Impact of Dry Midlevel Air on the Tropical Cyclone Outer Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe impact of dry midlevel air on the outer circulation of tropical cyclones is investigated in idealized simulations with and without a moist envelope protecting the inner core. It is found that a dry midlevel ...
Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Dynamic Vibration Absorber Array for Vibration Mitigation of Integral Blisk
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dynamic vibration absorber array (DVAA) is a promising technique for vibration mitigation of integral blisk. In this paper, the effectiveness of the DVAA method is experimentally validated on a piezoelectric actuators-driven ...
Type Synthesis of a 3DOF Wrist Applying the Coupled-Input Cable-Driven Parallel Robot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The spatial cable-driven parallel robots (CDPRs) with low DOF (degree-of-freedom; n < 6) are like the physiological structure of bone and muscles, which are suitable for designing humanoid joints. Therefore, the type ...
Sliding Tribological Behavior of Al–Fe–V–Si–Graphite Solid-Lubricating Composites at Elevated Temperatures
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Aluminum alloy metal matrix composites (Al-MMCs) have been considered as promising materials for aerospace and automotive industries due to their excellent balance of physical, mechanical, and tribological properties. In ...
Feedforward Feedback Linearization Linear Quadratic Gaussian With Loop Transfer Recovery Control of Piezoelectric Actuator in Active Vibration Isolation System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hysteresis exists widely in intelligent materials, such as piezoelectric and giant magnetostrictive ones, and it significantly affects the precision of vibration control when a controlled object moves at a range of micrometers ...
The Formation Mechanism of a Spring Sea Fog Event over the Yellow Sea Associated with a Low-Level Jet
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper, a dense sea fog event that occurred over the Yellow Sea (YS) on 9 March 2005 is investigated using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model version 3.1.1 (WRF v3.1.1). It is shown that the WRF can reasonably ...
A New Parallel External Fixator Design for Correcting Ankle and Foot Sagittal Plane Deformities1
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
An Experimental Method for Fast Evaluating Thermoelectric Generators Using One Pair of P- and N-Type Legs
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are widely used in many industries. The voltage and output power of TEG chips are critical indicators to evaluate the performance of TEGs. The conventional method is to directly test the ...
Tribological Behavior of Al–20Si–5Fe–2Ni Alloy at Elevated Temperatures Under Dry Sliding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Wear-resistant aluminum alloys have enormous potential applications. In this paper, the Al–20Si–5Fe–2Ni alloy was fabricated by hot-pressed sintering, and its dry sliding wear behavior was investigated from 25 °C to 500 °C ...
Evaluating Runoff Generation in a Humid Bamboo Watershed Using Isotopic and Hydrochemical Tracer
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Most of the studies in humid catchments have discovered a similar conclusion that runoff generation was dominated by overland flow and interflow. However, the Hemuqiao watershed with long-term hydrological data which is ...
