Performance and emission opacity of canola and soybean biodiesel fuel in a diesel engine
Journal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2018 Biodiesel is a renewable fuel known to produce more environmentally friendly emissions compared to diesel fuel. However, at times it has been reported as exhibiting a much lower engine performance compared to standard diesel fuel.

Record‐Wise Disaggregated Seismic Fragilities for Interconnected Systems
Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Seismic risk assessment studies typically rely on fragility functions/curves to characterize the susceptibility of an asset or a class of assets to damage. These curves are essentially a summarization of responses evaluated on the basis of ground motions with record characteristics and intensities that may or may not be tied to a specific site

A SAW Wireless Passive Sensing System for Rotating Metal Parts
SensorsPassive wireless surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors are very useful for on-site monitoring of the working status of machines in complex environments, such as high-temperature rotating objects. For rotating parts, it is difficult to realize real-time and

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent tsunamigenic earthquakes in Japan have highlighted the emerging fire hazard triggered by tsunami inundation and its impact on tsunami vertical evacuation (TVE) structures. This new type of fire following earthquake, referred to as “tsunami fires,” may be a potential universal hazard that tsunami‐prone countries face; however, it has not

The digital simulation of a turbo-charged diesel engine [PDF]
, 1969 A mathematical simulation of a six cylinder four stroke water cooled diesel engine is described and then used to study the changes in performance caused by variations of engine paramters and operating conditions.
