RISFailure In-the-Row Model for Bolted Timber Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Forces in heavy timber members are often transferred at connections into steel gusset plates via laterally loaded bolts, which are arranged in rows parallel to member axes. Elastic analysis predicts an unequal sharing of ...
Mobility Change in Two Types of Metamorphic Parallel Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper presents a new joint coined as the rT joint and proposes two types of metamorphic parallel mechanisms assembled with this rT joint. In the first type, the mechanism changes its ...
An Approach to Modeling Cutting Forces in Five-Axis Ball-End Milling of Curved Geometries Based on Tool Motion Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The prediction of five-axis ball-end milling forces is quite a challenge due to difficulties of determining the underformed chip thickness and engaged cutting edge. To solve these concerns, this ...
Feasibility Study of an Intercooled-Cycle Marine Gas Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: From the perspective of an overall entity we analyzed the performance obtainable from the adoption of an intercooled-cycle gas turbine under different typical cycle parameters of a gas turbine. ...
An Introduction to Linear and Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis: A Computational Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: 9R1. An Introduction to Linear and Nonlinear Finite Element Analysis: A Computational Approach. - Edited by PK Kythe and Dongming Wei (Dept of Math, Univ of New Orleans, New Orleans LA 70148-0001). Birkhauser, Boston...
Experimental Investigation and Application Evaluation Case of an Adjustable Height Temporary Support for Bearing Replacement in Large-Tonnage HSR Bridges
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Temporary supports, as mechanical devices that bear reaction forces transmitted from jacks, play an important role in bearing replacement. Compared with medium- and small-span highway bridges, temporary support for bearing ...
Effect of Normal Transformation Methods on Performance of Multivariate Normal Distribution
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Multivariate normal distribution is used widely to characterize the uncertainties and correlations for correlated geotechnical data. The success of constructing a multivariate normal distribution depends on the reliable ...
Influence of Coarse Aggregate Size on the Bonding between CFRP Sheets and Metakaolin-Based Geopolymer Concrete and Ordinary Concrete
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Geopolymers have been employed as a replacement material for cement in construction because they are better for the environment than are other replacement material options. In recent decades, externally bonded carbon ...
Investigating the Effect of Geological Heterogeneity of Strata on the Bearing Capacity of Shallow Foundations Using Markov Random Field
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Geological heterogeneity is a result of the natural deposit process of strata with a highly irregular and uncertain distribution of soil mass in the real world. However, compared with the effect of inherent spatial variability ...
A Double-Layered Elbow Exoskeleton Interface With 3-PRR Planar Parallel Mechanism for Axis Self-Alignment
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Designing a mechanism for elbow self-axis alignment requires the elimination of undesirable joint motion and tissue elasticity. The novelty of this work lies in proposing a double-layered interface using a 3-PRR planar ...
