RISOptimal Design of Linear and Nonlinear Vibration Absorbers for Damped Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Nonlinear programming techniques are applied to obtain optimal tuning and damping parameters for dynamic absorbers. The optimization has been carried out for damped as well as undamped primary ...
Performance Improvement of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Through the Electrode Structure Change
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new hydrophobic micropillared structure for the electrode of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is proposed in this study. Its performance has a 40% increase over the conventional ...
The Development of a Heterogeneous Composite Bipolar Plate of a Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new high performance, low cost heterogeneous composite bipolar plate has been developed. Unlike the well publicized carbon composite bipolar plate, in which graphite powder and plastics are ...
A Novel Design of a Cylindrical Portable Direct Methanol Fuel Cell
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Novel designs of a cylindrical and a flat portable direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) have been proposed in this research. Experimental cells have also been fabricated. Their maximum power output ...
