RISSynergistic Effect of J-Shape Airfoil on the Performance of Darrieus-Type Straight-Bladed Vertical Axis Wind Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Darrieus-type straight-bladed vertical axis wind turbines (SB-VAWTs) are more appropriate for generating electricity than other VAWTs mostly suitable for regions having low to medium wind speed. The installation of SB-VAWTs ...
New Dynamic Multiwave Solutions of the Fractional Peyrard–Bishop DNA Model
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we have studied the new solitary wave solutions of the beta-fractional derivative form of the Peyrard–Bishop DNA model (PB-DNAM). These solutions are responsible for analyzing the nonlinear interaction between ...
Bragg Scattering of Surface Gravity Waves by a Submerged Composite Wavy Porous Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Surface gravity wave interaction of composite wavy porous plate is studied by developing a numerical model using the boundary element method in the context of two-dimensional linear potential theory. Bragg scattering ...
Entropy-Based Streamflow Estimation in Data-Scarce Rivers Using MODIS–Landsat Fusion Imagery
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractFew river systems around the world are adequately gauged. Remote sensing (RS) technology
shows great potential for improving the estimation of stream characteristics in regions
where field data is limited. However, ...
Volume Conservation Controversy of the Variable Parameter Muskingum–Cunge Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The study analyzes the volume conservation problem of the variable parameter Muskingum–Cunge (VPMC) method for which some remedial solutions have been advocated in recent literature. The limitation of the VPMC method to ...
Bending of Composite Stiffened Hypar Shell Roofs under Point Load
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The present paper applies a combination of an eight noded shell element with a three noded beam element, both curved and isoparametric to solve a bending problem of a composite stiffened hypar shell subjected to a concentrated ...
Dynamic Calibration of a Coaxial Thermocouples for Short Duration Transient Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Coaxial thermocouple sensors are suitable for measuring highly transient surface heat fluxes because the response times of these sensors are very small (∼0.1 ms). These robust sensors have the flexibility of mounting ...
Oblique Wave Trapping by Porous Structures Near a Wall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The current study deals with the oblique wave trapping by bottom-standing and surface-piercing porous structures of finite width placed at a finite distance from a vertical rigid wall. Using the Sollitt and Cross model for ...
Pullout Resistance of Buried Pipeline in Cohesionless Soil Nearby Sloping Ground
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The vertical and lateral pullout capacity of a long pipeline buried in a cohesionless soil nearby sloping ground has been investigated by using lower-bound limit analysis in combination with finite elements and linear ...
