RISIdentifiability of Lagrangian Systems With Application to Robot Manipulators
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The deterministic parameter identifiability of mechanical linear and nonlinear dynamical systems is considered via linear parameterization of system Lagrangians and necessary and sufficient conditions ...
Online Inspection for Glass Fiber Forming
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Glass fiber forming is a complicated process in which many factors could affect the quality of fibers. The forming machine has many fiber-forming tubes that are close to each other and arranged ...
Experimental and Modeling Study on Magnetorheological Elastomers with Different Matrices
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In this paper the physical and dynamic mechanical property tests of magnetorheological elastomers (MREs) are reported. Two kinds of MREs with different matrices, about 12 samples in total, are fabricated by mixing carbonyl ...
Experimentally Verified Hybrid Spatial Structure Micromechanical Model for MR Fluid Prepared by the Drying-Free Process
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The drying-free preparation of coated magnetic particles has been proven to significantly improve the comprehensive performance and preparation efficiency of magnetorheological (MR) fluid. Due to the magnetic separation ...
Memoryless Adaptive Controller Design for Uncertain Polynomial Systems With Multiple Time Delays
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The stabilization problem is investigated for a class of uncertain systems with multiple time-varying delays. The considered system includes the uncertain nonlinear time delay functions, whose ...
Understanding the Effect of BIM Capability Imbalance on Opportunistic Behavior: The Case of the Chinese Construction Market
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Although building information modeling (BIM) is believed to have the potential to curb opportunistic behavior, opportunism is observed in some BIM-enabled projects surprisingly often. One possible reason is that, in current ...
Characteristics of Water-Foamed Asphalt Mixture under Multiple Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Laboratory Evaluation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A major concern with the application of water-foamed asphalt mixtures is the possible performance degradation caused by the presence of inclusion water during production. Inclusion water left in the asphalt mixture after ...
Sliding Mode Lateral Guidance and Control of Finless Airship
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The path following a finless airship is presented in this paper using a nonunified sliding mode-based lateral guidance and control framework. The outer-guidance loop relies on the airship’s kinematics, and the designed ...
Thermodynamic Behaviors of a Viscoelastic Plate for Vibration Control with Nonlocal Effect and Temperature-Dependent Properties when Subjected to a Moving Heat Source
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Viscoelastic materials are used widely for seismic mitigation and vibration suppression in civil engineering, and have obvious advantages in energy dissipation. Viscoelastic materials and devices are often used in a ...
Experimental Investigation and Multiscale Modeling of VE Damper Considering Chain Network and Ambient Temperature Influence
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Viscoelastic (VE) dampers are one of the most promising techniques for reducing vibration in engineering structures caused by earthquakes and wind. This work aims to develop a kind of high-dissipation VE damper for civil ...
