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 ...
Scaling Laws for the Peak Overpressure of a Cannon Blast
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For large cannons, blast overpressure can have a detrimental effect on the crew in the near field (i.e., within a distance of 50 tube diameters or calibers from the muzzle center) as well as on the support personnel and ...
Stochastic Modeling and Reliability Analysis of Wing Flutter
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this work, a physics-based first-order reliability method (FORM) algorithm is proposed for the flutter reliability analysis of an aircraft wing in the frequency domain. The limit state function, which is an implicit ...
Antibiotics Removal via Novel N-Doped Carbon Derived from Carbonization of Different Forms of Polyaniline
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: N-doped carbon (CP) was synthesized through carbonization of a polyaniline (PANI) prepared using interfacial polymerization. Different forms of PANI, such as emeraldine salt (ES), emeraldine base (EB), and aniline oligomers, ...
Stochastic Finite Element Buckling Analysis of Laminated Plates With Circular Cutout Under Uniaxial Compression
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A generalized stochastic buckling analysis of laminated composite plates, with and without centrally located circular cutouts having random material properties, is presented under uniaxial compressive ...
First-Order Design of GPS Networks Using Particle Swarm Optimization
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper discusses the optimization problem of first-order design (FOD) of global positioning system (GPS) networks. The classical least-squares technique was revised for the formulation of the objective function of FOD ...
LFT-FSI Modeling Approach for Transonic Flutter Prediction of Aeroelastic Systems Considering Uncertainties
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractIn this work, a linear fractional transformation–fluid structural interaction (LFT-FSI)
approach is developed by coupling a low-fidelity robust flutter method with high-fidelity
FSI solutions and applied on the ...
Recreating Romance of Civil Engineering: 2001 Summer Camp at Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur, India
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper describes an initiative to enthuse undergraduate Civil Engineering (CE) students in India about the profession. Various issues impacting CE students are addressed in a novel approach, the 2001 Summer Camp at IIT ...
Numerical Study of Purely Viscous Non Newtonian Flow in an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It is well known that blood has nonNewtonian properties, but it is generally accepted that blood behaves as a Newtonian fluid at shear rates above 100 s−1. However, in transient conditions, there are times and locations ...
Machine Learning–Based Optimization of Frictional Power Losses in Spur-Geared Transmissions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Frictional power losses in spur-geared transmission systems significantly affect the efficiency and performance of mechanical systems. Understanding and minimizing these PVZP are crucial for enhancing gear system ...
