RISOn the Stability of Chain Drive Systems Under Periodic Sprocket Oscillations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Experimental observations have shown that periodic torsional oscillations of engine camshafts induced by powertrain loads can cause significant tension variation in the timing chain and magnify ...
Dynamic Stability Analysis of High Speed Axially Moving Bands With End Curvatures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measurements of vibration on continuous bands driven by rotating wheels show that the end curvature of the spans can greatly affect the system dynamic characteristics [1,2]. Significant error ...
Determination of the Load Distribution in a Threaded Connector Having Dissimilar Materials and Varying Thread Stiffness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A modified spring model was developed to predict the load distribution in the threaded portion of a connector. Distinction was made between a compression case (nut and bolt) and a tension ...
Vibration Suppression of Mistuned Coupled-Blade-Disk Systems Using Piezoelectric Circuitry Network
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: For bladed-disk assemblies in turbomachinery, the elements are often exposed to aerodynamic loadings, the so-called engine order excitations. It has been reported that such excitations could cause ...
Computer Aided Geometric Design of Line Constructs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper develops a mathematical foundation for Computer Aided Design (CAD) of sculptured shapes based on line geometry. First, a new representation is presented for a line based on Plücker ...
Piezoelectric Networks for Vibration Suppression of Mistuned Bladed Disks
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Extensive investigations have been conducted to study the vibration localization phenomenon and the excessive forced response that can be caused by mistuning in bladed disks. Most previous ...
Vibration Control of Rotationally Periodic Structures Using Passive Piezoelectric Shunt Networks and Active Compensation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper proposes a multi-mode vibration suppression scheme for rotationally periodic structures. Identical active-passive hybrid piezoelectric networks are applied on each of the substructures, ...
Appraisal of Reciprocal Load Method for Reinforced Concrete Columns of Normal and High Strength Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Use of the reciprocal load method for evaluating the capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) columns under axial load and biaxial bending is suggested in concrete design handbooks and in commentaries to the design codes. The ...
On the Active-Passive Hybrid Control Actions of Structures With Active Constrained Layer Treatments
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper is concerned with the analysis of active and passive hybrid actions in structures with active constrained damping layers (ACL). A system model is derived via Hamilton’s Principle, ...
Structure, Mechanics and Failure of Stochastic Fibrous Networks: Part II—Network Simulations and Application
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Applications for porous fibrous materials range from electrochemical substrates to web reinforcement in polymeric composite materials. The details of local load transfer are studied in a class ...
