Return Levels under Nonstationarity: The Need to Update Infrastructure Design Strategies
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Recent studies propose different metrics for hydrologic design under nonstationarity, such as the effective return level, the expected waiting time (EWT)-based return level, the expected number of events (ENE)-based return ...
Bubble Dynamics and Enhancement of Pool Boiling in Presence of an Idealized Porous Medium: A Numerical Study Using Lattice Boltzmann Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reports a single-component two-dimensional pseudo-potential phase change model using lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) to investigate the enhancement of pool boiling heat transfer inside an array of solid pillars ...
Effects of Presoaked Lightweight Aggregate Addition on Drying Shrinkage
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: It is widely known that presoaked lightweight aggregate (LWA) is greatly beneficial for reducing autogenous shrinkage by providing additional water reservoirs for the mixture. However, in unsealed conditions, when concrete ...
Estimating the Urban Sprawl in the Kolkata Metropolitan Area Using the Shannon–Weiner Index and Evenness Index in the Google Earth Engine
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract Spatial development patterns are studied by urban planners to understand the urban
expansion dynamics of cities and propose schemes and policies for the sustainable
and integrated development of cities. This study ...
Impact of Climate Change on Multihazard Performance of River-Crossing Bridges: Risk, Resilience, and Adaptation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Enhanced flood hazard due to global warming and climate change imposes an additional threat to safety and serviceability of river crossing bridges. This study proposes an integrated approach to assess how climate change ...
Magneto-Convective Transport of Immiscible Binary Fluids in Inclined Channel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work theoretically investigates the interfacial transport of immiscible fluid layers in an inclined fluidic channel in the presence of magnetofluidic actuation. Immiscible binary system consists of both non-Newtonian ...
Physicochemical Characterization and Pyrolysis Kinetic Study of Sugarcane Bagasse Using Thermogravimetric Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical properties and pyrolysis kinetics of sugarcane bagasse (SB). The physiochemical properties of SB were determined to examine its potential for pyrolysis. ...
Detection of Change in Flood Return Levels under Global Warming
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Using recent advancements in the statistical extreme value theory, this study proposes a methodology for detection of change in flood return levels under climate change. Nonstationary scaling of regional projected peak ...
