RISAxial Behavior of Columns with Glass Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composite Shells and Syntactic Foam Core
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Syntactic foams (hollow glass macrospheres bonded with a polymer matrix) encased in glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) composite shells have the potential to enhance structural performance and energy absorption. To ...
Design, Modeling, and Control of a Compact and Reconfigurable Variable Stiffness Actuator Using Disc Spring
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes a compact and reconfigurable variable stiffness actuator (VSA) using disc spring which is named as SDS-VSA (symmetrical disc spring variable stiffness actuator). To enhance the actuator’s torque density, ...
