RISEffective Technique to Estimate Cross Model Parameters
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The Cross model has been successfully used for modeling the shear thinning behavior of asphalt binders. Usually minimization of least squares/absolute error is used for obtaining model parameters. The curve fitted using ...
Revitalizing Achievement by Using Instrumentation in Science Education (RAISE), a GK-12 Fellows Project
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Revitalizing Achievement by using Instrumentation in Science Education (RAISE) was a National Science Foundation (NSF) funded project in which undergraduate and graduate engineering students (fellows) assisted high school ...
Variability of the Tropical Ocean Surface Temperatures at Decadal–Multidecadal Timescales. Part I: The Atlantic Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Gridded time series from the Global Ocean Surface Temperature Atlas were analyzed with a variety of techniques to identify spatial structures and oscillation periods of the tropical Atlantic sea surface temperature (SST) ...
Robust Skewness-Kurtosis Descriptor for Damping Calibration from Frequency Response
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper attempts to define simple, consistent, and robust statistical descriptors for the calibration of damping in linear and nonlinear systems through the frequency response in the presence of variability and uncertainties ...
Meridionally Propagating Interannual-to-Interdecadal Variability in a Linear Ocean-Atmosphere Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Zonally symmetric sea level pressure perturbations have been observed to oscillate at 3?6-yr periods and travel from one polar region to the opposite polar region in approximately 10 years. Based on previous modeling of ...
Models for the Interplay of Mechanics, Electrochemistry, Thermodynamics, and Kinetics in Lithium-Ion Batteries
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We review a broad range of topics related to the interplay of electrochemistry and mechanics in all solid-state batteries. The modeling frameworks that exist in the literature are varied in terms of their sophistication ...
Comparison of Response Amplitude Operator Curve Generation Methods for Scaled Floating Renewable Energy Platforms in Ocean Wave Basin
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Response amplitude operator (RAO) curves are commonly employed to assess the dynamic behavior of floating offshore structures in the frequency domain. There are multiple methods used to obtain RAOs for numerical models, ...
Ocean Wave Directional Distribution from GPS Buoy Observations off the West Coast of Ireland: Assessment of a Wavelet-Based Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Impact of Sources of Damping on the Fragility Estimates of Wind Turbine Towers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fragility estimates in wind turbine towers have been investigated but the effect of damping on fragility has not been studied. While damping can often be small, it can come from different sources for a wind turbine. This ...
The Compressive Response of Idealized Cermetlike Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Metals reinforced with a high volume fraction of hard particles, e.g., cermets, have properties that are more akin to those of granular media than conventional composites. Here, the mechanical properties and deformation ...
