RISLearning Scalable Decentralized Controllers for Heterogeneous Robot Swarms With Graph Neural Networks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Distributed multi-agent systems are becoming increasingly crucial for diverse applications in robotics because of their capacity for scalability, efficiency, robustness, resilience, and the ability to accomplish complex ...
Response of Systems and Components in a Base-Isolated Nuclear Power Plant Building Impacted by a Large Commercial Aircraft
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Earthquake shaking must be addressed in the design of a nuclear power plant (NPP). The impact of a large commercial airliner on a nuclear power plant building is considered a beyond-design-basis event but assessment is ...
Partial Differential Equation-Based Trajectory Planning for Multiple Unmanned Air Vehicles in Dynamic and Uncertain Environments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes a physics-inspired method for unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) trajectory planning in three dimensions using partial differential equations (PDEs) for application in dynamic hostile environments. The ...
Improvement in Active Cell Proliferation Area at Higher Permeability With Novel TPMS Lattice Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The utilization of lattice-based scaffolds emerging as an advance technique over conventional bio-implants in Bone Tissue Engineering. In this study, totally six lattice structures are considered for permeability and wall ...
A Noise Based Distributed Optimization Method for Multirobot Task Allocation With Multimodal Utility
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Distributed optimization methods have been used extensively in multirobot task allocation (MRTA) problems. In distributed optimization domain, most of the algorithms are developed for solving convex optimization problems. ...
A Study of Transverse Buckling Effect on the Characteristics of Nuclides Burnup Wave in a Fast Neutron Multiplying Media
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A study of transverse buckling effect on the characteristics of nuclides burnup wave in multiplying media (cylindrical geometry) has been carried out. The burnup wave is characterized in terms of velocity of propagation, ...
Instabilities and Pattern Formation in Epidemic Spread Induced by Nonlinear Saturation Effects and Ornstein–Uhlenbeck Noise1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: We analytically study the emergence of instabilities and the consequent steady-state pattern formation in a stochastic partial differential equation (PDE) based, compartmental model of spatiotemporal epidemic spread. The ...
Detection of Cracks in Turbomachinery Blades by Online Monitoring
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The presence of a crack in a blade can change the natural frequencies of that blade. It has long been a goal to detect blade cracks by assessing the change in a measured vibration frequency of the blade over time. It has ...
