Reconstruction of Indicated Pressure Waveform in a Spark-Ignition Engine From Block Vibration Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Knowledge of the pressure waveform in each cylinder of a spark-ignition engine may provide useful diagnostic information concerning engine operation. This paper presents a method for the ...
How to Model a Bonded Joint
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The problem is considered of a semi-infinite plane region bonded to a rigid region, with the boundary of contact being in the shape of a cosine curve. It is shown that, when a rigid ...
An Analytical Study on the Feedback between Large- and Small-Scale Eddies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The feedback between large-scale stationary Rossby waves and small-scale high-frequency eddies is computed analytically in the framework of a barotropic and frictionless model atmosphere. The Rossby wave is meant to model ...
Amplification and Meridional Confinement of Stationary and Quasi-stationary Eddies in a Two-Layer Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The problem of resonance and meridional confinement of planetary-scale waves is investigated in the framework of a quasigeostrophic, two-layer, ?-plane model with lateral sponge layers. It is shown that the model resonant ...
Hysteretic Behavior Characterization of Friction-Damped Braced Frames
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The dissipative capacity of friction-damped bracing systems is evaluated by a statistical characterization of the amplitude and frequency of the slip excursions during a seismic excitation. One-story, friction-damped braced ...
Dense Gas Thermodynamic Properties of Single and Multicomponent Fluids for Fluid Dynamics Simulations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The use of dense gases in many technological fields requires modern fluid dynamic solvers capable of treating the thermodynamic regions where the ideal gas approximation does not apply. Moreover, ...
The Slope of Moist Symmetric Instability with Water Loading
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Idealized numerical experiments, supported by analytic considerations, are performed to determine the preferred direction of symmetric instability when water loading is considered. It is concluded that the most unstable ...
Efficiency Improvement in Precombustion CO2 Removal Units With a Waste–Heat Recovery ORC Power Plant
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an analysis about recovering lowgrade thermal energy from a precombustion CO2 capture process as part of an integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) power plant by means of organic rankine cycle ...
Analysis of the Lateral Thrust in Bolted Steel Buckling-Restrained Braces. I: Experimental and Numerical Results
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This work presents an experimental and numerical analysis of the lateral forces exerted by the inner core of a buckling-restrained brace (BRB) when, after buckling in compression, it arrives into contact with the external ...
Analysis of the Lateral Thrust in Bolted Steel Buckling-Restrained Braces. II: Engineering Analytical Estimates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Part I of this work was concerned with the experimental and numerical analysis of the lateral force, or thrust, exerted by the inner core of a buckling-restrained brace (BRB) when, after buckling in compression, it arrives ...
