RISModeling a Mixed-Mode Cooling System with Correlation to Operable Building Facade Openings: Mathematical Logic Integration of Computational Fluid Dynamics and Energy Models
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study proposes a methodology to integrate natural ventilation into mixed-mode HVAC systems, addressing the gap in design practices that fully incorporate passive cooling techniques. The methodology uses scenario-based ...
Risk-Based Maintenance Optimization of Deteriorating Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Assessment of Risk Using Bridge Element Condition Ratings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, a methodology for quantifying lifetime risk of bridge superstructures is presented. The risk is quantified in terms of the expected direct and indirect losses. A scenario-based approach, which uses the
Pre-Earthquake Multi-Objective Probabilistic Retrofit Optimization of Bridge Networks Based on Sustainability
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Planning retrofit actions on bridge networks under tight budget constraints is a challenging process. Because of the uncertainties associated with this process, a probabilistic approach is necessary. In this paper, a ...
Effect of Glass and Basalt Fibers on the Bond–Slip Behavior of Steel Rebar in Eco-Friendly Fly Ash–Based Geopolymer Concrete: A Relative Comparison Using the Hinged Beam Approach
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Geopolymers, a type of concrete extensively researched in recent years, demonstrate mechanical properties comparable to conventional concrete. It is widely acknowledged that the main aim of adding fibers to conventional ...
Growth and Evapotranspiration of Okra (<i>Abelmoschus Esculentus L.</i>) as Influenced by Salinity of Irrigation Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effects of irrigation water salinity on growth, yield, and water consumption of okra was investigated with a pot experiment. For this purpose, five irrigation water salinity levels with electrical conductivities of ...

Monitoring Pump Parameters in Small Modular Reactors Using Electric Motor Signatures1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) are designed for long-term operation with minimum outages and for possible deployment in remote locations. To achieve this operational goal, the SMRs may require remote and continuous ...
Predicting Microstructure Evolution During Directed Energy Deposition Additive Manufacturing of Ti-6Al-4V
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Laser engineering net shaping (LENS) is one of the representative processes of directed energy deposition (DED) in which a moving heat source having high-intensity melts and fuses metal powders together to print parts. The ...
Quantifying the Role of Vulnerability in Hurricane Damage via a Machine Learning Case Study
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Predisaster damage predictions and postdisaster damage assessments often inadequately capture the intensity and spatial–temporal complexity of natural hazard-caused damage. Accurate identification of areas with the greatest ...
