RISPerformance Comparison of Enthalpy Recovery Devices Using Liquid Desiccant and Desiccant Wheel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Heat recovery between outdoor air and indoor exhaust air is an effective approach for energy-saving in the air-conditioning system. Performances of enthalpy recovery devices using liquid desiccant (LD) and desiccant wheel ...
Shimmy Suppression of an Aircraft Nose Landing Gear Using Torsional Nonlinear Energy Sink
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Shimmy motion may occur for an aircraft nose landing gear (NLG) during its takeoff, landing, and taxiing procedure, which is an undesirable motion and should be suppressed. Here, a novel torsional nonlinear energy sink ...
An Adaptive Decoupling Register Control Method for Roll-to-Roll Printing Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Model-based decoupling control methods have been widely used in the register control of Roll-to-Roll (R2R) printing systems due to their advantage in dealing with couplings. While they achieve a certain decoupling effect, ...
ENSO Asymmetry in CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he El Niño?La Niña asymmetry is evaluated in 14 coupled models from phase 5 of the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5). The results show that an underestimate of ENSO asymmetry, a common problem noted in CMIP3 ...
Vibration Analysis of an Elastic Beam Subjected to a Moving Beam with Flexible Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The vibration problem of a simply supported beam subjected to a moving elastic structure is investigated. The model consists of two Euler-Bernoulli beams which are assumed to be connected by flexible springs at two discrete ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAn evaluation of El Niño?La Niña asymmetry is conducted in the two recent NCAR coupled models (CCSM4 and CESM1) sharing the same ocean component. Results show that two coupled models generally underestimate observed ...
Tropical Water Vapor and Cloud Feedbacks in Climate Models: A Further Assessment Using Coupled Simulations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: By comparing the response of clouds and water vapor to ENSO forcing in nature with that in Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP) simulations by some leading climate models, an earlier evaluation of tropical cloud ...
Application of Lignin-Stabilized Silty Soil in Highway Subgrade: A Macroscale Laboratory Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lignin is an industrial by-product, stockpiles of which are rapidly increasing worldwide due to growing demand. Highway subgrade construction has been identified as one of the viable answers to consume huge quantities of ...
Reclaimed Lignin-Stabilized Silty Soil: Undrained Shear Strength, Atterberg Limits, and Microstructure Characteristics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Lignin is an organic industrial by-product, stockpiles of which are rapidly accumulating worldwide. A feasibility investigation was carried out with respect to the stabilization of silty soils using lignin. The fall cone ...
Effects of Different Friction Coefficients on Input Torque Distribution in the Bolt Tightening Process Based on the Energy Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bolted joints are one of the most common fastening methods in engineering applications. To meet the requirements of structural parts, the torque method is often used for controlling the bolted joint performance. However, ...
