RISVertical Stress Isobars for Trenches and Mine Stopes Containing Granular Backfills
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The vertical stresses within granular fills contained in trenches can be determined using Marston’s theory or numerical modeling. Marston’s theory gives only the average value of the vertical stress at a depth. Numerical ...
Vertical Stress Isobars for Silos and Square Backfilled Mine Stopes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Often granular materials are stored in vertical containers with circular or square cross sections. The storage material can be food grains, pharmaceutical powders, chemical pellets, or geomaterials such as mine fills. The ...
Forced and Natural Convective Drying of Trehalose/Water Thin Films: Implication in the Desiccation Preservation of Mammalian Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Trehalose is believed to offer desiccation protection to mammalian cells by forming stable glassy matrices. The goal of the current study was to explore the desiccation kinetics of thin films ...
Thermal Therapy in Urologic Systems: A Comparison of Arrhenius and Thermal Isoeffective Dose Models in Predicting Hyperthermic Injury
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The Arrhenius and thermal isoeffective dose (TID) models are the two most commonly used models for predicting hyperthermic injury. The TID model is essentially derived from the Arrhenius model, ...
Controlled Vacuum Seeding as a Means of Generating Uniform Cellular Distribution in Electrospun Polycaprolactone (PCL) Scaffolds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A major challenge encountered in using electrospun scaffolds for tissue engineering is the non-uniform cellular distribution in the scaffold with increasing depth under normal passive seeding ...
Investigation to Study the Applicability of Solid Lubricant in Turning AISI 1040 steel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Machining of materials has received substantial attention due to the increasing use of machining processes in various industrial applications. The research in this area is intended mainly to ...
Vertical Stress Determination within Backfilled Mine Stopes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Determining the vertical stresses within underground mine stopes is necessary for designing the barricades that block the drives during filling. This paper discusses two different procedures that can be used for determining ...
Supraphysiological Thermal Injury in Dunning AT-1 Prostate Tumor Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To investigate the potential application of thermal therapy in the treatment of prostate cancer, the effects of supraphysiological temperatures (40–70°C) for clinically relevant time periods ...
Erratum to “Controlled Vacuum Seeding as a Means of Generating Uniform Cellular Distribution in Electrospun Polycaprolactone (PCL) Scaffolds,” ASME J. Biomech. Eng., 2009, 131(7), p. 074521, DOI: 10.1115/1.3173283
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: It has recently come to our attention that there were errors in the proper referencing of Table 1 and discrepancies in the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs in Table 2.The caption for Table 1 should read as ...
Effect of Nonlinear Reaction on Miscible Gravitational Instability through Dispersive Porous Medium
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Gravitational instability in porous media is observed in numerous natural systems in which reaction at the penetrating chemical front is a common occurrence. Most often, this reaction kinetics is difficult to capture and ...
