytical ratcheting limits of pressurized pipes subjected ...
Thermal Lagging of Multilayered Structure in Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present study, we numerically investigate the thermal lagging behavior on the hard disk drives in heat-assisted magnetic recording systems via the optical absorption model. The influences of overcoats, laser radius, ...
Simulated Crack and Slip Plane Propagation in Soil Slopes with Embedded Discontinuities Using XFEM
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To simulate the onset and growth of strong discontinuities (cracks or slip planes) and the failure mechanism in soil slopes with reasonable accuracy, a program was developed based on the existing extended finite-element ...
Modeling and Prototype of a Machining Robot With R(3-RUHR)/UURP Hybrid Module
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hybrid mechanisms combine the advantages of serial mechanisms and parallel mechanisms and have better stiffness and a larger workspace. In this paper, a novel workspace strongly coupled machining robot mechanism with a ...
Effect of Super-Absorbent Polymer on the Undrained Shear Behavior of Cemented Dredged Clay with High Water Content
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of isotropically consolidated undrained triaxial tests were performed on cemented clay with super-absorbent polymer (SAP) at high water content to investigate the effect of SAP content on the undrained shear ...
Image Fusion for Infrared Thermography and Inspection of Pressure Vessel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Infrared thermography is a nondestructive evaluation method with an increasing span of applications. In this paper the pixel-level image fusion of infrared light and visible light image for ...
