On the Use of Diagonal Modes in the Elastic Identification of Thin Plates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper relates a further development of an earlier work by the first author and others, in which they presented a method of deriving the elastic constants of composite materials from ...
Dual Solution and Choked Flow Treatment in a Streamline Curvature Throughflow Solver
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In most turbomachinery design systems, streamline curvature based throughflow calculations make the backbone of aero design process. The fast, reliable, and easy to understand solution is especially useful in performing ...
Direct Adaptive Fuzzy Moving Sliding Mode Proportional Integral Tracking Control of a Three Dimensional Overhead Crane
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a novel direct adaptive fuzzy moving sliding mode proportional integral (PI) tracking control of a threedimensional (3D) overhead crane which is modeled by five highly nonlinear secondorder ordinary differential ...
Robust Pose Estimation With an Outlier Diagnosis Based on a Relaxation of Rigid Body Constraints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, we propose a novel outlier diagnosis method for robust pose estimation of rigid body motions from outlier contaminated 3D point measurements. Due to incorrect correspondences in a cluttered measuring ...
Optimization of a Mobile Platform for a Wheeled Manipulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A method for optimizing a mobile platform to form a wheeled manipulator is presented. For a given manipulator, this mobile platform is optimized to have maximum tip-over stability against the reaction forces and moments ...
Turbulent Flame Speed as an Indicator for Flashback Propensity of Hydrogen Rich Fuel Gases
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The turbulent flame speed (ST) is proposed to be an indicator of the flashback propensity for hydrogenrich fuel gases at gas turbine relevant conditions. Flashback is an inevitable issue to be concerned about when introducing ...
Structures and Northward Propagation of the Quasi-Biweekly Oscillation in the Western North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the northward-propagating quasi-biweekly oscillation (QBWO) in the western North Pacific by examining the composite meridional structures. Using newly released reanalysis and remote sensing data, ...
On the Planarization Mechanism and Pad Aging Effects of Soft Pad Polishing: A Perspective From the Micro-Mechanical Properties of Soft Pads
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The local viscoelastic properties of soft polishing pads with different usage durations are measured by a micro-scale mechanical analysis testing platform. The testing reveals stimulus-adaptive local viscoelasticity of ...
Drained Deformation Behavior of Anisotropic Sands during Cyclic Rotation of Principal Stress Axes
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A series of drained tests for sands with inherent fabric anisotropy were conducted with an automatic hollow cylinder apparatus. The samples were subjected to cyclic rotation of principal stress axes while the magnitudes ...
The Solution of Transient Radiative Transfer With Collimated Incident Serial Pulse in a Plane-Parallel Medium by the DRESOR Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A time-dependent distribution of ratios of energy scattered by the medium or reflected by the boundary surfaces (DRESOR) method was proposed to solve the transient radiative transfer in a ...
