Deformation of Angle Profiles in Forward Kinematics for Nullifying End-Point Offset While Preserving Movement Properties
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This work describes a new approach that allows an angle-domain human movement model to generate, via forward kinematics, Cartesian-space human movement representation with otherwise inevitable ...
IntelliGIS: Tool for Representing and Reasoning Spatial Knowledge
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents a method for the representation and reasoning of spatial knowledge. Spatial knowledge is important to decision making in many transportation applications that involve human judgment and understanding ...
An Integrating Velocity–Azimuth Process Single-Doppler Radar Wind Retrieval Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Among the single-Doppler radar wind analysis methods, the velocity?azimuth display (VAD), velocity?azimuth process (VAP), and uniform-wind (UW) methods are widely used because of their simplicity. This paper shows that the ...
Shape Bifurcation of a Spherical Dielectric Elastomer Balloon Under the Actions of Internal Pressure and Electric Voltage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Under the actions of internal pressure and electric voltage, a spherical dielectric elastomer balloon usually keeps a sphere during its deformation, which has also been assumed in many previous studies. In this article, ...
K Variations and Anisotropy: Microstructure Effect and Numerical Predictions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Computer experiments were performed on simulated polycrystalline material samples that possess locally anisotropic microstructures to investigate stress intensity factor (K) variations and anisotropy ...
Computer Identification of Structural Weaknesses in Locally Anisotropic Polycrystalline Materials
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Computer experiments were performed to investigate behavior of mesoscopic stress responses in a simulated polycrystalline material sample containing a fairly large number of constituent grains for ...
Stress-Strain Behavior and Statistical Continuous Damage Model of Cement Mortar under High Strain Rates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The effects of strain rate on the dynamic stress-strain behavior of cement mortar were investigated in split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) tests; the resulting strain rates ranged from 20 to
Development of Metal Embedded Microsensors by Diffusion Bonding and Testing in Milling Process
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a new method to embed microthin film sensors into metallic structures by diffusion bonding. The experiments were carried out using AISI 304 stainless steel substrates with ...
Influence of Combination between Asphalt Pavement Layers to Water Damages
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The status of adhesion between asphalt layers affects the development of water damages. Through drilling core investigation of a highway, it is found that there are smoothness between asphalt layers in water damage spots ...
Fatigue Assessment of Steel-UHPC Lightweight Composite Deck Based on Multiscale FE Analysis: Case Study
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A lightweight steel–ultrahigh performance concrete (UHPC) composite deck (LWCD) was developed for alleviating deterioration issues in orthotropic steel decks (OSDs). In recent years, the LWCD has been increasingly applied ...
