Analytical Determination of Pollutant Wash-Off Parameters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The wash-off algorithm in the Storm Water Management Model has been widely used to simulate the wash off of sediment and pollutants from impervious areas. This algorithm indicates an exponential relationship between pollutant ...
Closure to “Stable Width and Depth of Gravel‐Bed Rivers with Cohesive Banks” by Robert G. Millar
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
A Method for Pump Manifold Performance Calculations in Hydraulic Air Compressors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Analytical methods are described that were developed to undertake the pump manifold calculations for hydraulic air compressors (HACs) where multiple pumps are installed in parallel configurations. The procedures are fast ...
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 ...
Mechanical Efficiency of Hydraulic Air Compressors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: After air and water mixing, the process of gas compression in the downcomer shaft or pipe of a hydraulic air compressor is considered nearly isothermal due to (i) the mass flow rate of water being typically of three orders ...
Optimal Design and Control of Wind Diesel Hybrid Energy Systems for Remote Arctic Mines
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mining operations are located in increasingly remote areas in order to search for relatively highgrade mineral deposits, despite the challenges that arise. These challenges are fundamentally logistic and directly impact ...
A Comparison of the Matrix and Streamline Curvature Methods of Axial Flow Turbomachinery Analysis, From a User’s Point of View
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In recent years two general methods for flow analysis in turbomachinery have been developed, one generally called the Streamline Curvature Method, the other the Matrix Through-Flow Method. Both ...
Kinematic Analysis and Dimensional Synthesis of a Meso-Gripper
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In recent years, applications in industrial assemblies within a size range from 0.5 mm to 100 mm are increasing due to the large demands for new products, especially those associated with digital multimedia. Research on ...
Simulating Bed-Load Transport in a Complex Gravel-Bed River
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: An existing two-dimensional mobile-bed hydrodynamic model has been modified to simulate bed-load transport in a complex gravel-bed river. We investigated the sensitivity of predicted bed load to control parameters, and ...
