RISModeling of Light Driven Bending Vibration of a Liquid Crystal Elastomer Beam
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we study lightdriven bending vibration of a liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) beam. Inhomogeneous and timedependent number fraction of photochromic liquid crystal molecules in cis state in an LCE beam is ...
Self-Oscillation of a Liquid Crystal Elastomer String-Mass System Under Constant Gradient Temperature
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent experiments have found that a fiber-mass system can self-oscillate along the vertical direction under a non-uniform temperature field, which necessitates significant vertical space. To address the challenge in ...
Statistical Mechanics Transport Model of Magnetic Drug Targeting in Permeable Microvessel
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A transport model of magnetic drug carrier particles (MDCPs) in permeable microvessel based on statistical mechanics has been developed to investigate capture efficiency (CE) of MDCPs at the tumor position. CassonNewton ...
Semikinetic Model for Acid Dew Point Prediction in an Engine Cylinder
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, a simplified kinetic model of the SO3 generation reaction is proposed with a test diesel engine, and the semikinetic model was further developed and applied to predict the acid dew point (ADP) temperature. ...
Modeling the Dynamic Response of a Light-Driven Liquid Crystal Elastomer Fiber/Baffle/Spring-Coupled System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A self-oscillating system can harness energy from the external environment to sustain its continuous motion, making it highly suitable for applications in soft robotics, military industry, energy, and other fields. This ...
Remodeling of the Mandibular Bone Induced by Overdentures Supported by Different Numbers of Implants
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this study was to investigate the process of mandibular bone remodeling induced by implantsupported overdentures. computed tomography (CT) images were collected from edentulous patients to reconstruct the ...
Why Does a Colder (Warmer) Winter Tend to Be Followed by a Warmer (Cooler) Summer over Northeast Eurasia?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study reveals a pronounced out-of-phase relationship between surface air temperature (SAT) anomalies over northeast Eurasia in boreal winter and the following summer during 1980–2017. A colder (warmer) winter over ...
Voltage-Induced Wrinkling in a Constrained Annular Dielectric Elastomer Film
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wrinkles can be often observed in dielectric elastomer (DE) films when they are subjected to electrical voltage and mechanical forces. In the applications of DEs, wrinkle formation is often regarded as an indication of ...
Stress Analysis of a Long-Span Steel-Truss Suspension Bridge under Combined Action of Random Traffic and Wind Loads
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents an efficient approach for dynamic stress analysis of a long-span bridge under the combined action of stochastic traffic and wind loads based on the stress influence function, which converts the stress ...
Lateral Performance of Traditional Heavy Timber Frames with Mortise-Tenon Joints Retrofitted Using Self-Tapping Screws
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the test results of three 1/2-scaled Chinese traditional mortise-tenon jointed beam-column frames, initially loaded to damage and retrofitted by use of self-tapping screws and retested under a constant ...
