Discussion of “Type II Sedimentation: Removal Efficiency from Column‐Settling Tests” by Ravindra M. Srivastava (May/June, 1992, Vol. 118, No. 3)
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Bacterial Die‐Off in Waste Stabilization Ponds
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A rate model has been given for the bacterial die‐off in waste stabilization ponds. Die‐off rate has been expressed as the sum of die‐off rate in the dark and the die‐off due to light. The proposed rate model has been ...
Discussion: “Isotropic Clamped-Free Thin Annular Circular Plate Subjected to a Concentrated Load” (Adewale, A. O., 2006, ASME J. Appl. Mech., 73, pp. 658–663)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this interesting paper (1), a concentrated load was applied to the clamped-free annular plate. The problem domain was divided into two parts by the cylindrical section where a concentrated ...
Measurement of the Laser Exposure Levels for Burn Threshold in Biological Tissue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experiments for the evaluation of the laser energy density required to induce burn threshold in biological tissue are presented. The results are compared with a theoretical model. The values ...
The Problem of Several Indentors Moving on a Viscoelastic Half-Plane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The problem of several indentors moving on a viscoelastic half-plane is considered in the noninertial approximation. The solution of this mixed boundary value problem is formulated in terms of ...
Effect of Pond Depth on Bacterial Die‐Off
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The depth dependence of bacterial die‐off was demonstrated experimentally both in batch models and in three pilot‐scale waste stabilization ponds with water depths of 0.5 m, 1.0 m, and 1.5 m. The dimensions of the ponds ...
Fueling Machine Model for Simulation of Spent Fuel Behavior in Postulated Fuel Handling Accidents
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: On-power fueling is an important feature of the CANDU® reactor. Fueling is a routine operation with a large number of channel fueling visits made each year with the fueling machines acting as the key system. Hence, safety ...
Experimental Study on the Influence of Water Absorption of Recycled Coarse Aggregates on Properties of the Resulting Concretes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper, three recycled coarse aggregates (RCAs) with different 24-h water absorptions (5.67, 3.12, and 1.98 wt%) were used to produce recycled coarse aggregate concretes (RCACs). Different water absorption rates ...
Stress-Concentration Factors in Circular Hollow Section and Square Hollow Section T-Connections: Experiments, Finite-Element Analysis, and Formulas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Nodal T-connections made up of circular hollow section (CHS) braces and square hollow section (SHS) chords (CHS-SHS T-connections) have the advantage that they do not require complex brace end preparation when compared ...
Urban Groundwater Rise Control: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Seepage of wastewater from cesspools, and of leachate from green areas and parks, results in an annual groundwater rise of 0.5 m in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. The rise causes several environmental and structural problems. A ...
