Understanding Hidden Risks from Disasters: Cases of Hurricane Katrina and Fukushima Nuclear Meltdown
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Location Modeling of Population and Land-Use Change in Rural Area by New Expressway
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The purpose of this study is to analyze the impact on land-use and population change in a rural area close to the construction of a new expressway through location modeling with spatial interaction analysis. Chungbu ...
Development of an Optimization Technique for a Potential Surface of Spatial Urban Growth Using Deterministic Modeling Methodology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study developed the weighted scenario method (WSM) using the analytic hierarchical process (AHP) method that can optimize the weighting value for multiple criteria to make a grid-based potential surface. The potential ...
Micromachined Methanol Reformer for Portable PEM Fuel Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fabrication procedures for a micromethanol reformer including catalyst preparation, coating, and patterning on a wafer are described. Cu-based catalyst was prepared by coprecipitation method. The ...
Moisture Ingress, Behavior, and Prediction Inside Semiconductor Packaging: A Review
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reliability issues associated with moisture have become increasingly important as advanced electronic devices are nowhere more evident than in portable electronic products. The transition to the Pb-free solders, which ...
Permeability Determination from On-the-Fly Piezocone Sounding
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Solutions are developed for the steady, partially drained, fluid pressure field that develops around a moving penetrometer. These include rigorous solution for a point volumetric dislocation moving in a saturated elastic ...
Revisiting Gust Averaging Time and Gust Effect Factor in ASCE 7
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A peak gust–based wind map was first introduced in ASCE 7-95 to replace the fastest mile wind speed used in earlier versions of the ASCE 7 standard based on wind records using the National Weather Service (NWS) F420C cup ...
Process Modeling for Urban Growth Simulation with Cohort Component Method, Cellular Automata Model and GIS/RS: Case Study on Surrounding Area of Seoul, Korea
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study developed a process model that includes three steps for urban growth simulation. A preprocessing step is required to classify three satellite images acquired in 1990, 2000, and 2009 into six land-use types using ...

Indentation of a Free-Falling Sharp Penetrometer into a Poroelastic Seabed
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A solution is developed for the buildup, steady, and postarrest dissipative pore fluid pressure fields that develop around a conical penetrometer that self-embeds from free-fall into the seabed. Arrest from free-fall ...
