RISBeam Motion With Unilateral Contact Constraints and Wear of Contact Sites
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present paper, a computational algorithm is proposed for the motion of a beam which is constrained by unilateral contact at prescribed contact sites. Special attention is focused on the ...
How to Build Flexible Design Automation Systems for Manufacturability Analysis of the Draw Bending of Aluminum Profiles
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Manufacturing companies continually need to develop and produce products faster, cheaper, and of better quality to meet requirements from customers and investors. One key factor in meeting these ...
Numerical Simulation of Contact Pressure Evolution in Fretting
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present paper an algorithm for frictional contact between two elastic bodies is presented. The algorithm is applied to the calculation of the evolution of contact pressure between two ...
Contact With Friction Between Two Elastic Half-Planes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the present paper the problem of contact with friction between two elastic bodies is formulated in the form of variational inequalities using half-plane assumptions for the elastic behavior. ...
Prediction Skill of the NAO and PNA from Daily to Seasonal Time Scales
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The skill of state-of-the-art operational dynamical models in predicting the two most important modes of variability in the Northern Hemisphere extratropical atmosphere, the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and Pacific?North ...
Nonlinear Finite-Element Analyses of Concrete Frame Corners
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A research project is currently being conducted to evaluate a new reinforcement detailing in frame corners in civil defense shelters where all reinforcement bars are spliced within the frame corner. As part of this, ...
Study of Frictional Impact Using a Nonsmooth Equations Solver
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper a mathematical formulation and a numerical algorithm for the analysis of impact of rigid bodies against rigid obstacles are developed. The paper concentrates on three-dimensional ...
Immersive Visual Interfaces–Assessing Usability by the Effects of Learning/Results from an Empirical Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Different immersive visual interfaces’ ability to support engineering designers in product design is assessed in an experimental study. A focus was put on learning as an important factor to ...
Computation of the Pressure Distribution in Hydrodynamic Bearings Using Newton’s Method
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper an algorithm is developed where Reynolds’ equation, equilibrium equations and non-negativity of pressure are formulated as a system of equations, which are not differentiable in ...
Mechanical Behavior of Circular Steel–Concrete Composite Stub Columns
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In an experimental and analytical study on the mechanical behavior of circular steel–concrete composite stub columns, 13 specimens were tested. To examine different mechanical behaviors of the columns, three loading ...
