RISInternal Model Control for Dynamic Systems With Preceded Backlash
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A discrete-time internal model control approach for nonsmooth nonlinear systems described by a pseudo-Hammerstein model with backlash is presented. In this method, the controlled system is described ...
Technical Innovations of the Aizhai Bridge in China
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The recently completed Aizhai Bridge in the west of Hunan Province in China is a long-span suspension bridge across a deep canyon. In view of the particular problems posed by the surrounding landscape and geologic conditions, ...
Tensile–Bending–Corrosion Fatigue Analysis of the Parallel Steel Wire Cable in Suspension Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Corrosion fatigue is a critical concern in the performance and safety of parallel steel wire cables used in various engineering structures, particularly in bridge applications. This study investigated the complex interaction ...
Analysis of the Failure of High-Strength Steel Wires in Suspension Bridge Hangers under the Coupling Effect of Corrosion Fatigue after Prefatigue Load
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Corrosion fatigue coupling failure of high-strength steel wires in suspension bridge hangers is a common failure mode. However, corrosion and fatigue do not occur simultaneously due to the presence of protective sheaths. ...

Seismic Repair of Reinforced Concrete Bridge Columns: Review of Research Findings
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Repair has become a viable option for restoring the use of earthquake-damaged RC elements, even those that have been severely damaged. To select and design an appropriate repair system for damaged RC bridge columns, it is ...
Experimental Study on Flow-Induced Full-Field Vibration of a Flexible Splitter Plate Behind a Cylinder Using Stereo-Digital Image Correlation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The flow-induced vibration of a flexible splitter plate behind a circular cylinder is investigated experimentally in this study. Unlike previous studies that mainly devoted to flow dynamics, the full-field three-dimensional ...
Theoretical and Experimental Studies of the Antislip Capacity between Cable and Saddle Equipped with Horizontal Friction Plates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: For multispan suspension bridges, the slip between the main cable and middle saddle is a critical problem. It is therefore essential to find efficient antislip schemes and develop the corresponding evaluation method. In ...
Design and Experimental Validation of Two Cam-Based Force Regulation Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the design and experimental validation of two force regulation mechanisms (FRMs) containing a translational cam and a rotational cam, respectively. With the friction-considered profile identification ...
Chemistry Analysis for Atmospheric Water Utilization as Drinking Water
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: With the aim of developing condensed atmospheric water resources as drinking water, atmospheric water samples were collected in six different areas of Shenzhen, China: industrial area, commercial area, road, residential ...
