Review of <i>Sorting Out Sand and Gravel: Sediment Transport and Deposition in Sand-Gravel Bed Rivers</i> by Maarten Kleinhans
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Estimated Lifetimes of Road Pavements in Sweden Using Time-to-Event Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Maintenance planning of road pavement requires reliable estimates of roads’ lifetimes. In determining the lifetime of a road, this study combines maintenance activities and road condition measurements. The scope of the ...
2023 Summer Biomechanics, Bioengineering, and Biotransport Conference Student Paper Competition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Student Paper Competition (SPC) was held at the 2023 Summer Biomechanics, Bioengineering, and Biotransport Conference (SB3C). As in past years, there are three competition levels: Ph.D., M.S., and B.S. levels, with ...
Trace Metal Composition in Water and Sediment from Catch Basins
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When eductor trucks are used to maintain catch basins, the mixture of water and sediment that is produced has to be disposed of in some way. This paper considers the quality of this mixture after it has been discharged ...
Bolting Elements of Helicopter Fuselage and Tail Boom Joints Using Acoustic Emission Amplitude and Absolute Energy Criterion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This research was devoted to the development of a structural health monitoring (SHM) system for helicopter structures using the acoustic emission (AE) method. Experiments were carried out on a test bench to test helicopter ...
Engineering Design and Spatial Skills: A Systematic Literature Review
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. This article reports the results of a systematic review of the literature on spatial skills in the context of engineering design. The review sought to identify what spatial skills assessment tools are being used ...
A Virtual Work Model for the Design and Parameter Identification of Cylindrical Pressure-Driven Soft Actuators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we derive a model based on the principle of virtual work to describe the deformations of cylindrical pressure-driven soft actuators with four types of fiber reinforcement and with externally applied forces. ...
Evolution of the Shape of the Raindrop Size Distribution in Simulated Shallow Cumulus
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper, the evolution of the raindrop size distribution (RSD) is investigated for two isolated shallow cumulus clouds that are modeled with large-eddy simulations. For a two-moment bulk rain microphysics scheme that ...
Integrated Instrumentation and Sensor Systems Functional Model and Taxonomy
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article presents a systems engineering functional architecture tailored to guide the development of integrated instrumentation/sensor systems (IISSs; incorporating communications media and interconnections and signal ...
Interactions among Cloud, Water Vapor, Radiation, and Large-Scale Circulation in the Tropical Climate. Part I: Sensitivity to Uniform Sea Surface Temperature Changes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The responses of tropical clouds and water vapor to SST variations are investigated with simple numerical experiments. The fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University?National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU?NCAR) ...
