Abstract: The management and control of megaprojects are incredibly complex. Difficulties occur due to unexpected changes and errors. To effectively manage disruptive changes, reworks, and errors, project managers are required to ...

Abstract: In the past decade, gigahertz nano-oscillators have attracted much attention. Of particular interest are nested carbon nanotubes with telescopic movements. Recent work on this type of oscillator has led to new results and ...

Abstract: In the current work, the vibration characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) under different boundary conditions are investigated. A nonlocal elastic shell model is utilized, which ...

Abstract: The elastic analysis of two different kinds of radially heterogeneous pressure vessels is conducted in this paper. As a first kind of heterogeneous pressure vessels, a multilayered pipe with ...

Abstract: Relative to the present-day need for offshore operations involving the use of moored vessels, mooring system design has become quite complex. Since a proper choice of mooring line components ...

Abstract: The performances of various transverseflow doublelayer microchannel heat sink configurations were evaluated compared to those of parallelflow heat sink configurations via conjugate heat transfer analysis. For the analysis, ...

Abstract: Nested carbon nanotubes exhibit telescopic oscillatory motion with frequencies in the gigahertz range. In this paper, our previously proposed semi-analytical expression for the interaction force ...
