Model-Based Analysis of the Stiffness of the Wrist Joint in Active and Passive Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The control of joint stiffness is a fundamental mechanism used to control human movements. While many studies have observed how stiffness is modulated for tasks involving shoulder and elbow motion, a limited amount of ...

Developments in Cathodic Protection Applied to Reinforced Concrete
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Impressed current cathodic protection (CP) has been shown to provide an effective means of restraining corrosion associated with the presence of chloride ions in reinforced concrete structures. Advances in extended anode ...
Effects of Superblocks on Travel Demand: A Cost–Benefit and System Dynamics Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Car-oriented urban development has led to congested and polluted cities. Wide use of private vehicles reduces the public space for other transport modes, pedestrians, and other activities. So, there is a need to reorganize ...

New Structural Joint by Rebar Looping Applied to Segmental Bridge Construction: Fatigue Strength Tests
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The objective of this research has been to design, develop, and evaluate experimentally a modified type of construction joint of limited length between concrete slab segments. The design concept is based on an anchorage ...
Investigation and Optimization of Laser Welding of Ti 6Al 4 V Titanium Alloy Plates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Titanium alloys are employed in a wide range of applications, from aerospace to medicine. In particular, Ti6Al4 V is the most common, thanks to an excellent combination of low density, high specific strength, and corrosion ...
A Novel Compact Torsional Spring for Series Elastic Actuators for Assistive Wearable Robots
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The introduction of intrinsic compliance in the actuation system of assistive robots improves safety and dynamical adaptability. Furthermore, in the case of wearable robots for gait assistance, ...
Atmospheric Patterns over the Antarctic Peninsula
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractUsing clustering analysis for the sea level pressure field of the ERA-Interim reanalysis between 1979 and 2016, five synoptic pressure patterns have been obtained for the Drake area and Antarctic Peninsula (AP) ...
