Influence of turbulent flow characteristics on flame behaviour in diffuser combustors
(Elsevier, 2019-03-01)
The influence of turbulence on flame location in a diffuser-type combustor is the focus of this study. Two types of diffuser combustors were selected to study the influence of turbulence intensity and length scale on flame ...
Impact of functional nanofluid coolant on radiator performance
(ASME, 2019-08)
While a number of liquids are preferred in many heating and cooling applications, their thermal capacity can be a limiting factor in many thermal systems. Therefore, a series of methods such as use of mixtures of two or ...
Robust reformulations of ambiguous chance constraints with discrete probability distributions
(Balikesir University, 2019)
This paper proposes robust reformulations of ambiguous chance constraints when the underlying family of distributions is discrete and supported in a so-called ``p-box'' or ``p-ellipsoidal'' uncertainty set. Using the robust ...
Depression screening from voice samples of patients affected by parkinson’s disease
(S. Karger AG, 2019-05-01)
Depression is a common mental health problem leading to significant disability worldwide. It is not only common but also commonly co-occurs with other mental and neurological illnesses. Parkinson's disease (PD) gives rise ...
Probabilistic logic programming with beta-distributed random variables
(Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence, 2019-07-17)
We enable aProbLog-a probabilistic logical programming approach-to reason in presence of uncertain probabilities represented as Beta-distributed random variables. We achieve the same performance of state-of-the-art algorithms ...
Flood performance and dislocation assessment for Lumberton homes after Hurricane Matthew
(Seoul National University, 2019-05-26)
In order to better understand community resilience following a disaster, a multidisciplinary research team from the Center of Excellence (CoE) for Risk-Based Community Resilience Planning and the National Institute of ...
A new embankment construction method through the analysis of possible failure mechanisms in soft soils
(International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2019)
A new method to analyze the failure behavior of embankments on soft soils is proposed in this paper. The proposed method is based on the evaluation of stability considerations applied on a possible mechanism which can be ...
The effect of interlaminar graphene nano-sheets reinforced e-glass fiber/ epoxy on low velocity impact response of a composite plate
(IOP Publishing, 2018-05)
In this study, we compare the inter-laminar effect of graphene nano-sheets (GNSs) and CNTs on the single and multiple dynamic impact response of E-glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite (GFEP). In the comparisons, raw GFEP ...
Tension field inclination angle in steel plate shear walls with beam- connected web plates
(National Technical University of Athens, 2019)
Steel plate shear walls (SPSWs) are an efficient lateral force-resisting system with thin infill plates, main elements resisting the lateral force, connected to beams and columns on all four edges. Upon lateral loading, ...
Numerical assessment of the factors controlling the acoustic response of wind turbine blades
(Canadian Acoustical Association, 2019)
The blades of wind turbine are the most critical parts of the wind turbine system, which contribute to noise generated by wind turbine due to excitation from air streams across them. In this numerical study, the effect of ...
