Type Synthesis of Parallel Tracking Mechanism With Varied Axes by Modeling Its Finite Motions Algebraically
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Parallel tracking mechanism with varied axes has great potential in actuating antenna to track moving targets. Due to varied rotational axes, its finite motions have not been modeled algebraically. This makes its type ...
Statistical Analysis of the Quantified Relationship between Evaporation Duct and Oceanic Evaporation for Unstable Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAn analysis is conducted for the first time to statistically quantify the relationship between the evaporation duct and oceanic evaporation. Through sensitivity analysis, under unstable conditions (air?sea temperature ...
Multi-Objective Optimization of Parallel Tracking Mechanism Considering Parameter Uncertainty
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Multi-objective optimization of a typical parallel tracking mechanism considering parameter uncertainty is carried out in this paper. Both dimensional and sectional parameters are regarded as design variables. Workspace, ...
Study on Asphalt-Cement Materials for Seismic Isolation Layer of Shield Tunnels
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Shield tunnels have been extensively used in many fields and are exposed to the threat of earthquakes. Seismic isolation is an effective anti-seismic method to protect tunnels from earthquake damage. This study investigates ...
Mn-Doped Biochar Derived from Sewage Sludge for Ciprofloxacin Degradation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Three different MnO2 polymorphs, α-MnO2, β-MnO2, and δ-MnO2, with K+-tuned tunnel structures were loaded on sludge-based biochar (BC). Then MnO2-loaded BCs served as the catalyst for ciprofloxacin (CIP) removal. Results ...
Topology Synthesis of a 1 Translational and 3 Rotational Parallel Manipulator With an Articulated Traveling Plate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Driven by the increasing demands of the aircraft assemblage for the poseadjustment equipment in the largescale component docking, this paper carries out the topology synthesis of a 1translational and 3rotational (1T3R) ...
Tribological Behaviors of Titanium Nitride- and Chromium-Nitride-Based Physical Vapor Deposition Coating Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study investigates the effects of the deposition process and coating composition on microstructural and tribological properties of TiN- and CrN-based coating systems. Coatings were produced ...
Axial Compressive Behavior of Square-Section Concrete Columns Transversely Reinforced with FRP Grids
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Using grid-type stirrups as transverse reinforcements in reinforced concrete (RC) columns can not only provide higher confinement of the concrete core but also lead to an improved concrete cover and better protection to ...
Removal of Carbon Tetrachloride by Enhanced Reduction in a Dual-Chamber Electrochemical Reactor
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The cathode chamber of a dual-chamber electrochemical reactor separated by DuPont proton exchange membrane, which has a higher reductive capacity than a single-chamber reactor, has a remarkable reduction effect on carbon ...
Experimental Study and Mechanism Analysis of the Dynamic Performance of Plain Concrete under Combined Compression and Shear
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Concrete is obviously affected by the loading strain rate, and concrete exists in the state of shear multiaxial stress in practical engineering. Studying the dynamic response of concrete under multiaxial shear states ...
