RISParameter Study of a New Strut-and-Tie Model for a Thick Cap with Six Piles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A comprehensive strut-and-tie model is a function of the nodes, struts, ties, model types, and pile reaction force. Because each element has more than one solution, the function is a problem of permutations and combinations. ...
A Unified Approach to H∠Control of Singular Markovian Jump Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper considers the H∠control problem for a class of singular Markovian jump systems (SMJSs), where the jumping signal is not always available. The main contribution of this paper introduces a new approach to a ...
Focused Ion-Beam Based Nanohole Modeling, Simulation, Fabrication, and Application
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There are three major steps toward the fabrication of a single-digit nanohole: (1) preparing the free-standing thin film by epitaxial deposition and electrochemical etching, (2) making submicron ...
Aspect Ratio to Maximize Sediment Transport in Rigid Bank Channels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The continuity equation, Manning’s equation, Einstein’s wall correction procedure and sediment transport equations are combined to indicate channel aspect ratios which maximize sediment transport for a given water discharge ...
EM-FKF Approach to an Integrated Navigation System
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, to reduce the computational load of the federated Kalman filter, an expectation-maximization federated Kalman filtering (EM-FKF) algorithm for integrated navigation systems is proposed. First, the states ...

Rheological Response of Natural Soft Coastal Mud under Oscillatory Shear Loadings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dynamic rheological properties of natural cohesive sediments are essential to understanding cohesive sediment transport under waves. In this study, dynamic rheological measurements of natural mud collected from Yueqing ...
Energy Harvesting from Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In recent years wireless sensors are becoming more widely used to monitor water distribution systems in the water supply industry. When sensors are installed in areas where electric power supply is lacking and/or battery ...
Kalman Filtering of Hydraulic Measurements for Burst Detection in Water Distribution Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Automatic burst and leak detection in water distribution systems plays an important role in water saving and management. This research develops a novel burst detection method of using adaptive Kalman filtering on hydraulic ...
Errors in the Bed Shear Stress as Estimated from Vertical Velocity Profile
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, errors in determining bed shear stress caused by errors in theoretical bed surface data or roughness size selection using one-point velocity, two-point velocity, or a group of velocity measurements within ...
