RISNumerical Local Time Stepping Solutions for Transient Statistical Energy Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Subsystem energies evolve in transient statistical energy analysis (TSEA) according to a linear system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), which is usually numerically solved by means of the forward Euler finite ...
A Flexible Multibody Model of a Safety Robot Arm for Experimental Validation and Analysis of Design Parameters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Service robots must comply with very demanding safety requirements in order to guarantee that a human can be assisted without any risk of injury. This paper presents a detailed multibody model of the interaction between a ...
Measurement Systems for Cell Adhesive Forces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Cell adhesion to the extracellular matrix (ECM) involves integrin receptor–ligand binding and clustering to form focal adhesion (FA) complexes, which mechanically link the cell’s cytoskeleton to the ECM and regulate ...
Validation Process of Pose Accuracy Estimation in Parallel Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This research ponders the origin of errors due to manufacturing and assembling processes that affect pose accuracy of any given robot. The estimation of these errors allows designers to define the influence of individual ...
Polarization and Electrocatalyst Selection for Polybenzimidazole Direct Methanol Fuel Cells
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
