Experimental Validation of Analytical Predictions for the “Deviant” Density of Oleo-Nanofluids Based on the nanoFin Effect
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental validation of the analytical predictions for the “deviant” density enhancement of nanofluids is presented in this study. Experimental measurements of density were complemented by transmission electron microscopy ...
Enhancing Efficiency in Collision Avoidance: A Study on Transfer Reinforcement Learning in Autonomous Ships’ Navigation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Collision avoidance in ships and robotic vehicles exemplifies a complex work process that necessitates effective scenario recognition and precise movement decision-making. Machine learning methods addressing such work ...
A Procedure for the Static Design of Activated Carbon-Filled Air Springs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Compared to conventional coil springs in passenger vehicles, air springs allow the vehicle body to be leveled independently of the load while maintaining an almost constant spring rate. However, while vehicle masses are ...
Thermodynamic Analysis of Comprehensive Performance of Carbon Dioxide(R744) and Its Mixture With Ethane(R170) Used in Refrigeration and Heating System at Low Evaporation Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the system performance of R744 and R744/R170 mixed refrigerants used in a single-stage compression transcritical cycle at low evaporation temperature was studied by simulation method, and the effect of ...
Sound Pressure Slopes of Turbulent and Cavitating Liquids, and a Method to Predict Such Levels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents an author-created, unique method called the ABC method to predict sound pressure of turbulent and cavitating liquids according to ISA Standard 75.17 and is measured 1 m from the outer wall of a downstream ...
A Reversible Miniaturized Tesla Valve
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tesla valves are passive fluid diodes originally proposed in 1920 by Nikola Tesla and consist of parallel tubes with bifurcated sections that rectify flow using fluid dynamics principles. Unlike conventional Tesla valves ...
Spacer Fluids for Use With Rock-Based Geopolymer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Developing a spacer fluid compatible with geopolymers and capable of facilitating effective mud displacement becomes imperative when considering the utilization of geopolymers as a complete substitute for cement in oil and ...
Mechanically Induced Deformation of Nuclei in the Tricuspid Valve Interstitial Cells: Experimental Measurements and Multi-scale Computational Simulation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We examined the mechanical deformation of valve interstitial cells (VICs) in the anterior leaflet of the tricuspid valve and explored the relationship between the extracellular matrix (ECM) structure and cellular mechanics. ...
In-Silico Model Validation of Impact on a Composite Helmet Shell
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Numerical impact simulation plays a critical role in the development and improvement of helmet systems. Due to the curvature of the helmet, the selection of impact position on the helmet may affect the ability to correlate ...
E-Fuels as Reduced Carbon Emission Options
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Synthetic “E-fuels,” or electro-fuels, have been introduced as a potential reduced carbon emissions energy source for power generation and vehicle propulsion applications. Environmental change is needed, with the transportation ...
