Abstract: Dynamic tensile tests were conducted on uranium-10 weight percent molybdenum alloy in as-cast and wrought conditions. Carbon content was varied from 71 to 800 ppm. Heat-treatment was also varied. ...

Abstract: The application of a new Fredholm integral equation solver to problems in thermal radiation is explored. The new method provides a simplified version of Fredholm’s own 1903 solution which, while ...

Abstract: A new indirect adaptive algorithm is derived for pole placement control of linear continuous-time systems with unknown parameters. The control structure proposed relies on a periodic controller, ...

Abstract: The biases of four commonly used air temperature sensors are examined and detailed. Each temperature transducer consists of three components: temperature sensing elements, signal conditioning circuitry, and corresponding ...

Abstract: Historic roof structures of large monumental buildings are often complex with static behavior that is difficult to grasp. Yet, understanding their static behavior is necessary to adequately preserve and maintain them. The ...

Abstract: In historic buildings, a variety of different types of timber roof structures reflecting different building traditions and different ideals for the inner space are found. In Sweden, damage to historic roof structures due ...

Abstract: Analyzing the dynamic hydrologic conditions of the Sandhills is critical for water and range management and sustainability of the sandhills ecosystem as well as for dune stability. There are complex models available to ...

Abstract: This paper presents an evaluation of derived dewpoint temperature and derived relative humidity, in which the dewpoint temperature is calculated using measured ambient air temperature and measured relative humidity variables ...
