H.R. Lissner Award Lecture - Bone and Bones
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A brief review is given of some of the author’s biomechanical research carried out during the past 30 yr. Part of this research was done in collaboration with the late Professor Herbert R. ...
Caterpillar’s 3600 PEEC Locomotive Governor (Programmable Electronic Engine Control)
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Caterpillar Inc. recently introduced the 3600 Series medium speed, 280 kW/cylinder diesel engine to its product line. Offered in 6 and 8 cylinder inline and 12 and 16 cylinder vee configurations, ...
Progressive Cracking of a Multilayer System Upon Thermal Cycling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article considers progressive cracking upon thermal cycling of a thin multilayer on a thick substrate. The prototypical system comprises a thin elastic layer of a dielectric material above ...
Gas-Particle Flow Within a High Temperature Solar Cavity Receiver Including Radiation Heat Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A study has been made of the flow of air and particles and the heat transfer inside a solar heated, open cavity containing a falling cloud of 100-1000 micron solid particles. Two-way momentum ...
The Effects of Material Properties on Heat Dissipation in High Power Electronics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The role of the substrate in determining heat dissipation in high power electronics is calculated, subject to convective cooling in the small Biot number regime. Analytical models that exploit ...
An Experimental and Numerical Study of Flow and Convective Heat Transfer in a Freely Falling Curtain of Particles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow characteristics and convective heat transfer in a freely falling curtain of spherical particles with an average diameter of 650 μm has been studied experimentally and numerically. Both ...
The Dynamic Strength of a Representative Double Layer Prismatic Core: A Combined Experimental, Numerical, and Analytical Assessment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic out-of-plane compressive testing was used to characterize the dynamic strength of stainless steel prismatic cores with representative double layer topology to be employed in sandwich panels ...
The Load Capacity of a Kagome Based High Authority Shape Morphing Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A protocol for optimizing a high authority shape morphing plate is described. The design incorporates an active Kagome back-plane capable of changing the shape of a solid face by transmitting ...
Application of a Dynamic Constitutive Law to Multilayer Metallic Sandwich Panels Subject to Impulsive Loads
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The present paper describes an investigation that implements and assesses a dynamic continuum constitutive law for all-metallic sandwich panels. It also demonstrates its application to multilayer ...
A Materials Selection Protocol for Lightweight Actively Cooled Panels
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This article provides a materials selection methodology applicable to lightweight actively cooled panels, particularly suitable for the most demanding aerospace applications. The key ingredient is ...
