RISLong-Range Electrostatic Adhesive Contact Between an Elastic Half-Space and a Rigid Indenter With Power-Law Profile
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this study, the electrostatic adhesive contact between a smooth indenter with a power-law geometry and an elastic half-space is studied using both a theoretical and numerical approach. Both the indenter and substrate ...
Neural Dynamics and Newton–Raphson Iteration for Nonlinear Optimization
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, a special type of neural dynamics (ND) is generalized and investigated for timevarying and static scalarvalued nonlinear optimization. In addition, for comparative purpose, the gradientbased neural dynamics ...
Shaft Capacity of Displacement Piles in Clay Using the Cone Penetration Test
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The prediction of the shaft capacity of displacement piles in clay still relies wholly on empirical or semiempirical approaches. This paper examines the predictive abilities of five well-known methods against an extended ...
Kinematical Analysis of 3D Seismic Stability of Slopes in Unsaturated and Inhomogeneous Soils Using a Pseudodynamic Method
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Earthquakes are recognized as one of the main causes of slope instability. Hence, assessment of slope seismic stability has attracted considerable attention from researchers. However, most studies currently focus on the ...
Turning Pressure into Power: The Configuration Effect of Antecedents on the Digital Transformation of Engineering Enterprises
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Institutional environment shapes the success of enterprise digital transformation, but its impact pathways, to our best knowledge, have received relatively little investigation, particularly in the fields of architecture, ...
Three-Dimensional Stability of Slurry Trench Wall under Water Drawdown
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: To address the engineering problem of wall collapse and destabilization during the construction of the slurry trench wall, the stability of the slurry trench wall under the condition of three-dimensional (3D) unsaturated ...
Revisiting the Diffusion Equation Derivation in Persson’s Theory of Contact
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Abstract. In Persson’s seminal work on tire–road interaction (Persson, 2001, “Theory of Rubber Friction and Contact Mechanics,” J. Chem. Phys. 115(8), pp. 3840–3861), he ingeniously derived a diffusion equation in Appendix ...
Zhang Gradient Controllers for Tracking Control of Multiple Integrator Systems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, the trackingcontrol problem of multipleintegrator (MI) systems is considered and investigated by combining Zhang dynamics (ZD) and gradient dynamics (GD). Several novel types of Zhanggradient (ZG) controllers ...
Landscape Character Diversity and Zoning Management: Case of Wuhan Metropolitan Area
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: The landscape character of metropolitan areas faces the problem of competition between protection and development. This study explores the synergism of management, protection, and development of landscape character diversity ...
