Runoff Prediction under Different Precipitation Scenarios Based on SWAT Model and Stochastic Simulation of Precipitation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To predict runoff under different annual precipitation and reflect the impact of annual precipitation and its inner-annual distribution on the runoff process, the soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) model is combined ...
A Deep Learning–Based Approach for Empirical Modeling of Single-Point Wave Spectra in Open Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Reexamining Vehicle-Actuation Strategies at Isolated Signalized Intersections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper uses simulation to assess intersection performance under enhanced vehicle-actuated signal control. The enhanced strategies seek to: (1) terminate green time in such a way as to promote use of the clearance ...
Numerical Investigation on Bubble Growth and Merger in Microchannel Flow Boiling With Self-Rewetting Fluid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There exist some problems such as flow instability and critical heat flux (CHF) caused by the local dryout phenomenon, which is an obstacle to the application of microchannel flow boiling heat sink. Utilizing self-rewetting ...
Subcooled Flow Boiling on Micro-Porous Structured Copper Surface in a Vertical Mini-Gap Channel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An experimental investigation of subcooled flow boiling in a rectangular mini-gap channel with the dimension of 0.5 mm × 5 mm was conducted with deionized water as the working fluid. Fabricated by electroless plating method ...
A Novel Integrated Method for the Risk Assessment of Ship-to-Ship LNG Bunkering Operations
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In recent years, liquefied natural gas (LNG) gradually has become an alternative fuel for ships. For targeted safety management of ship-to-ship LNG bunkering, this study developed a new method to identify, quantify, and ...
Development of a High-Accuracy Inertia Simulation System for Drive Joints of Space Station Transfer Arm
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: With a focus on crewed spaceflight and space station construction, this research developed a high-accuracy inertia simulation system for the drive joints of the space station transfer arm. To achieve this objective, both ...
Modeling Study on the Geometric Optimization of Thermoelectric Modules
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The performance of thermoelectric power generators (TEGs) primarily depends on the properties of the thermoelectric materials employed. For conventional thermoelectric modules (TEM) utilizing the same material, the geometric ...
Reliability Analysis for Structures With Multiple Temporal and Spatial Parameters Based on the Effective First-Crossing Point
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For efficiently estimating the dynamic failure probability of the structure with the multiple temporal and spatial parameters, a transferred limit state function technique is first proposed in this paper. By finding the ...
Finite-Element Method to Predict Reinforcing Bar Buckling in RC Structures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Buckling of longitudinal bars is a common form of damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures subjected to earthquakes. Previous research has illustrated the impact of cyclic loading on bar buckling which often occurs ...
