Learning an Eddy Viscosity Model Using Shrinkage and Bayesian Calibration: A Jet-in-Crossflow Case Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We demonstrate a statistical procedure for learning a high-order eddy viscosity model (EVM) from experimental data and using it to improve the predictive skill of a Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) simulator. The ...
Simple Effective Conservative Treatment of Uncertainty From Sparse Samples of Random Variables and Functions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper examines the variability of predicted responses when multiple stress–strain curves (reflecting variability from replicate material tests) are propagated through a finite element model of a ductile steel can being ...
Propagation of Parametric Uncertainties in a Nonlinear Aeroelastic System Using an Improved Adaptive Sparse Grid Quadrature Routine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel uncertainty quantification routine in the genre of adaptive sparse grid stochastic collocation (SC) has been proposed in this study to investigate the propagation of parametric uncertainties in a stall flutter ...
Generic Approach for Risk Assessment of Offshore Piping Subjected to Vibration Induced Fatigue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Vibration induced fatigue (VIF) failure of topside piping is one of the most common causes of the hydrocarbon release on offshore oil and gas platforms operating in the North Sea region. An effective inspection plan for ...
Hybrid Probabilistic–Possibilistic Treatment of Uncertainty in Building Energy Models: A Case Study of Sizing Peak Cooling Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Optimal sizing of peak loads has proven to be an important factor affecting the overall energy consumption of heating ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems. Uncertainty quantification of peak loads enables optimal ...
Low-Speed Go-Kart Crash Tests and a Comparison to Activities of Daily Living
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Go-karts are a common amusement park feature enjoyed by people of all ages. While intended for racing, contact between go-karts does occur. To investigate and quantify the accelerations and forces which result from contact, ...
Time-Dependent System Reliability Analysis for Bivariate Responses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Time-dependent system reliability is computed as the probability that the responses of a system do not exceed prescribed failure thresholds over a time duration of interest. In this work, an efficient time-dependent ...
Evaluating the Potential for Gasoline Geysering From Small Engine Fuel Tanks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper explores an infrequently encountered hazard associated with liquid fuel tanks on gasoline-powered equipment using unvented fuel tanks. Depending on the location of fuel reserve tanks, waste heat from the engine ...
Bayesian Network Learning for Data-Driven Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bayesian networks (BNs) are being studied in recent years for system diagnosis, reliability analysis, and design of complex engineered systems. In several practical applications, BNs need to be learned from available data ...
