Large Differences in Diffuse Solar Radiation among Current-Generation Reanalysis and Satellite-Derived Products
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Lift and Tip Vortices Generated by Tapered Backward-Swept and Forward-Swept Wings under Stationary Ground Proximity
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: An experimental investigation of the aerodynamics and near-field tip-vortex flow field behind tapered backward- and forward-swept wings with a stationary ground effect was conducted at Reynolds number (Re)=1.81×105. The ...
Response Surface Method Optimization of a High-Speed Direct-Injection Diesel Engine Equipped With a Common Rail Injection System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To overcome the tradeoff between NOx and particulate emissions for future diesel vehicles and engines it is necessary to seek methods to lower pollutant emissions. The desired simultaneous ...
Experimental Study on Effect of Wavelength and Amplitude of Wavy Ground on a NACA 0012 Airfoil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effect of wavelength and amplitude of a sinusoidal wavy ground on the aerodynamics and flowfield of a NACA 0012 airfoil at low Reynolds numbers was investigated experimentally. The results show that, regardless of wave ...
Dual-Weight Fall Cone Method for Simultaneous Liquid and Plastic Limit Determination
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Simultaneously assessing liquid limit and plastic limit using a single laboratory test procedure and comparing the results to the standard test methods has not been noted in the published literature. This paper describes ...
Closure to “Discussion of ‘Flow Analyses in a Single-stage Propulsion Pump’” (1996, ASME J. Turbomach., 118, p. 248)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Flow Analyses in a Single-Stage Propulsion Pump
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Steady-state analyses of the incompressible flow past a single-stage stator/rotor propulsion pump are presented and compared to experimental data. The purpose of the current study is to validate ...
Partial Interaction Shear Flow Forces in Continuous Composite Steel–Concrete Beams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most research since the introduction of mechanical forms of shear connection to provide interaction in steel–concrete beams in the 1940s has focused on simply supported beams. With the use of advanced computer techniques ...
Urban Headwater Flooding Damage Potential
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Headwater flooding, flooding from a small drainage area affecting only a few structures, has generally been ignored in estimating national flood losses. A technique is developed for estimating these losses with an estimate ...
Inelastic Response of Variable Stiffness Members under Cyclic Loading
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The research here deals with the dynamic analysis of variable stiffness members that are subjected to dynamic cyclic loadings. The dynamic analysis takes into consideration the restoring force behavior of such members by ...
