RISKinematic Synthesis of a Six-Member Mechanism for Automotive Steering
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A six-member mechanism has been synthesized to achieve five precision points of an automotive steering mechanism. The inner wheel can be rotated up to 61 degrees with fair accuracy. This result ...
Failure Process of Brittle Rock Using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a numerical procedure based on smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to analyze the failure process of a rock medium by predicting the initiation of microcracks. The subsequent propagation of cracks has ...
Numerical Study of Counterflow Diffusion Flame and Water Spray Interaction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper reports numerical investigation concerning the interaction of a laminar methane–air counterflow diffusion flame with monodisperse and polydisperse water spray. Commercial code ansys fluent with reduced chemistry ...
Waves Due to a Moving Oscillatory Surface Pressure in a Stratified Fluid
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The initial value problem of waves generated by an oscillatory pressure distribution moving uniformly on the free surface of a two-layer fluid is solved. The integral representations of the ...
Capillary-Gravity Waves Generated Against a Vertical Cliff in a Fluid of Finite Depth

A Study on Synthesis of Chemical Crosslinked Polyvinyl Alcohol-Based Alkaline Membrane for the Use in Low-Temperature Alkaline Direct Ethanol Fuel Cell
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, an economical and simple procedure was adopted for the fabrication of chemically crosslinked polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based KOH-doped alkaline membrane for the use in an alkaline direct ethanol fuel cell ...
Finite Volume Model for Shallow Water Equations with Improved Treatment of Source Terms
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A simple yet precise relation between the flux gradient and the bed slope source term is presented, which produces a net force within the cell with an inclined water surface, but ensures still water condition when there ...
Effect of Spatial Variability of Soil Properties on Bearing Capacity of Strip Footing under Fuzzy Uncertainty
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study investigates the effect of spatial variability of soil parameters on the probability of failure of strip footings against bearing pressure resting on a homogeneous and two-layered soil system. The uncertain ...
Numerical Investigation of a Confined Laminar Jet Impingement Cooling of Heat Sources Using Nanofluids
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The thermal and fluid dynamic behavior of a confined two-dimensional steady laminar nanofluid jet impinging on a horizontal plate embedded with five discrete heating elements subjected to a constant surface heat flux has ...
Numerical Investigation of Laminar Impinging Jet Cooling of a Protruded Heat Source
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermofluid dynamics of an unconfined steady two-dimensional laminar jet impinging on an isothermal protruded heater is numerically studied for low jet inlet Reynolds number (Re) between 50 and 250. Results are shown for ...
