RISCrack in Corrosion Defect Assessment in Transmission Pipelines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cracks may occur coincident with corrosion representing a new hybrid defect in gas and oil pipelines known as crack in corrosion (CIC) that is not directly addressed in the current codes or assessment methods. Hence, there ...
Assessment of Thorax Finite Element Model Response for Behind Armor Blunt Trauma Impact Loading Using an Epidemiological Database
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nonperforating ballistic impacts on thoracic armor can cause blunt injuries, known as behind-armor blunt trauma (BABT). To evaluate the potential for this injury, the back face deformation (BFD) imprinted into a clay backing ...
Head Kinematic Measurements and Finite Element Modeling of Canadian Armed Forces Operators Firing Three Long-Range Rifle Configurations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) symptoms have been associated with repeated exposure to the recoil of long-range rifles. However, there is limited physical data on head responses to rifle recoil and no consistent ...
Load-Sharing and Kinematics of the Human Cervical Spine Under Multi-Axial Transverse Shear Loading: Combined Experimental and Computational Investigation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The cervical spine experiences shear forces during everyday activities and injurious events yet there is a paucity of biomechanical data characterizing the cervical spine under shear loading. This study aimed to (1) ...
