Analysis for Feasibility of the Method for Bars Driving the Ball Tensegrity Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In tensegrity robots, the ball tensegrity robot attracts the most attention. The method of driving the ball tensegrity robot is analyzed here. At first, the ball tensegrity structure is described, and its mathematical model ...
Effects of Atmospheric Surface Layer Stability on Turbulent Fluxes of Heat and Water Vapor across the Water–Atmosphere Interface
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: idely used numerical models to estimate turbulent exchange of latent heat flux (LE) and sensible heat flux H across the water?atmosphere interface are based on the bulk transfer relations linked indirectly to atmospheric ...
Inferring the Size Distribution of 3D Particle Clusters in Metal Matrix Nanocomposites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Metal matrix nanocomposites (MMNCs) are produced by dispersing reinforcing nanoparticles into metal matrix. It is a type of emerging materials with high strength and light weight and draws significant attentions in recent ...
Environmental Controls on the Surface Energy Budget over a Large Southern Inland Water in the United States: An Analysis of One-Year Eddy Covariance Flux Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he authors analyzed the surface energy fluxes that were measured by an eddy covariance system over the Ross Barnett Reservoir in Mississippi for a 1-yr period in 2008. On a monthly basis over the course of the year, positive ...
Self-Equilibrium Analysis and Minimal Mass Design of Tensegrity Prism Units
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper provides a specific analysis strategy for tensegrity prism units with different complexities and connectivity. Through the nodal coordinate matrix and connectivity matrix, we can establish the equilibrium equation ...
