Abstract: Pulverizers play a pivotal role in coal-based thermal power generation. Improper coal fineness or drying reflects a qualitywise deterioration. This results in flame instability, unburnt combustible ...

Abstract: Shape-memory Alloys are attractive for many potential applications. In an attempt to provide ideas and guidelines for the development of new shape-memory alloys, this paper reports on a series ...

Abstract: The response of transverse joints of airfield rigid pavements subjected to wheel load is studied. It covers the linear and nonlinear behaviors of the joint by suitably modeling the concrete as elastoviscoplastic and the ...

Abstract: The stability of long horseshoe tunnels in cohesive-frictional soils is examined by using lower bound finite element limit analysis. Its stability is assessed by determining the magnitude of uniform internal normal pressure ...

Abstract: Professor Roop L. Mahajan, ASME Fellow and Lewis Hester Chair Professor of Engineering at Virginia Tech celebrated his 80th birthday on Mar. 5, 2024. On this wonderful occasion and to honor his remarkable career, his former ...

Abstract: This article reveals how apparently similar looking nanoparticles with same size, shape, and mass may exhibit widely varying Brownian diffusivity due to inherent features of nanoscale dynamics. Such variabilities may, in ...

Abstract: In this paper, a systematic numerical study of pool boiling heat transfer on a mixed wettability heated surface is done using the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) with a multiple relaxation time (MRT)-based collision operator. ...
