RISScaling Factors Quantifying Seismic Load Uncertainty with Soil Nonlinearity Effect in Displacement-Based Design of Bridge Abutments
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The displacement-based design methods for bridge abutments, essentially cantilever retaining walls, require an input of expected ground motion on-site. For major projects, these motions are obtained based on site-specific ...
Interactions Between Shock Waves and Liquid Droplet Clusters: Interfacial Physics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Direct Pore-Scale Simulations of Fully Periodic Unit Cells of Different Regular Lattices
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Open-cell metal foams are known for their superior heat dissipation capabilities. The morphological, pressure drop, and heat transfer characteristics of stochastic metal foams manufactured through traditional “foaming” ...
The Effect of Weber Number on Spray and Vaporization Characteristics of Liquid Jets Injected in Air Crossflow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper details a numerical investigation conducted to systematically evaluate the effects of aerodynamic Weber number, in the range from 68 to 136, on spray characteristics and gaseous fluid dynamics when liquid jets ...
Thermal Performance Analysis of a Rectangular Longitudinal Finned Solar Air Heater With Semicircular Absorber Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermal performance of a singlepass singleglass cover solar air heater consisting of semicircular absorber plate finned with rectangular longitudinal fins is investigated. The analysis is carried out for different hydraulic ...
Double Duct Packed Bed Solar Air Heater Under Combined Single and Recyclic Double Air Pass
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present work intended to investigate thermal and thermohydraulic efficiencies of two different models of recyclic double pass packed bed solar air heaters experimentally. ModelI consists of single air pass through two ...
On the Integration of Layered Manufacturing and Material Removal Processes

Abstract: In this paper, we develop methodologies for the integration of layered manufacturing and traditional material removal processes into an integrated manufacturing setup. The scenarios under which ...
Estimation of the Linear Spring Constant for a Laterally Loaded Monopile Embedded in Nonlinear Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the case of large-diameter monopiles, pile deflection against lateral loads must be predicted accurately to determine the direct influence on the superstructure. One-dimensional (1D) linear models of the pile-soil system, ...
Influence of Morphology on Flow Law Characteristics in Open-Cell Foams: An Overview of Usual Approaches and Correlations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Foam structures have been a subject of intensive research since the last decade. The pore space in open-cell foam is interconnected, forming perforated channels of varying cross-sectional areas where fluid can flow. Knowledge ...
State-of-the-Art of Pressure Drop in Open-Cell Porous Foams: Review of Experiments and Correlations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Foam structures are a class of modern microporous media that possesses high thermal conductivity, large accessible specific surface area, and high porosities. Nowadays, industrial applications, such as filtration, heat ...
