Three-Dimensional Numerical Analysis of Flow-Induced Vibration in Turbomachinery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Thumb Configuration and Performance Evaluation for Dexterous Robotic Hand Design
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The force and/or motion transmissibility and the analyticity of inverse kinematics for a thumb mechanism depend on thumb configuration. This paper presents a general framework for the thumb configuration and performance ...
A Unified Energy Feature of Vortex Rings for Identifying the Pinch-Off Mechanism
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Owing to the limiting effect of energy, vortex rings cannot grow indefinitely and thus pinch off. In this paper, experiments on the vortex rings generated using a piston-cylinder apparatus are conducted so as to investigate ...
A Special Hybrid Projective Synchronization in Symmetric Chaotic System With Unknown Parameter
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel synchronization scheme called special hybrid projective synchronization (SHPS), in which different state variables can synchronize up to same positive or negative scaling factors, is proposed in this paper. For all ...
Research of Highway Transportation Path Planning Based on a Fast Traveler Demand Clustering Algorithm
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To realize real–time and reliable transportation path planning for improving the efficiency of a traveler in a highway transportation network, this paper presents a fast traveler demand clustering algorithm based on simulated ...
Supply-Driven Dynamic Inoperability Input-Output Price Model for Interdependent Infrastructure Systems
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A supply driven dynamic input-output inoperability model (SDIIM), which extends the classical dynamic inoperability input-output model (DIIM), is described in this paper. The classical DIIM was developed to help understand ...
Roles of Synoptic to Quasi-Biweekly Disturbances in Generating the Summer 2003 Heavy Rainfall in East China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uring the mei-yu season of the summer of 2003, the Yangtze and Huai River basin (YHRB) encountered anomalously heavy rainfall, and the northern YHRB (nYHRB) suffered a severe flood because of five continuous extreme rainfall ...
Design and Autonomous Obstacle-Crossing Strategy of a Reconfigurable Closed-Chain Legged Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A closed-chain legged robot with a reconfigurable trunk is designed, and its continuous and collision-free obstacle-crossing strategy is presented to enhance terrain adaptability and intelligence, ultimately enabling ...
Experiment of Tension-compression Fatigue and Damage for Asphalt Mixtures
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A tension-compression beam fatigue test under continuous sine wave alternating loading for AC-13 was conducted to understand fatigue damage characteristics of an actual asphalt pavement structure under tension and compression ...
A Modeling Study of a Low-Level Jet along the Yun-Gui Plateau in South China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, the three-dimensional structures and diurnal evolution of a typical low-level jet (LLJ) with a maximum speed of 24 m s?1 occurring in the 850?800-hPa layer are examined using both large-scale analysis and a ...
