RISA Reexamination of Phonon Transport Through a Nanoscale Point Contact in Vacuum
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Using a silicon nitride cantilever with an integral silicon tip and a microfabricated platinum–carbon resistance thermometer located close to the tip, a method is developed to concurrently measure both the heat transfer ...
Wind Pressure Mitigation on Gable Roofs for Low-Rise Buildings Using Spoilers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Previous wind disaster investigations have indicated that the roof systems of low-rise buildings often suffer severe damage under the negative wind pressure caused by the sharp corners between the walls and the roof. ...
Long-Term Cyclic Deformation of Soft Clay: Invariance Behavior and Its Application to Laterally Loaded Monopile Foundations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractWhen subjected to low-amplitude cyclic loading, the cumulative strain (εp) in clay is generally observed to follow a power-law relationship with the number
of cycles (N). Analysis of long-term cyclic deformation ...
Nonstationary Frequency Analysis of the Weihe River Annual Runoff Series Using De-Nonstationarity Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Climate change and human activity has increased the degree of nonstationarity in the annual runoff series of the Weihe River Basin, making it difficult to conduct a traditional hydrological frequency analysis in this study ...
Engineering Structure Recognition Method Based on Random Sample Consistency and Point Cloud Data Matching
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Abstract Single architectural styles can no longer meet the visual esthetic demands of the
public. Diverse architectural styles have placed high demands on engineering inspection
methods, while traditional building inspection ...
Whole-Life Analysis Framework for Pile Performance in Soft Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractThroughout the service life of pile-supported infrastructures in soft soil, undrained
cyclic loading induces excess pore pressure accumulation, causing soil strength degradation.
Conversely, subsequent pore pressure ...
An Unsteady Deposition Model for Evaluating CMAS Nonuniform Deposition Behavior and Aerodynamic Performance Degradation Under Hot Streak Clocking Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An unsteady model has been developed for evaluating deposition behavior and aerodynamic performance degradation under the impact of hot streak. The results reveal that hot streak alters the force exerted by the mainstream, ...
Development of an Analytical Design Tool for Monolithic Emission Control Catalysts and Application to Nano Textured Substrate System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An analytical transport/reaction model was developed to simulate the catalytic performance of ZnO nanowires as a catalyst support. ZnO nanowires were chosen because they have easily characterized, controllable features and ...
The Role of Stochastic Forcing in Ensemble Forecasts of the 1997/98 El Niño
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of stochastic intraseasonal variability on the onset of the 1997/98 El Niño was examined using a large ensemble of forecasts starting on 1 December 1996, produced using the Australian Bureau of Meteorology ...
Compaction of Subgrade by High-Energy Impact Rollers on an Airport Runway
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: High-energy impact rollers (IR) have been increasingly used for earthworks by compacting on-site soils. The IR applies high energy to the ground and densifies deeper soils than conventional rollers and plate-type compactors. ...
