Fire Protection Performance of Nanocoating on a LPG Tank under Fire Based on the Wavelet Finite-Element Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To study the fire protection effect of the nanocoating on the liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) tank under fire, the wavelet finite-element method is applied in analyzing the thermal stress, temperature, and pressures distribution ...
Thermal Stress Analysis of Ceramic-Coated Diesel Engine Pistons Based on the Wavelet Finite-Element Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To analyze the thermal stress distribution of ceramic-coated pistons, the wavelet finite-element was constructed by using the Daubechies wavelet scale function as the interpolating function. The thermal stress distributions ...
Distributed Finite-Time Attitude Tracking Control for Multiple Rigid Spacecrafts with Full-State Constraints
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper studies the distributed attitude tracking control problem for rigid spacecraft under a directed graph with external disturbances and full-state constraints. First, because only a subset of the follower spacecraft ...
Influence of Diffuser Jet Characteristics on Indoor Air Distribution under Actual Connecting Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: When air distribution in a ventilated room is designed, the outflow velocity from the air supply diffuser is usually treated as uniform. This is true when the duct connections are such that the air enters the diffuser as ...
Development of the Reconfigurable Data Acquisition Vehicle for Bio-Energy Crop Sensing and Management
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this article, the development of the Reconfigurable Data Acquisition Vehicle (R-DAV) that has a high performance as a wheeled mobile robot is presented. The R-DAV is designed to monitor and ...
Dynamic Response of Concrete Frames Including Plain Ductile Cementitious Composites
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ultrahigh ductile cementitious composites (UHDCC) developed by the authors has the tensile strain capacity up to 10%. Considering UHDCC has deformability close to steel used for the reinforcement of the concrete, the authors ...
Development of Lower Limb Exoskeleton for Walking Assistance Using Energy Recycled From Human Knee Joint
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper illustrates the design and testing of a lower limb exoskeleton for walking assistance. First, the biomechanics of the human knee and ankle joints during walking and the strategy of energy recycling and releasing ...

Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Ultrahigh ductile cementitious composites (UHDCC) developed by the authors has the tensile strain capacity up to 10%. Considering UHDCC has deformability close to steel used for the reinforcement of the concrete, the authors ...
Fast Online Trajectory Generation for Time Adjustable Flight Consensus
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: In this paper, a fast online guidance law generation method is proposed to resolve the flight time control guidance design problem for time adjustable flight consensus via an analytical polynomial shaping approach. The ...
