Electric Bus Scheduling Considering Limited Charging Facility Capacity for Large-Scale Operation
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Electric buses (e-buses) have been increasingly introduced to urban transit systems in recent years. E-bus scheduling has become a critical problem to ensure cost-efficient transit service. To support continuous e-bus ...
An Approximation Approach to General Robustness Assessment for Multidisciplinary Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In many engineering applications, both random and interval variables exist. The mixture of both types of variables has been dealt with in robust design for single-disciplinary systems. This work ...
Pitch Cone Design and Avoidance of Contact Envelope and Tooth Undercutting for Conical Worm Gear Drives
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a systematic approach for the design, generation and analysis of conical worm gear drives. The approach is based on the mathematical formulations on the mesh, tooth generation ...
Blind System Identification of Noncoprime Multichannel Systems and Its Application to Noninvasive Cardiovascular Monitoring
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Multichannel blind system identification (MBSI) is a technique for estimating both an unknown input and unknown channel dynamics from outputs measured at different points of the system. MBSI is ...
On Higher Order Point-Line and the Associated Rigid Body Motions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a study on the higher-order motion of point-lines embedded on rigid bodies. The mathematic treatment of the paper is based on dual quaternion algebra and differential geometry ...
Point-Line Distance Under Riemannian Metrics
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A point-line is the combination of a directed line and an endpoint on the line. A pair of point-line positions corresponds to a point-line displacement, which is known to be associated with ...
Proper Orthogonal Decomposition of Pressure Field in Sloshing Impact
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To evaluate the predictive capability of the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) in approximating dynamics of wave impact, the method is applied to the special case of sloshing problems that are widely found in engineering ...
Rigid Body Motion Characteristics and Unified Instantaneous Motion Representation of Points, Lines, and Planes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The article presents a unified algebraic approach for the modeling of the instantaneous motions of all linear elements, such as points, lines, and planes, embedded in a rigid body. The paper ...
Characterization and Coordination of Point-line Trajectories
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A point-line refers to a rigid combination of a directed line and an endpoint along the line. To trace a point-line trajectory, one must control not only the trajectory of the endpoint (the ...
Continuous Mode Laser Coating of Hydroxyapatite/Titanium Nanoparticles on Metallic Implants: Multiphysics Simulation and Experimental Verification
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A novel methodology of laser coating of mixture of bioceramic and titanium nanoparticles onto metal implants is developed in this work. Feasibility of this approach is demonstrated via both ...
