Abstract: Sheet and rod stock of 304L stainless steel were tested in uniaxial tension and compression at strain rates between 10−4 s−1 and 104 s−1 . To evaluate the yield locus behavior of the sheet ...

Abstract: 2024 aluminum tubes, heat treated to a T6 and T8 temper, were tested in combinations of tension-internal pressure and tension-torsion loading. Yield loci and flow behavior were determined for ...

Abstract: The multiaxial yield behaviors of 1100-0 aluminum, 70:30 brass, and an overaged 2024 aluminum alloy (2024-T7) have been investigated for a variety of prestress histories involving combinations ...

Abstract: This paper presents a wheelchair velocity feedback controller intended to reduce the control demands on a wheelchair driver in outdoor driving and in low speed maneuvering. A dynamic model of ...

Abstract: This paper describes a computer model of a wheelchair and its motor control circuitry. The model simulates the wheelchair’s motion in driving on a sloping surface, and is intended to facilitate ...
