RISCompressive Behavior of Concrete-Filled Filament-Wound FRP Tubes with Local Tube Damage
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Concrete-filled fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) tubes (CFFTs) are an emerging and attractive form of column for new constructions. Such a column consists of outer filament-wound FRP tubes that are filled with plain or ...
Fatigue Behavior of Stirrup Free Reactive Powder Concrete Beams Prestressed with CFRP Tendons
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: A comprehensive study on the fatigue behavior of stirrup free reactive powder concrete (RPC) beams prestressed with carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) tendons is presented in this paper. A total of six specimens were ...
Experimental Investigations on Impact Behavior of CFRP Cables under Pretension
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Carbon fiber–reinforced polymer/plastic (CFRP) used in bridge cables may be subjected to lateral impacts caused by vehicle collisions when in service. However, to date, few studies have been conducted on the impact behavior ...
Static Performance of a Long-Span Concrete Cable-Stayed Bridge Subjected to Multiple-Cable Loss during Construction
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: To study the structural response of a long-span cable-stayed bridge to cable loss during construction, the static performance of the Chishi Bridge subjected to multiple-cable loss caused by a fire accident was investigated ...
Development of a Novel 4-DOF Flexible Endoscopic Robot Using Cable-Driven Multisegment Continuum Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the design, analysis, and development of a novel four degrees of freedom (4-DOF) endoscopic robot with cable-driven multisegment flexible continuum mechanisms. The endoscopic robot is mainly composed ...
Development of a New Cable-Driven Planar Parallel Continuum Robot Using Compound Kinematic Calibration Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents the design, calibration, and development of a novel cable-driven planar parallel continuum robot (PCR). The PCR employs a novel drive unit, which is mainly composed of cables, guiding pulleys, and ...
Optimizing 3D Laser Foil Printing Parameters for AA 6061: Numerical and Experimental Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study utilizes a technology known as 3D laser foil printing (LFP) to create precise structures by layering metal foils using laser welding. Metal foils have the advantages of rapid cooling and efficient heat conduction, ...
Exploit Social Distancing in Construction Scheduling: Visualize and Optimize Space–Time–Workforce Tradeoff
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The COVID pandemic has given rise to the necessity of social distancing regulations, which has brought the importance of workspace management on the construction site to an unprecedented level. Understanding and visualizing ...
Design of a Novel Tendon-Sheath-Driven Upper Limb Exoskeleton for Assisting Surgeon Performing Microlaryngoscopic Surgery
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Microlaryngoscopic surgery is a type of laryngeal surgery performed by surgeons using microsurgical instruments under the observation of a specially designed laryngoscope. While performing a microlaryngoscopic operation, ...
Stress–Strain Assessments for Buried Oil Pipelines Under Freeze-Thaw Cyclic Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, outdoor freeze-thaw cyclic tests on the Q345 steel pipeline portion were conducted to analyze the buried oil pipeline stress evolution in a seasonally frozen soil area, namely, the Mohe–Daqing portion of ...
