RIS10 Influential Women in Engineering
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: There are many influential women—educators, innovators, leaders—who are not only breaking the stereotype but are also role models and mentors for the next generation of female engineers. This article spotlights 10 women ...
Printing for Protection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: After seeing a number of projects trying to help frontline workers, Josef Průša decided to produce face shields with both 3D printed and laser-cut plastic components.
Making the Split Decision
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mid-careers engineers often reach a crossroad, needing to decide between continuing down the technical career pathway and pursuing a master’s in business administration, or MBA, and becoming a manager. What the path they ...
The Return of Manned Missions
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The United States space program has been without a launch vehicle for human spaceflight since 2011. That was when the space shuttle Atlantis returned on its final flight. Since then, NASA has relied on the Russian Soyuz ...
Influence of Buckling Restrained Reinforcement on Behavior of Columns
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study proposes an alternative reinforcement material system, known as buckling restrained reinforcement (BRR), to improve the behavior of concrete columns loaded with earthquake-type loading in moderate seismic ...
Parameter Identification for Electrochemical Models of Lithium-Ion Batteries Using Sensitivity Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Predicting the chemical and physical processes occurring in Lithium-ion cells with high-fidelity electrochemical models is today a critical requirement to accelerate the design and optimization of battery packs for automotive ...
Performance of Concrete Column Using Welded Wire Mesh as Lateral Ties Subjected to Lateral Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The present study recommends a confining reinforcement mechanism, welded wire mesh (WWM), to enhance the performance of columns during seismic loading. Experimental studies were done on concrete columns confined by WWM and ...
Robotic Arm for Automated Assembly of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Stacks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We present an innovative, inexpensive endeffector, the robot workcell, and the fuel cell components used to demonstrate the automated assembly process of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell stack. The endeffector is capable ...
Multiresponse Parameter Estimation for Finite-Element Model Updating Using Nondestructive Test Data
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Structural health monitoring using field measurements has developed into a major research area, responding to an increasing demand for evaluating the integrity of civil engineering structures. Model updating through parameter ...
