Abstract: The semipermeable membrane behavior of clay effectively reduces solute flux and therefore can be beneficial in clays used as barriers in chemical containment applications. Except for geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs), the ...

Abstract: This paper presents preliminary results of an aeroelastic wind tunnel test on a cable dome. The structural design of the model is given in detail. Similarity requirements based on dimensional ...

Abstract: The effect of film-hole geometry and angle on turbine blade leading edge film cooling has been experimentally studied using the pressure sensitive paint technique. The leading edge is modeled ...

Abstract: A one-dimensional, vertical (1DV) grid model has been developed for the prediction of sediment transport in combined wave-current flow under sheet flow conditions. The model uses a one-equation turbulence closure scheme ...

Abstract: This paper is focused on the effect of film-hole configurations on platform film cooling. The platform is cooled by purge flow from a simulated stator-rotor seal combined with discrete-hole ...

Abstract: According to the shortcoming of cement-stabilized macadam that is prone to cracking, by evaluating anti-crack performance of cement-stabilized macadam, choosing a type of cement-stabilized macadam having good anti-crack ...

Abstract: This paper presents a theoretical and experimental analysis of an anomalous data detection treatment for roller-integrated compaction measurement (RICM) data. Anomalous data, which may be discovered during the collection ...

Abstract: robabilistic projection of climate change consists of formulating the climate change information in a probabilistic manner at either global or regional scale. This can produce useful results for studies of the impact of ...
