RISNumerical Study on Creeping Flow of Burgers’ Fluids through a Peristaltic Tube
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Motivated by the objective of improving an understanding of the complex rheological fluid dynamics in fluid engineering and biomedical engineering, we consider the creeping flow of Burgers’ fluid ...
Irrigation Timing for Wheat Based on Climate, Crop, and Soil Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A user‐oriented technique for timing irrigation of wheat is presented. The technique is based on actual crop evapotranspiration, initial soil moisture in the top 0.6‐m profile, available water holding capacity of the top ...

Measuring Viscoelasticity of Soft Samples Using Atomic Force Microscopy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Relaxation indentation experiments using atomic force microscopy (AFM) are used to obtain viscoelastic material properties of soft samples. The quasilinear viscoelastic (QLV) model formulated by ...
Appraisal of Statistical Predictability under Uncertain Inputs: SST to Rainfall
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Climatic variables that are used as inputs in hydrologic models often have large measurement uncertainties that are mostly ignored in hydrologic applications because of lack of appropriate tools. This study develops a set ...
