Dynamic Structural Properties of Cable‐Stayed Tampico Bridge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Because of their complex behavior under wind, earthquake, and moving loads, the dynamic response of cable‐stayed bridges requires special studies. Use of experimental procedures to confirm design assumptions and predict ...
An Axial-Flow Porous Plug Apparatus
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The design of an apparatus for determination of Joule-Thomson coefficients is presented. An axial flow porous plug is utilized and the downstream flow is so arranged that one concentric flow ...
Discussion of “<i>Improvements in Grouting of Large Ground Anchors</i>” by A. C. Houlsby (April, 1988, Vol. 114, No. 4)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
The Effect of Tool Flexibility on Back-Cutting in End Milled Surfaces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: End milled surface texture is inhomogeneous and often exhibits complex lay patterns. An important contributing factor to these surface characteristics is the back-cutting effect. This effect causes ...
Integration of Process Simulation in Machining Parameter Optimization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In recent years, simulation tools have proven valuable for the prediction of machining state variables over a wide range of operating parameters. Such simulation packages, however, are seldom ...
Discussion of “Operational Requirements for Long-Span Bridges under Strong Wind Events” by Moe M. S. Cheung and Ben Y. B. Chan
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Compatibility of Segmenting Fluids in Continuous-Flow Microfluidic PCR
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Continuous flow offers notable advantages over batch processing for analytical applications like gene expression profiling of biological material, which demands very high processing. The technology ...
Nonlinear Wind Tunnel Tests of Cable-Supported Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Following the collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge due to an aeroelastic instability, it has been common practice to test cable-supported bridges in a wind tunnel to check the soundness of bridge designs with respect to ...
