Modeling of Combined Thermal and Mechanical Action in Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To describe the response of concrete under combined thermal and mechanical action it is necessary to abandon the usual assumption that thermal strain and mechanical strain can be treated as mutually independent, additive ...
Parker-Type Acoustic Resonances in the Return Guide Vane Cascade of a Centrifugal Compressor – Theoretical Modeling and Experimental Verification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The potential of acoustic resonances within vane arrays of turbomachinery has been known since the fundamental investigations of Parker back in the sixties and seventies. In his basic studies ...
Elastic Wood Properties from Dynamic Tests and Computer Modeling
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Elastic moduli for a specimen of Norway spruce (
On the Applicability of a Spoked-Wheel Wake Generator for Clocking Investigations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A comprehensive investigation was carried out using two different experimental setups: A 1.5-stage axial turbine and a simplified model, a “spoked-wheel” setup with a rotating wake generator ...
Forcing a Distributed Glacier Mass Balance Model with the Regional Climate Model REMO. Part II: Downscaling Strategy and Results for Two Swiss Glaciers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Distributed glacier mass balance models are efficient tools for the assessment of climate change impacts on glaciers at regional scales and at high spatial resolution (25?100 m). In general, these models are driven by time ...
Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams with Loss of Bond at Longitudinal Reinforcement
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effect of loss of bond for longitudinal reinforcement on the structural behavior of RC beams is investigated in a test series of six beams where nominal length without bond is varied. Loss of bond is created with plastic ...
The Øresund Experiment—A Nordic Mesoscale Dispersion Experiment Over a Land-Water-Land Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The atmospheric dispersion process and the modification in the wind field across than 20-km-wide ?resund strait between Denmark and Sweden were studied in this project. The meteorological observational network extended ...
Errors in Net Radiometry: Comparison and Evaluation of Six Radiometer Designs
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Net radiation is a fundamental variable in meteorology, but net radiometers have not been used extensively since the 1960s because of what is commonly considered as unreliable function. This study was conducted to determine ...
Design of Rectangular Footings in Cohesionless Soil Subjected to Torsion
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article describes a new method for the design of rectangular foundations in cohesionless soil subject to a combination of vertical and horizontal loads, overturning moments, and torsional moments. It can be seen as a ...
A Parallelized Coupled Navier-Stokes/Vortex-Panel Solver
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A Navier-Stokes solver, CFX V5.6, is coupled with an in-house developed Vortex-Panel method for the numerical analysis of wind turbines. The Navier-Stokes zone is confined to the near-field ...
