RISDynamic Modeling of a Six Degree of Freedom Flight Simulator Motion Base
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a closedform solution for the direct dynamic model of a flight simulator motion base. The motion base consists of a six degreeoffreedom (6DOF) Stewart platform robotic manipulator driven by electromechanical ...
Territorial Distribution Proposal for the Biofuel Consumption Target in the Transportation Sector in Accordance with the EU Energy Policy for 2020
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: One of the current targets of European Union (EU) energy policy is to reach at least a 10% share of biofuels in fuel consumed for transportation (petrol and diesel) in 2020. However, it has not been specified how this ...
Toward a More Integrated Approach to Planning and Implementing Local Development Policies to Tackle Rural Depopulation in Empty Spain
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study explores depopulation in municipalities with a very low population density in rural Spain. This issue has risen up the political and social agendas recently and represents one of the greatest challenges that ...

An Empiric-Stochastic Approach, Based on Normalization Parameters, to Simulate Solar Irradiance
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a methodology to estimate solar irradiance using an empiric-stochastic approach, which is based on the computation of normalization parameters from the solar irradiance data. For this study, the solar ...
Phenomenological Analysis of the Cured Kinetics in the Order n of the Reaction as a Function of the Temperature of an EPDM Polymer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The fabrication of rubber products involves a complex chemical process, which is invariably assisted by temperature and pressure. Obviously, the curing process specifications have a strong impact on the quality and mechanical ...
Real-Time Probabilistic Structural Evaluation of Bridges Using Dynamic Displacements Extracted via GPS Technology
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Global Positioning System (GPS) technology is reported in the literature as a reasonable alternative for the structural health monitoring (SHM) of bridges. However, more validations of GPS technology must be performed to ...
Multiscale Architecture Governs Stability in Suction-Actuated Variable Stiffness Catheters
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. Endovascular procedures require devices with widely varying mechanical properties: flexibility for navigating tortuous vessels, and rigidity for stable therapeutic delivery. Suction-actuated variable stiffness ...
