Offline Offset Refiner for Coordinated Actuated Signal Control Systems1
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents the concept and implementation of an offline offset refiner, which addresses the problem of uncertain (not fixed) starts/ends of green in the determination of offsets for coordinated actuated signal ...
A Modified Weld Structure of Layered Urea Reactor Based on Stress Analysis and Leak Detection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a modified weld structure of the layered urea reactor has been provided. In the modified structure, new circumferential weld can improve the stress status of the urea reactor. ...
Active Vibration Control of Composite Pyramidal Lattice Truss Core Sandwich Plates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The vibration characteristics of composite pyramidal truss core sandwich plates with piezoelectric actuator/sensor pairs were investigated, and the active vibration control methods of the structural system were also ...
Optimization Design and Numerical Study of Liquid-Cooling Structure for Cylindrical Lithium-Ion Battery Pack
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Thermal management is of great significance to ensure that a battery pack works at a reasonable temperature and avoids thermal runaway. In this study, three different designs of liquid cooling-based lithium-ion battery ...
Shape Optimized Heliostats Using a Tailored Stiffness Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In central receiver systems, the ideal reflective shape of a heliostat is a section of a paraboloid that adapting with the sun's angle and the mirror's location in the field. Deviation from this shape leads to optical ...
Biomineralization of Carbonate by Terrabacter Tumescens for Heavy Metal Removal and Biogrouting Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The ability of Terrabacter tumescens to precipitate carbonate minerals has been demonstrated for the first time. Biomineralization of nickel, copper, lead, cobalt, zinc, cadmium and calcium by T. tumescens and mineral ...
Forward Position Analysis of the 3-DOF Module of the TriVariant: A 5-DOF Reconfigurable Hybrid Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper deals with the forward position analysis of a 3-DOF parallel mechanism module, which forms the main body of a 5-DOF reconfigurable hybrid robot named TriVariant. The TriVariant is ...
Modified Formulation of Layer Stresses Due to Internal Pressure of a Layered Vessel With Interlayer Gaps
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the modified formulae have been provided. They can be used to calculate the stress in layers with gaps of a layered cylinder. In order to obtain the modified formulae, a ...
Study on Tribological Properties of a New Fe3Al-Based Alloy as an Alternative Material for Scraper Conveyor
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work reports on the sliding wear properties of Fe3Al-based alloy in conditions of dry sliding and quartz sand abrasion. The wear strengthening mechanism is also analyzed in detail. On this basis, the feasibility of ...
