Bryan's Factor for Truncated Spherical and Conical Shells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Closedform expressions are derived for the Bryan's factor of truncated spherical and conical shells through a Galerkin procedure. Results lead to the value obtained by G. H. Bryan for the case of the ring, thereby demonstrating ...
A Finite Element Analysis of Mode III Quasi-Static Crack Growth at a Ductile-Brittle Interface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Steady-state quasi-static crack growth along a bimaterial interface is analyzed under Mode III, small-scale yielding conditions using a finite element procedure. The interface is formed by an ...
Bayesian Two-Phase Gamma Process Model for Damage Detection and Prognosis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a data-driven approach to damage detection and prognosis in the context of structural health monitoring. One of the main issues in dealing with structural damage and degradation is its hidden stochastic ...
Performance of Pedestrian-Load Models through Experimental Studies on Lightweight Aluminum Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Aluminum structures provide a high strength-to-weight ratio, are corrosion resistant, and are esthetically pleasing. Hence, their use in bridge construction has recently begun to increase, especially for pedestrian bridges. ...
Special Issue on Recent Advances in Seismic Design, Analysis, and Protection of Highway Bridges
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Decentralized Modal Identification of a Pony Truss Pedestrian Bridge Using Wireless Sensors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most of the vibration-based ambient modal identification methods in the literature are structured to process vibration data collected from a dense array of sensors centrally to yield modal information. For large systems, ...
Convection Enhanced Intravitreous Drug Delivery in Human Eye
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Twodimensional computational model has been developed for simulation of convectionassisted drug transport during intravitreal drug delivery for vitrectomized human eye. The convection current in vitreous humor was induced ...
Porous Medium Modeling of Combined Effects of Cell Migration and Anisotropicity of Stratum Corneum on Transdermal Drug Delivery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A numerical model for transdermal drug delivery (TDD) has been developed by treating skin as a composite, dynamic, porous medium. Governing unsteady mass transport equations in porous medium was solved for different cases ...
Automating Data Collection for Robotic Bridge Inspections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Regular bridge inspections are key to maintaining healthy infrastructure and to preventing unanticipated structural failures. In recent years, mobile inspection robots have been proposed as a tool to aid bridge inspections. ...
Hydraulic Model for Accelerated Flows Through Porous Medium in the Form Drag-Dominated Regime
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The pressure drop for steady uniform flows (UF) through low permeability porous media—packed bed of particles (balls and rods) and sand (K<10−7m2)—is predicted using the existing global Hazen-Dupuit-Darcy (HDD) hydraulic ...
