Ethics of the Global Frontier
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
The Effect of Small Intestine Heterogeneity on Irreversible Electroporation Treatment Planning
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nonthermal irreversible electroporation (NTIRE) is an ablation modality that utilizes microsecond electric fields to produce nanoscale defects in the cell membrane. This results in selective cell death while preserving all ...
The Classification of Climates from Pythagoras to Koeppen
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper attempts are made to trace the ways in which climates were shown on maps of the world beginning with the Greek philosopher Pythagoras and ending with Koeppen. Much of the information was obtained by examining ...
A Comparison of Canadian and United States Standard Methods of Measuring Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Methods of measuring precipitation vary from country to country. Consequently, the comparability of precipitation data along international borders is questionable. The present paper compares 5 years of precipitation data ...
Optimized J Evaluation Scheme for the Fracture Mechanics Assessment of Complex Piping Systems Subjected to Various Loading Sets
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper describes an optimization scheme for the J parameter calculation of cracks postulated in complex geometrical configurations such as elbow entries/exits and/or thickness transitions. The principle of this scheme ...
Design of an Endoscopic Biopsy Needle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper summarizes the design and testing of a biopsy needle to be used through a flexible endoscope. There is a need for a biopsy needle that can be used through the endoscopic channel ...
QUAL2E Simulations of Pulse Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: QUAL2E is a riverine water‐quality program that has been used to study a wide range of environmental problems. Through numerous updates and improvements, it now contains some of the most sophisticated water‐quality kinetics ...
Dynamic Topology Optimization of Compliant Mechanisms and Piezoceramic Actuators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A topology optimization method is developed to design a piezoelectric ceramic actuator together with a compliant mechanism coupling structure for dynamic applications. The objective is to maximize ...
Design of Smart Structures and Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: journal. I am grateful to guest editors Dr. Mary Frecker and Dr. Nancy Johnson for pursuing and managing the creation of the special issue, and I am looking forward to seeing smart product design a growing area...
Remediation and Air Void Stability of Hauled Self-Consolidating Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the production of self-consolidating concrete (SCC), long hauling times are often necessary for transportation to the job site. During such hauling time, highly fluid SCC can lose a significant amount of slump flow, ...
