Characteristics and Kinetic Analysis of Ignition for Different Gasoline Surrogate Fuel Models
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Based on the experimental and the calculated results, the differences and similarities of ignition characteristics for different gasoline surrogate fuels have been investigated in this paper. The results show that the ...
Analysis of the Influence of Dual Spark Plugs on the Combustion Stability of a Shale-Gas Engine
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To improve the thermal efficiency of a shale-gas engine and reduce the cycle variations in the engine, this study adopts the experimental method and simulation to examine the engine’s combustion process and cycle variations ...
Influence of Cyclic Drying–Wetting and Carbonation on Oxygen Diffusivity of Cementitious Materials: Interpretation from the Perspective of Microstructure
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The oxygen diffusion coefficient of coastal concrete structures under cyclic drying–wetting and carbonation is one of the most crucial factors in its durability performance. In this work, the oxygen diffusion coefficients ...
Analysis of Creep in a Si-SiC C-Ring by Finite Element Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The long-term creep deformation of a siliconized silicon carbide ceramic C-ring subjected to a compression load at 1300°C in air is studied by the finite element method. Based on asymmetric ...
Multidomain Topology Optimization for Structural and Material Designs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A multidomain topology optimization technique (MDTO) is developed, which extends the standard topology optimization method to the realm of more realistic engineering design problems. The new ...
Topological Optimization Technique for Free Vibration Problems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A topological optimization technique using the conception of OMD (Optimal Material Distribution) is presented for free vibration problems of a structure. A new objective function corresponding to ...
A Distributed Mechanical System Simulation Platform Based on a “Gluing Algorithm”
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Three key concepts are presented in this paper, which comprise the foundation of a distributed simulation platform for design and virtual prototyping of general mechanical systems that have their ...
Lightning Distribution and Eyewall Outbreaks in Tropical Cyclones during Landfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: loud-to-ground lightning data and storm intensity data (winds and central pressure) for 33 northwest Pacific tropical cyclones were used to analyze lightning distributions during the period of landfall in China. Lightning ...
Evaluation of Nonuniform Corrosion of Steel in Concrete Based on Two-Yoke Magnetic Sensor
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study aims to develop a two-yoke magnetic sensor system, measuring the mass loss of steel in concrete subjected to nonuniform corrosion. The impressed current method was employed to induce the nonuniform corrosion ...
Corrosion Behavior of Coupled Steel Bars under Different Stress Levels in Simulated Concrete Pore Solutions
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To study the corrosion behavior of coupled steel bars under applied stresses, experiments on the influence of applied tensile and compressive stresses on the corrosion of coupled steel bars in simulated concrete pore ...
