On the Numerical Influences of Inertia Representation for Rigid Body Dynamics in Terms of Unit Quaternion
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Inertia plays a crucial role in the quaternionbased rigid body dynamics, the associated mass matrix, however, presents singularity in the traditional representation. Recent researches demonstrated that the singularity can ...
Spatial Distribution Assay of Active Neutron Counting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In response to the nuclear material accounting and control system, uranium or plutonium mass and also the isotope abundance should be quantified comprehensively. Commonly, in nuclear safeguards and nuclear security field, ...
Stability Conditions and Stiffness Variability of General Tensegrity Systems With Kinematic Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tensegrity systems represent promising candidate mechanisms with in situ stiffness variability through changing the cables’ prestress levels. However, prestress-based stiffness behaviors of tensegrity systems with arbitrary ...
