RISThe Vertical Stratification of Air Temperature in the Center of Athens
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The intraurban temperature variation in the center of Athens, Greece, was investigated in relation to urban geometry. This paper describes two main tasks: 1) Air temperature was recorded in the center of Athens and at the ...
Biomechanically Excited SMD Model of a Walking Pedestrian
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Through their biomechanical properties, pedestrians interact with the structures they occupy. Although this interaction has been recognized by researchers, pedestrians’ biomechanical properties have not been fully addressed. ...

Measurement of Local Deformations in Steel Monostrands Using Digital Image Correlation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The local deformation mechanisms in steel monostrands have a significant influence on their fatigue life and failure mode. However, the observation and quantification of deformations in monostrands experiencing axial and ...
Statistical Modeling of Time Series for Ice Accretion Detection on Bridge Cables
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the northern regions, ice accretion on bridge cables poses serious risks to the structure as well as to vehicular traffic when ice falls from the cables onto the road. The detection and quantification of ice formation ...
Model-Based Groupware Solution for Distributed Real-Time Collaborative 4D Planning through Teamwork
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Construction planning plays a fundamental role in construction project management that requires teamwork among planners from a diverse range of disciplines and in geographically dispersed working situations. Model-based ...
Leakage and Rotordynamic Coefficients of Brush Seals With Zero Cold Clearance Used in an Arrangement With Labyrinth Fins
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A brushlabyrinth sealing configuration consisting of two labyrinth fins upstream and one brush seal downstream is studied experimentally and theoretically. Two slightly different brush seal designs with zero cold radial ...
Segmentation Effects on Brush Seal Leakage and Rotordynamic Coefficients
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the effect of brush seal segmentation on the seal performance characteristics. A brush–labyrinth sealing configuration arranged of one brush seal downstream and two labyrinth fins upstream is studied ...
Detailed Study on Stiffness and Load Characteristics of Film-Riding Groove Types Using Design of Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the application of film-riding sealing technology, there are various groove features that can be used to induce hydrodynamic lift. However, there is little guidance in selecting the relative parameter settings in order ...
Investigation of Effective Groove Types for a Film Riding Seal
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Over the past two decades, significant efforts have been made to introduce film riding sealing technology on large industrial or aerospace gas turbines. The main challenge comes from the high surface speeds and high ...
