Mixed Skyhook and Power Driven Damper: A New Low Jerk Semi Active Suspension Control Based on Power Flow Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In practice, semiactive suspensions provide better tradeoffs between performances and costs than passive or active damping. Many different semiactive control algorithms have been developed, including skyhook (SH), ...
A Computation Efficient Framework for the Integrated Design of Structural and Control Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes a new integrated design method to simultaneously optimize the coupled structural parameters and controllers of mechanical systems by combining decentralized control techniques and Riccatibased control ...
Investigations on the Cycle Performance of a Diffusion Absorption Heat Transformer Using HCOOK as an Alternative to LiBr
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A diffusion absorption heat transformer (AHT) is very potential to improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce carbon emission, because it can be totally driven by waste heat without electricity consumption. On the ...
Continuous Fracture Mediated Tension Behaviors of Silicone–Carbon Nanotube Laminated Structure
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, we have studied the uniaxial tension behaviors of the silicone–carbon nanotube (CNT) laminated structure (SCLS) with the load capacity of the CNT film comparable to that of silicone rubber, based on which a ...
Analytical Solutions to H2 and H∠Optimizations of Resonant Shunted Electromagnetic Tuned Mass Damper and Vibration Energy Harvester
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: When optimized, tuned mass dampers (TMDs) can effectively mitigate the vibration of the primary structure, because additional resonance and damping are introduced by the auxiliary massspringdamper system. Similar effect ...
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 ...
Mechanism of the Transition From In Plane Buckling to Helical Buckling for a Stiff Nanowire on an Elastomeric Substrate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the compressive buckling of a nanowire partially bonded to an elastomeric substrate is studied via finiteelement method (FEM) simulations and experiments. The buckling profile of the nanowire can be divided ...
Mechanism of Surface Wrinkle Modulation for a Stiff Film on Compliant Substrate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the surface wrinkle modulation of the film/substrate system caused by eigenstrain in the film is studied. A theoretical model is proposed which shows the change of the wrinkle amplitude is completely determined ...
Mechanism of Three-Dimensional Surface Wrinkle Manipulation on a Compliant Substrate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this work, the surface wrinkle modulation mechanism of the three-dimensional (3D) film/substrate system caused by biaxial eigenstrains in the films is studied. A theoretical model based on the energy minimization of the ...
Failure in Two-Dimensional Materials: Defect Sensitivity and Failure Criteria
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted a great deal of attention recently owing to their fascinating structural, mechanical, and electronic properties. The failure phenomena in 2D materials can be diverse and ...
