RISModeling Ampacity in Advanced Electrical Conductors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An enabling advantage of carbonbased conductors is their low density and high thermal conductivity. To put this in the perspective of applications, current rating of carbonbased and copper nanocomposite conductors of ...
Machine Learning for Enhanced Regional Seismic Risk Assessments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The ability to conduct accurate regional seismic risk assessments is key to informing a risk-reduction policy and fostering community resilience. This paper presents a machine learning-based framework to predict a building’s ...
Numerical Study on the Effect of Cracking on Surface Resistivity of Plain and Reinforced Concrete Elements
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effect of discrete cracks on the Wenner probe measurements for surface resistivity of plain and reinforced concrete elements is investigated. A numerical modeling approach is utilized to study the effect of a wide range ...
Performance Assessment of a Novel Solar and Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion Based Multigeneration System for Coastal Areas
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new multigeneration system based on an ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) system equipped with flat plate and PV/T solar collectors, a reverse osmosis (RO) desalination unit to produce fresh water, a single effect ...
