Mechanical Property Evaluation of Composites Based on n+1 Phase Model and Mori–Tanaka Theory
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A new micromechanical model is developed for the prediction of the elastic properties of composite materials with embedded spherical multicoated inhomogeneities of various sizes and types. The model is based on the n+1 ...
A Motion Synthesis Approach to Solving Alt-Burmester Problem by Exploiting Fourier Descriptor Relationship Between Path and Orientation Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a generalized framework to solve m-pose, n-path-points mixed synthesis problems, known as the Alt-Burmester problems, using a task-driven motion synthesis approach. We aim to unify the path and motion ...
An Optimal Parametrization Scheme for Path Generation Using Fourier Descriptors for Four-Bar Mechanism Synthesis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Fourier descriptor (FD)-based path synthesis algorithms for generation of planar four-bar mechanisms require assigning time parameter values to the given points along the path. An improper selection of time parameters leads ...
Using a Point-Line-Plane Representation for Unified Simulation of Planar and Spherical Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a geometric constraints driven approach to unified kinematic simulation of n-bar planar and spherical linkage mechanisms consisting of both revolute and prismatic joints. Generalized constraint equations ...
