Design and Validation of Symmetrical Elastic Elements in Series Elastic Actuator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In recent years, the demand for robot joint compliance increased with more complex human–robot interaction scenarios. Series elastic actuators (SEAs) are extensively utilized in multiple fields with abilities to provide ...
Interface Transition Zone in Coal Gangue Aggregate Concrete Reinforced by Phosphorus Slag: Macroscopic Properties and Microstructure
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study used phosphorus slag (PS) from yellow phosphorus production to strengthen the structure and performance of the interface transition zone (ITZ) of coal gangue aggregate concrete (CGAC) based on the surface ...
Application of Modal Identification Methods to Spatial Structure Using Field Measurement Data
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Modal identification with output-only measurements plays a key role in vibration-based damage detection, model updating, and structural health monitoring in civil engineering. This paper addresses ...
A Total Lagrangian ANCF Liquid Sloshing Approach for Multibody System Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The objective of this investigation is to develop a total Lagrangian nonincremental liquid sloshing solution procedure based on the finite element (FE) absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). The proposed liquid ...
A Real-Time Predictor-Corrector Interpolator for CNC Machining
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a predictor-corrector interpolator (PCI) for the CNC machining of parts with parametric curves or surfaces. In contrast to existing parametric interpolators, the proposed method ...
Lane-Based Queue Length Estimation in Heterogeneous Traffic Flow Consisting of Cars and Buses
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Queue length is the most important traffic evaluation index used for traffic signal control at signalized intersections. Most previous studies focused on estimating the queue length in homogeneous traffic flow, but they ...
Network Flow Optimization Model for Basin-Scale Water Supply Planning
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper develops a generalized network flow optimization model for long-term supply-demand analysis for basin-wide water resources planning. A set of nodes and arcs are used to form the network, and the decision variables ...
Effects of Vertical Variation in Vegetation Density on Wave Attenuation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A physical model experiment was used to investigate irregular wave attenuation through emergent vegetation with variations in stem heights. The experiment was conducted with six peak periods, six incident wave heights, and ...
Theoretical and Experimental Study on Active Stiffness Control of a Two-Degrees-of-Freedom Rope-Driven Parallel Mechanism
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rope-driven mechanisms with the characteristics of high speed, low inertia, and high precision are widely utilized in numerous fields. Stiffness is an important indicator to illustrate the precision and compliance of the ...
Absolute Nodal Coordinate Formulation-Based Decoupled-Stranded Model for Flexible Cables With Large Deformation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The existing flexible cable dynamics model, established using the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF), suffers from the issue of strain coupling. It also does not consider the nonlinear mechanical properties inside ...
