RISCauses of Decadal Changes of the Freshwater Content in the Arctic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecadal changes of the liquid freshwater content in the Arctic Ocean are studied with a suite of forward and adjoint model simulations. Adjoint sensitivities show that freshwater volume changes in the Norwegian Atlantic ...
Local-Plate and Distortional Postbuckling Behavior of Cold-Formed Steel Lipped Channel Columns with Intermediate Stiffeners
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper reports a detailed investigation concerning the local-plate and distortional elastic postbuckling behaviors of cold-formed steel lipped channel columns with web and flange intermediate stiffeners (the corresponding ...
Shear Deformable Generalized Beam Theory for the Analysis of Thin-Walled Composite Members
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the incorporation of shear deformation effects into a generalized beam theory (GBT) formulation developed to analyze the first-order (linear) and buckling behavior of composite thin-walled members made ...
Generalized Beam Theory to Analyze the Vibration of Open-Section Thin-Walled Composite Members
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the formulation of a generalized beam theory (GBT) to analyze the vibration behavior of composite thin-walled prismatic members displaying straight axis, open-section, and arbitrary orthotropy. It ...
A Modular Nitinol Model With Lode Angle-Based Asymmetry and Improved Representation of the Superelastic Loops for Medical Device Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We describe a phenomenological constitutive model for representing Nitinol in medical device applications. The intent is to capture some of the response features important to medical device applications that are neglected ...
Experimental Investigation of the Shipping of Water on the Bow of a Containership
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of the shipping of water on the bow of a containership. Model tests were carried out in head regular and irregular waves of ...
Using Digital Socialization to Support Geographically Dispersed AEC Project Teams
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the field of knowledge management research, socialization means to convert individual into group tacit knowledge. This process matters from the outset of an architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) project to ...
Progressive Damage Analysis of Web Crippling of GFRP Pultruded I-Sections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Glass fiber–reinforced polymer (GFRP) pultruded profiles are prone to web buckling and/or crushing when subjected to concentrated loads in the direction transverse to the pultrusion axis due to their low elastic and strength ...
Rocky Road of Urban Transportation Contracts
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The provision of urban transport services entails several challenges. Past research has been concerned with economic (e.g., tariff setting and financial sustainability), technological (e.g., different modes or energy ...
Global Loads on a FPSO Induced by a Set of Freak Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a systematic study of the structural loads induced by abnormal waves on a floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) platform. This work is a follow-up to a previous ...
