Experimental Investigation of the Compressive Behavior of RCC under High Strain Rates: Considering the Rolling Technique and Layered Structure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is widely used in civil engineering, and its compressive behavior is commonly agreed to be affected by thin layers and the vibration rolling technique, which is different from conventional ...
Elastic–Adhesive Interface Effect on Effective Elastic Moduli of Fiber-Reinforced Asphalt Concrete with Large Deformation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A methodology has been developed to account for the elastic–adhesive interface effect on the effective elastic moduli of fiber-reinforced asphalt concrete. To consider the large deformation of asphalt mixtures, the nonlinear ...
Closed-Form Solution of Inverse Kinematics for a Minimally Invasive Surgical Robot Slave Manipulator Similar to Da Vinci Robot System
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Closed-form solution inverse kinematics has a unique advantage in robot control; it is quite difficult to be obtained through traditional methods as no effective analytic method has been identified so far, when the robot's ...
