RISInvestigation of Reduction in Buckling Capacity of Cylindrical Shells Under External Pressure Due to Partially Cut Ring Stiffeners
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Circumferential ring stiffeners are commonly used to improve the buckling strength of cylindrical shells. Under special circumstances, stiffener ring needs to be partially cut in order to avoid interference with vessel ...
Overview of Nuclear Piping Seismic Verification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nuclear power has gone through several transitional phases worldwide with early development, design, and construction in 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, particularly in Japan and U.S. A relatively less active period followed in ...
A Model-Based Method for In Situ Viscosity Measurement With Continuous-Wave Ultrasound
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Robust methods for viscosity measurement in situ are needed in many industrial applications. In this work, we developed a method to capitalize on the strong signal-to-noise ratio imparted by continuous-wave (CW) ultrasound ...

Cleaning Porous Pavements Using a Reverse Flush Process
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Porous pavements are asphalt or concrete pavement surfaces designed to allow moisture to flow through the surface into an underlying reservoir or into the subgrade soil. Porous pavements prevent pollutants from entering ...
Numerical Studies on Hydrogen Distribution in Enclosures in the Presence of Condensing Steam
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hydrogen release in confined spaces is an important safety issue, which is even more important in the context of severe accident in nuclear reactors. In severe accidents, hydrogen release is associated with release of steam ...
A Compliant Transmission Mechanism With Intermittent Contacts for Cycle-Doubling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel compliant transmission mechanism that doubles the frequency of a cyclic input is presented in this paper. The compliant cycle-doubler is a contact-aided compliant mechanism that uses ...
Prioritization of Capacity Investment Projects with Stakeholder Divergence Criteria for Coordinated Infrastructure Development

A Novel Compliant Mechanism for Converting Reciprocating Translation Into Enclosing Curved Paths
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper introduces a novel contact-aided compliant mechanism that uses intermittent contacts to convert a single translatory reciprocating input into two output curves, which intersect to enclose ...
Offshore Outsourcing in Global Design Networks
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Researchers have examined the benefits of outsourcing engineering design services from various perspectives. However, the process by which complex engineering design work is outsourced across international boundaries ...
