Abstract: This paper studies the structural responses and failure modes of a 1.5-MW horizontal-axis wind turbine under strong ground motions and wind loading. Ground motions were selected and scaled to match the two design response ...

Abstract: The cracking behaviors of rocks significantly affect their mechanical properties. In this paper, a digital analysis approach with X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) imagery is developed to investigate the cracking and mechanical ...

Abstract: Identification of muscletendon force generation properties and muscle activities from physiological measurements, e.g., motion data and raw surface electromyography (sEMG), offers opportunities to construct a subjectspecific ...
