Design and Validation of a Compatible 3 Degrees of Freedom Shoulder Exoskeleton With an Adaptive Center of Rotation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper outlines an experimentally based design method for a compatible 3DOF shoulder exoskeleton with an adaptive center of rotation (CoR) by matching the mechanical CoR with the anatomical CoR to reduce human–machine ...
Novel Pressure Resistant Oil Immersed Proportional Actuator for Electrohydraulic Proportional Control Valve
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a novel pressureresistant oilimmersed proportional actuator with a magnetic grid magneticisolated ring (MGMR) on its singlepiece sleeve. A twodimensional finite element method is used to establish the ...
A Handheld Sampler for Collecting Organic Samples from Shallow Hydrothermal Vents
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study describes a new handheld sampler, specially designed to be deployed by scuba divers, to collect fluid samples from shallow hydrothermal vents. The new sampler utilizes a syringe-like titanium sampling bottle with ...
A Novel Visual Apparatus for Laboratory Simulation of Seafloor Hydrothermal Venting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a novel visual experimental apparatus for simulating seafloor hydrothermal venting is proposed. The instrument consists mainly of an acrylic pressure vessel and a hydrothermal fluid syringe pump, which ...
Collection of Gas-Tight Water Samples from the Bottom of the Challenger Deep
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA new gas-tight pair sampler was designed for the collection of gas-tight fluid samples from the hadal zone. The sampler uses two titanium bottles and one sampling valve to collect two samples at once. The sampler ...
Rigid-Foldable Mechanism Inspired by Origami Twisted Tower
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rigid origami mechanisms have great practical utility in different fields. This paper presents a rigid and foldable mechanism based on the origami artwork Twisted Tower. The mathematical model of the funnel-shaped tower ...
Optimizing Preloading Pressure of Precharged Gas for Isobaric Gas-Tight Hydrothermal Samplers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Isobaric gas-tight hydrothermal samplers, with the ability to maintain pressure, can be used to keep in situ chemical and biological sample properties stable. The preloading pressure of the precharged gas is a major concern ...
