    • Areas of Contact and Pressure Distribution in Bolted Joints 

      H. H. Gould; B. B. Mikic (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1972)
      The pressure distribution in the contact zones and the radii at which flat and smooth axisymmetric, linear elastic plates will separate were computed for several thicknesses as a function of ...

    • A Simplified Analytical Model of a Flash Evaporator Stage Having Channel Flow 

      C. H. Coogan; P. S. Brewster (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 1972)
      Free surface flow with evaporation such as occurs in multi-stage sea water evaporators is modeled. Using one experimentally determined constant, i.e., the turbulent thermal conductivity of the ...
