Abstract: This paper investigates a frequencytunable nonlinear electromagnetic energy harvester. The electromagnetic harvester mainly consists of permanent magnets supported on the base to provide a magnetic field, and electrical ...
Phase Space Feature Based on Independent Component Analysis for Machine Health Diagnosis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes a new feature extraction method based on Independent Component Analysis (ICA) and reconstructed phase space. The ICA-based phase space feature unifies the system dynamics ...
The Mechanics of Spiral Springs and Its Application in Timekeeping
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Spiral spring is widely used in mechanisms, such as mechanical watch movements and clocks where the spiral spring is used for timekeeping. According to literature, there are only a few studies on spiral springs. In this ...
Cordon Pricing Scheme Based on Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram and Distance
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To alleviate traffic congestion in key areas, such as city centers, this study proposes an optimal pricing strategy that is based on the distance that users travel in a given cordon. The proposed strategy is derived from ...
Deformation and Springback Behavior of Sheet Metal With Convex-Shaped Surfaces in Heat-Assisted Incremental Bending Process Based on Minimum Energy Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Three-dimensional sheet metal forming is one of the biggest challenges in the shipbuilding industry. The forming quality of the traditionally applied line heating method depends entirely on the skills of the technicians. ...
