Spacing Modulation of Magnetic Head Due to Topographical Feature of Disk Surface
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: To achieve high recording density, the combination of low flying head and smooth disk surface is very desirable. Although high stiction associated with the smooth surface can be avoided by ...
Three-Dimensional Vortex Method for the Simulation of Bubbly Flow
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study proposes a three-dimensional vortex method for the simulation of bubbly flow. The method discretizes the vorticity field by vortex elements. The behavior of the vortex element and ...
Unified Interpretation of Crack Growth Rates of Ni-base Alloys in LWR Environments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Primary water stress corrosion cracking (PWSCC) of vessel penetrations (VP) fabricated from nickel based alloys such as alloy 600 and alloy 182 weld metal has created a great demand for ...
Lateral Fluid Forces on Whirling Centrifugal Impeller (1st Report: Theory)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Lateral fluid forces acting on a rotating centrifugal impeller in whirling motion are analyzed using unsteady potential flow theory. Impellers operating in diffusers with and without vanes are ...
Lateral Fluid Forces on Whirling Centrifugal Impeller (2nd Report: Experiment in Vaneless Diffuser)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fluid forces acting on a rotating centrifugal impeller in whirling motion are studied experimentally. A two-dimensional impeller installed in a parallel walled vaneless diffuser was forced on a ...
Study of Slider Dynamics Over Very Smooth Magnetic Disks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Flying characteristics of 50 percent negative pressure sliders on aluminum, glass, and silicon disks with different surface characteristics are described. By using an AE (acoustic emission) and ...
Quantitative Prediction of EAC Crack Growth Rate of Sensitized Type 304 Stainless Steel in Boiling Water Reactor Environments Based on EPFEM
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The quantitative prediction of environmentally assisted cracking (EAC) or stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is essential in order to predict service life and also the structural integrity and safety ...
Estimation of Cirrus Optical Thickness from Sun Photometer Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A method is proposed to estimate the optical thickness of cirrus clouds from ground-based sun photometry. Transfer calculations of solar radiation in ice clouds were made by the Monte Carlo method. A scattering phase ...
Beam on Partially Yielded Foundation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A beam supported by an elastic/perfectly plastic foundation is considered for a particular case where a concentrated force and a moment are acting on one end of the beam. This analysis is broadly applicable for bonded‐joint ...
A Finite-Volume Solution with a Bidirectional Upwind Difference Scheme for the Three-Dimensional Radiative Transfer Equation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new calculation scheme is proposed for the explicitly discretized solution of the three-dimensional (3D) radiation transfer equation (RTE) for inhomogeneous atmospheres. To separate the independent variables involved in ...
