Numerical Analysis of the Kinematic Dexterity of Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A general approach to numerical analysis of the kinematic dexterity of mechanisms is presented. Dextrous workspace problems are first defined and illustrated with examples. Composite workspaces ...
Numerical Analysis of the Kinematic Working Capability of Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A broadly applicable approach for numerical analysis of the kinematic working capability of mechanisms is presented. Composite workspaces are introduced to represent position and orientation ...
Multiparameter Sensitivity Analysis of Flexural–Tensile Property of Basalt Fiber–Reinforced Asphalt Mixture
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To evaluate the sensitivity of basalt fiber content, length-diameter ratio, and modulus to the flexural–tensile properties of fiber-reinforced asphalt mixture, the spatial random distribution of basalt fibers was realized ...
Spherical Penetration Grouting Model for Bingham Fluids Considering Gravity and Time-Varying Slurry Viscosity
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: As an effective reinforcement technology for seepage prevention, penetration grouting has been widely used in geotechnical and underground engineering. Because grouting is a hidden project, the extent of slurry spread is ...
Preparation and Characterization of Pt/Superfine Mesocarbon Microbead Powers Electrocatalysts
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Superfine mesocarbon microbead powders (SFMCMBs) as the new supports for platinum electrocatalysts were first investigated. The Pt∕SFMCMB electrocatalysts were prepared by an impregnation-reduction ...
Vulnerability Analysis of Metro Network Incorporating Flow Impact and Capacity Constraint after a Disaster
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a modified topological vulnerability analysis for the metro network. The flow impacts and the capacity constraint are taken into account in this work. A node-based congestion is considered in the travel ...
Experimental and Analytical Study of Fully Prefabricated Damage-Tolerant Beam to Column Connection for Earthquake-Resilient Frame
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A fully prefabricated damage-tolerant beam-to-column connection is proposed as an approach toward an earthquake-resilient steel frame. By introducing a composite steel–ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC) joint and friction ...
Knowledge Graph Improved Dynamic Risk Analysis Method for Behavior-Based Safety Management on a Construction Site
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Construction sites are considered high-risk working environments. Safety risk analysis of construction sites is one of the important aspects of construction safety management. However, existing construction safety risk ...
Study on the Load Transfer of Transverse Cracks of Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavements
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The current standards and specifications of China for cement concrete pavements do not take into account the load transfer of transverse cracks in the reinforcement design of continuously reinforced concrete pavements ...
A UAV–RTK Lidar System for Wave and Tide Measurements in Coastal Zones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA lightweight and low-cost unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) system for coastal wave and tide measurements is developed. This system is based on an assembly of a multirotor UAV, a robotic lidar, an altitude and heading ...
