RISEnhanced Flow Boiling Using Radial Open Microchannels With Manifold and Offset Strip Fins
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The increasing demand for designing effective cooling solutions in high power density electronic components has resulted in exploring advanced thermal management strategies. Over the past decade, phase-change cooling has ...
An Assessment of the Climatology of Florida Hurricane-Induced Tornadoes (HITs): Technology versus Meteorology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he placement of operational Doppler radar at National Weather Service offices in Florida in 1994 and 1995 has produced a distinct climatological discontinuity in archived records of hurricane-induced tornado (HIT) events. ...
Lessons from Using BIM to Increase Design-Construction Integration
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Building information modeling (BIM) has started to become a common practice in the architectural, engineering, construction, and facilities management (AEC-FM) industry. The benefits of BIM have been recognized in the ...
Design-Based Doctoral Education in Bioengineering
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In order to meet the needs of industry, graduate schools should consider adding design-based programs to their curriculum. A majority of Ph.D. students in bio-engineering and biomedical engineering (BME) seek employment ...
Linking Building Attributes and Tornado Vulnerability Using a Logistic Regression Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The residential building stock in the United States suffers a disproportionately large amount of tornado damage, which is linked to vulnerability of the building and its components. Whereas the building stock exhibits a ...
Improving Model Parameters in Vibrating Systems Using Neumann Series
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method is presented to improve the estimates of material properties, dimensions, and other model parameters for linear vibrating systems. The method improves the estimates of a single model parameter of interest by finding ...
Unique Loss Factor Images for Complex Dynamic Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Over the past century, a number of scalar metrics have been proposed to measure the damping of a complex system. The present work explores these metrics in the context of finite element models. Perhaps the most common is ...
Contractile Properties of Vaginal Tissue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The vagina is an important organ of the female reproductive system that has been largely understudied in the field of biomechanics. In recent years, some research has been conducted to evaluate the mechanical properties ...
Rapid Field Verification of Organoclay-Sand Blends for Environmental Construction Using Portable X-Ray Fluorescence
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract Organoclay (OC) is a widely used sorbent for environmental remediation of nonaqueous
phase liquids and thus requires rapid construction quality assurance (CQA) verification
of OC-sand blends used for sediment ...
An Inverse Method to Predict NEMS Beam Properties From Natural Frequencies
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a method to simultaneously predict the elastic modulus, axial load, and boundary conditions of a nanoelectromechanical system (NEMS) beam from a minimum of two measured natural frequencies. The proposed ...
