RISAdaptive Control With Internal Model for High Performance Precision Motion Control and Its Application to a Fast Acting Piezoelectric Actuator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes an adaptive control scheme that minimizes the leastmeansquare (LMS) value of the plant output while meeting the constraints of canceling deterministic exogenous signals generated by a priori dynamics. ...
Damage Assessment of Seismically Excited Buildings Through Incomplete Measurements
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measuring responses at all degrees of freedom (DOF) of a real structure is impossible and impractical when few sensors are available. This study presents a damageassessment technique for seismically excited buildings using ...
A Computational Modeling Approach for Studying Tissue–Cutter Interaction in Breast Biopsy Procedure1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Design Optimization of Nonrotational and Rotational Needle Insertion for Minimal Cutting Forces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The needle insertion is widely used in many medical procedures, particularly in the needle biopsy. The cutting force occurred during the insertion process has a significant effect on the cutting outcome. This paper focuses ...
Exact H2 Optimal Tuning and Experimental Verification of Energy Harvesting Series Electromagnetic Tuned Mass Dampers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Energyharvesting series electromagnetictuned mass dampers (EMTMDs) have been recently proposed for dualfunctional energy harvesting and robust vibration control by integrating the tuned mass damper (TMD) and electromagnetic ...

Optimizing Design With Extensive Simulation Data: A Case Study of Designing a Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy Tool
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Design by Dragging (DBD) [1] is a virtual design tool, which displays three-dimensional (3D) visualizations of many simulation results obtained by sampling a large design space and ties this visual display together with a ...
Static Response of Circular Cavities With a NonRadial Crack Subject to Antiplane Stress
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tunnels, pipelines, and other subterranean circular cavities are common components of modern infrastructure. In addition, seismic activities are common in many areas with pipelines, which may put these structures under ...
