Experimental Research on Properties of Fresh and Hardened Rubberized Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this study, the use of tire-rubber particles as a replacement for coarse aggregate in concrete is investigated. Rubber has replaced coarse aggregate at content levels of 25, 50, 75, and 100% in concrete by volume. Also, ...
New Type of Super-Lightweight Magnesium Phosphate Cement Foamed Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most previous investigations on foam concrete have been confined to portland cement and the density range of
Experimental Investigation Concrete Using Magnesium Phosphate Cement, Fly Ash, and Rape Stalk
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an investigation on a new material composed of magnesium phosphate cement (MPC), fly ash, and rape stalk. The main goal is to evaluate the viability of using this new material as an insulation material ...
Experimental Study of Local Scour around a Vertical Cylinder under Wave-Only and Combined Wave-Current Conditions in a Large-Scale Flume
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of physical experiments under wave-only and combined wave-current conditions are conducted in a large-scale wave flume. It is found that waves with strong nonlinearity may lead to downstream movement of the maximum ...
Experimental Investigation Concrete Using Magnesium Phosphate Cement, Fly Ash, and Rape Stalk
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an investigation on a new material composed of magnesium phosphate cement (MPC), fly ash, and rape stalk. The main goal is to evaluate the viability of using this new material as an insulation material ...
A Portable Passive Ankle-Foot Orthosis for Walking Propulsion and Drop-Foot Prevention
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Individuals with a drop-foot generally have issues of foot-slap and toe-drag, and ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) have been developed for them to address the drop-foot gait. However, the currently available active AFOs usually ...
Experimental Research on Properties of High-Strength Foamed Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The aim of this study is to develop structural foamed concretes by using silica fume, fly ash, and polypropylene fiber. The study presents the use of fly ash for fully replacing sand to produce foamed concrete. Fine silica ...
Research on Electromagnetic Interference Protection of Nuclear Power Unit Equipment Under the Application of New Wireless Technology in Smart Nuclear Power
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Intelligence is the trend of industrial development in today’s world, which will inevitably affect the nuclear power field, thus promoting nuclear power industry from digital to intelligent forward. 5G and Wi-Fi6, as a new ...
Design, Modeling, and Evaluation of a Hybrid Driven Knee-Ankle Orthosis With Shape Memory Alloy Actuators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper demonstrates the mechanical design, analysis, and evaluation of a knee-ankle orthosis (KAO) for lower limb rehabilitation, including shape memory alloy (SMA) actuators and DC brushless motor actuators. First, ...
Implementation of Robotic Ankle–Foot Orthosis With an Impedance-Based Assist-as-Needed Control Strategy
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a robotic ankle–foot orthosis (AFO) is developed for individuals with a paretic ankle, and an impedance-based assist-as-needed controller is designed for the robotic AFO to provide adaptive assistance. First, ...
