RISPullout Capacity Analysis of Horizontal Plate Anchors with Tensile Strength Cutoff
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The conventional Mohr–Coulomb (M-C) failure criterion is commonly used in existing studies to determine the ultimate pullout capacity of plate anchors buried in cohesive-frictional soils. However, this criterion overestimates ...
Performance of Snow Fence at Banihal Top in Himalayan Region
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A continuous snow fence of 50% porosity, 130 m in length, and 4.0 m height was installed to overcome the snowdrift problems at Banihal Top (Jammu and Kashmir, India) in the Himalayan region. The avalanche sites, which ...
Experimental and Analytical Behavior of Carbon Fiber-Based Rods as Flexural Reinforcement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the results of an experimental and analytical comparison of a study on the flexural behavior of concrete beams reinforced with sandblasted carbon fiber-based composite rods. Twelve beams, including three ...
Discussion of “Open‐Channel Flow Algorithm in Newton‐Raphson Form” by John N. Paine (March/April, 1992, Vol. 118, No. 2)

Dynamic Fracture Simulation of Concrete Using a Virtual Internal Bond Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A multiscale virtual internal bond (VIB) model for isotropic materials has been recently proposed to describe material deformation and fracture under quasi-static and dynamic loading situations. Fracture simulation using ...
Lower-Bound Finite-Element Limit Analysis of Axisymmetric Active Earth Pressure Incorporating Shear Strength Nonlinearity of Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract For evaluating active earth pressures under plane strain conditions, extensive studies
are available. However, research on axisymmetric active earth pressures remains limited
and mostly employs the linear Mohr–Coulomb ...
The Minimum Drag Profile in Laminar Flow: A Numerical Way
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It would be of interest to engineers and scientists to know the shape of the body of a given volume that will have minimum drag when moving through a viscous fluid at constant speed. It ...
A Three-Dimensional Solder Shape Model Incorporating Top Pad Inclination and Misalignment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this technical brief, we describe a simple, yet versatile solder shape prediction model that can handle inclination (as is likely to occur when warped substrates are used) and misalignment ...
Effect of Vortex Generators on Film Cooling Effectiveness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Film cooling is often adopted, where coolant jets are ejected to form a protective layer on the surface against the hot combustor gases. The bending of jets in crossflow results in counter rotating vortex pair (CRVP), which ...
Parallelization Strategies for Element-by-Element Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient Solver Using High-Performance Fortran for Unstructured Finite-Element Applications on Linux Clusters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Parallel implementation of an unstructured finite-element solver using the preconditioned conjugate gradient (PCG) method is described here. High-performance Fortran has been used with the implementation based on a 32-node ...
