RISPerformance Measurements of Pavement Matting Systems by Full-Scale Testing over Differing Soil Strengths
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The focus of this work was to evaluate the use of commercially available matting systems to sustain C-130 and C-17 transport aircraft loads over soil bases having different California bearing ratio (CBR) ranges. Test ...
Development of an Analytical Design Tool for Monolithic Emission Control Catalysts and Application to Nano Textured Substrate System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical transport/reaction model was developed to simulate the catalytic performance of ZnO nanowires as a catalyst support. ZnO nanowires were chosen because they have easily characterized, controllable features and ...
An Exceptional Summer during the South Pole Race of 1911-1912
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: e race for the South Pole during the summer of 1911-1912 was marked by exceptionally high temperature and pressure anomalies experienced by both Amundsen and Scott.
Reexamining the Vertical Development of Tornadic Vortex Signatures in Supercells
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations from a hybrid phased-array Doppler radar, the Mobile Weather Radar, 2005 X-band, Phased Array (MWR-05XP), were used to investigate the vertical development of tornadic vortex signatures (TVSs) during supercell ...
Mobile, Phased-Array, Doppler Radar Observations of Tornadoes at X Band
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: mobile, phased-array Doppler radar, the Mobile Weather Radar, 2005 X-band, Phased Array (MWR-05XP), has been used since 2007 to obtain data in supercells and tornadoes. Rapidly updating, volumetric data of tornadic vortex ...
Plasma-Synthesized Nitrogen-Doped Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles With Tunable Visible Light Absorption and Photocatalytic Activity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Titanium dioxide in its pure wide bandgap “white” form is a non-toxic, efficient, and practical photocatalyst, but predominately absorbs light in the ultraviolet range of the spectrum. The absorption range, however, can ...
Full-Scale Instrumented Testing and Three-Dimensional Modeling of Airfield Matting Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Matting systems are used for temporary applications on soft soils to reduce ground pressure exerted by aircraft, heavy equipment, vehicles, and construction material. They have been used for military airfields, construction ...
