RISMultibenefits Evaluation of Pavement Maintenance Treatments Based on Performance and Evolutionary Game Analysis
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: AbstractLife-cycle management and maintenance is essential to ensuring the long-term serviceability
of pavements. To investigate the mechanism of performance-based maintenance, two evaluation
indicators based on pavement ...
Anticipating the Regional Impacts of Connected and Automated Vehicle Travel in Austin, Texas
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Automated vehicles are undergoing very rapid development and have potential to revolutionize the existing transportation system. This paper investigates the impacts of connected automated vehicles (CAVs) and shared automated ...
Gas Path Fault Diagnosis of Turboshaft Engine Based on Novel Transfer Learning Methods
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Data-driven fault diagnosis method is widely used in the field of engine health management, which uses engine sensor data as input and engine faulty components as output for component-level fault diagnosis of the engine. ...
Design of an Actuation Device With the Capability of Automatically Distributing External Load Based on Stability Theorems
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Actuation redundancy is widely used to enhance loadcarrying capability of robot manipulators; however, it also causes the problems of uneven load distribution and internal forces. This paper presents a redundant actuation ...
Numerical and Experimental Investigations on the Hydrodynamic Performance of a Tidal Current Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In this paper, numerical and experimental investigations are presented on the hydrodynamic performance of a horizontal tidal current turbine (TCT) designed and made by our Dalian University of Technology (DUT) research ...
Algorithms for Generating Air-Void Structures of Idealized Asphalt Mixture Based on Three-Dimensional Discrete-Element Method
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The air-void structure of an asphalt mixture is a very important feature because it significantly impacts the strength and modulus of the material. Consequently, in-depth research into an air-void structure for quantification ...
A Moving Morphable Voids Approach for Topology Optimization With Closed B-Splines
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Topology optimization with moving morphable voids (MMVs) is studied in this paper. B-spline curves are used to represent the boundaries of MMVs in the structure. Kreisselmeier–Steinhauser (KS)-function is also implemented ...
Lithium Battery Thermal Management Based on Lightweight Stepped-Channel Liquid Cooling
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study proposes a stepped-channel liquid-cooled battery thermal management system based on lightweight. The impact of channel width, cell-to-cell lateral spacing, contact height, and contact angle on the effectiveness ...
