Design and PIV Measurements on a Wire-Wrapped 61-Rod Hexagonal Fuel Assembly Experimental Facility (2017-05-04)The superior uranium utilization efficiency of fast spectrum reactors relative to thermal spectrum reactors was recognized shortly after commercial reactor development started. The sodium fast reactor design, a type of ...

(2011-10-01)A dispersion model for a wide range of depthwise vertical shear is derived by using perturbation analysis and power (m) law velocity profile. For m = 1, the velocity profile provides linear shear, whereas m > 1 provides ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)It has been demonstrated that transverse reinforcement not only provides the strength and stiffness for reinforced concrete (RC) members through direct resistance to external force demands, but also helps confine the inner ...

(2010-10-12)A compatibility-based strut-and-tie model C-STM is proposed for analyzing deep beams and disturbed regions with particular emphasis on reinforced concrete bridge piers. In addition to the normal strut-and-tie force equilibrium ...

First Principles Investigation of Structural, Mechanical and Thermodynamic Properties of MAX Phases (2018-07-26)MAX phases are layered carbides or nitrides with general formula of Mvn+1AXvn. In this work we present a first principles investigation of structural, mechanical, and thermodynamic properties of MAX phases. Up to date ...

Permeability characterization of shear zones in the Hickory sandstone member, Riley Formation, Texas (Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)Reservoir compartments, typical targets for new infill locations, are commonly created by faults that may reduce or enhanced permeabilities. Faults often contain narrow zones of intense shear comprised of geometrically ...
