Evaluation of Polymer-Based Drilling Fluid Additives Performance Under Harsh Subsurface Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Drilling fluids are designed carefully to yield filter cakes with good performance. Fine-scale assessments have revealed that the filter cake has two distinct layers: an internal layer that is close to the surface and an ...
Hydromechanical Analysis of Upstream Tailings Disposal Facilities
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Very large quantities of mined ore materials are processed annually to obtain the various types of minerals that are essential to industrial processes. Due to its execution simplicity and low cost, upstream tailings disposal ...
Simulation and Experimental Investigation of Guide Vane Length to Improve the Performance of a Diesel Engine Run With Biodiesel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This research investigated the effect of guide vanes into the intake runner of a diesel engine run with higher viscous biodiesel to enhance the incylinder intake airflow characteristics. First, simulation of an internal ...
Probabilistic Identification of Chloride Ingress in Reinforced Concrete Structures: Polynomial Chaos Kalman Filter Approach with Experimental Verification
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study presents a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) framework for assessing the integrity of RC structures subjected to corrosive environmental conditions. The presented framework uses the Polynomial Chaos Kalman ...
Commuting Mode Choice of Suburban University Population and Potential Sustainable Transportation Systems: The Case of Najran University
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Decreasing automobile dependence is an important public policy among those commuting to suburban universities. This study focuses on travel behavior, transportation mode choices, and their determinants of Najran University, ...
Carbon Dioxide and Methane Sequestration in Organic-Rich Shales: Nanoscale Insights into Adsorption and Transport Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Shales are clastic sedimentary rocks consisting mainly of clays, quartz, calcite, and fragments of organic matters. The latter is present as finely dispersed inclusions within the shale matrix. Organic matters, also known ...
Exploring the Contractual Arrangements Associated with the Adoption of the Modern Methods of Construction in the United Kingdom
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The challenges imposed by the construction industry have, for decades, pressured research and practice to consider the adoption of innovations as means of constructive change. An increasingly emerging technique of construction ...
Modeling of a Photovoltaic/Thermal Hybrid Panel for Residential Hot Water System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Despite the extensive body of research on photovoltaic (PV)/thermal systems, a gap remains in evaluating their performance in residential settings. This study aims to bridge this gap by focusing on the energy modeling of ...
Effect of Climate Change on Thermal Loads in Concrete Box Girders
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Throughout their service life, bridges are exposed to ambient actions and environmental influences such as wind, thermal, and snow loads. Bridge design for environmental actions is currently based on observed, historical ...
