A Calculating Method Of Albedo and Experimental Study of its Influence on Building Heat Environment in Summer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: One of the characters of urbanization is that cities develop spatially. The harmful effects of urban heat island put a burden on environmental preservation, energy saving, and thermal comfort. ...
A Continuous Desingularized Source Distribution Method Describing Wave–Body Interactions of a Large Amplitude Oscillatory Body
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A Rankine source method with a continuous desingularized free surface source panel distribution is developed to solve numerically a wave–body interaction problem with nonlinear boundary conditions. A body undergoes forced ...
Unveiling Microplastic Release from Discarded Textiles: A Potential Threat to Aquatic Environments
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractThe life cycle of clothing is becoming increasingly shorter due to the rapid growth
of fast fashion. Developed countries export tons of clothes to developing nations,
particularly in Africa. However, rather than ...
Instability of a Confined Viscoelastic Liquid Sheet in a Viscous Gas Medium
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A linear analysis method was used to investigate the instability behavior of a viscoelastic liquid sheet moving through a viscous gas bounded by two horizontal parallel flat plates. The liquid sheet velocity profile was ...
Assessment of a Regional Flood Disaster Indicator via an Entropy Weighting Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the limited resources for disaster prevention and reduction, it is crucial that a flooding disaster hazard level is established. Therefore, this study establishes the flooding disaster indicator (FDI), which serves ...
Joint Stiffness-Based Assisted-as-Needed Control Strategy for Wrist Rehabilitation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. This article introduces a novel stiffness-based assist-as-needed (AAN) control strategy aimed at optimizing the balance between robotic assistance and patient engagement in wrist rehabilitation. Central to the ...
Experimental Study on Train-Induced Longitudinal Movements and Control Measures for a Suspension Bridge Using a Scaled Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract This study investigates the longitudinal reciprocating movement of the stiffening
girder caused by trains passing over suspension bridges, which can adversely impact
expansion joints, bearings, dampers, and overall ...
Mechanism Analysis of Subgrade Frost Heaving in Seasonally Frozen Regions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To elucidate the frost heaving mechanism of subgrade, as well as reduce cracking, subsidence, and mudding due to water freezing and thawing in seasonally frozen regions, temperature sensors were embedded in the subgrade ...
Data Quality Assessment and the Long-Term Trend of Ground Solar Radiation in China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Solar radiation is one of the most important factors affecting climate and the environment. Routine measurements of irradiance are valuable for climate change research because of long time series and areal coverage. In ...
Safety Constraints of Instrumental and Control Algorithm Configuration Based on SCADE Platform
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Algorithm library plays an important role in digital instrument control system. In the design process, software testing and safety verification are focused on safety and reliability of the algorithm library. The configured ...
