RISSeismic Risk Assessment of Four-Span Bridges in Montreal Designed Using the Canadian Bridge Design Code
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The seismic performance of 15 continuous four-span bridges with different arrangements of column heights and diameters and designed using the 2006 Canadian Highway Bridge Design Code provisions were studied using incremental ...
Modeling Ampacity in Advanced Electrical Conductors
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: An enabling advantage of carbonbased conductors is their low density and high thermal conductivity. To put this in the perspective of applications, current rating of carbonbased and copper nanocomposite conductors of ...
Leaning in Passive Bipeds Changes the Game: How Including Leaning 3D Biped Affects Gait and Stability
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Despite considerable advancements, passive bipedal locomotion in 3D space remains a significant technical challenge. This study develops the natural dynamics of a general 3D passive walking model with curved feet, ...
Interfacial Slippage of a Unidirectional Fiber Composite Under Longitudinal Shearing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Interfacial slippage of a unidirectional fiber composite under longitudinal shearing is analyzed. The finite concentration of fibers has been taken into account by utilizing the composite cylinder ...
A Doubly Periodic Rectangular Array of Fiber-Matrix Interfacial Cracks Under Longitudinal Shearing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The antiplane strain problem of a unidirectional fiber composite consisting of a doubly periodic rectangular array of fibers containing interfacial cracks in an infinite matrix is considered. The ...
Combined Effects of Saltwater and Water Flow on Deterioration of Concrete under Freeze–Thaw Cycles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This article outlines the combined effects of saltwater and water flow on deterioration of concrete under freezing and thawing cycles. In order to simulate the real freezing situation that concrete usually undergoes, four ...
Investigation of Sub-Grid Scale Turbulence-Radiation Interaction Effects on Turbulence Energy Transport and Varying Thermophysical Properties Using Large Eddy Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The main objective of this article is to investigate sub-grid scale turbulence–radiation interaction (SGS TRI) effects on SGS turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) fluctuations and varying thermophysical properties in a partially ...
Optimizing Task Allocation in Human-in-the-Lead Construction Robotics: A Framework for Wood Assembly–Based Robotics in Panelized Construction
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractExisting human–robot collaboration (HRC) research often overemphasizes an equal partnership,
which can hinder the effective integration of robots in the dynamic environment of
industrialized construction (IC). This ...
Analysis of Axial Loading of Pile Groups in Multilayered Elastic Soil
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a semianalytical solution for axially loaded pile groups in multilayered, linear-elastic soil profiles. The piles in the group can have circular, square, or rectangular cross sections. The soil displacement ...
