Metamodel-Driven Design Optimization Using Integrative Graphical Design Interfaces: Results From a Job-Shop Manufacturing Simulation Experiment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Today, engineers are relying more on modern computer tools and techniques to visualize complex data sets; however, few studies have examined the effect of fast, graphical design interfaces on ...
Discussion: “Optimum Design of Vibration Absorbers for Structurally Damped Timoshenko Beams” (Esmailzadeh, E., and Jalili, N., 1998, ASME J. Vib. Acoust., 120, pp. 833–841)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In a recent paper by E. Esmailzadeh and N. Jalili the design of optimal vibration absorbers for Timoshenko beams was discussed. While the paper is interesting, the solution seems to be ...
Continuous Monitoring of Binary Gas Mixture Concentration With Application to Turbine Blade Cooling Experiments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Turbine blade cooling experiments often use mixtures of air and a heavy gas (CO2, SF6) to simulate coolant/mainstream density ratios. If the mixing of the mainstream with the coolant ejected ...
Effects of Frictional Loss on Bicycle Chain Drive Efficiency
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Chain drive efficiency has been studied to understand energy loss mechanisms in bicycle drive trains, primarily for derailleur-type systems. An analytical study of frictional energy loss mechanisms ...
