Revisiting the Industrial Pneumatic Technology—An Innovative Development for an Increased Energetic Efficiency
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new pneumatic cylinder assembly is proposed as an alternative to classical cylinders which are well known for their poor energetic efficiency. The new system comprises an added expansion volume which permits to recover ...
Progress of Additive Manufacturing Technology and Its Medical Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as threedimensional (3D) printing, is a disruptive technology that is revolutionizing many industries. It is gaining considerable attention, particularly in the medical field as it ...
Predicting the Aerial Application of Dispersant Onto an Oil Spill
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The release of dispersant from an aircraft onto an oil spill is simulated using the AGDISPpro computer model, to develop a better understanding of how aircraft type, spray systems, and meteorological conditions affect the ...
Design, Development, and Validation of a Whole-Body Vibration Measurement Device
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Measurements of whole-body vibration are fundamental to access and evaluate comfort levels and possible injury development in the human being. International standards such as ISO 2631 and ISO 10326 are dedicated to the ...
An Equation for the Bulk Modulus of Composites Derived From the Effective Medium Theory
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Bulk modulus has wide applications in well engineering, seismic exploration, waste reinjection, and predicting pore pressure in carbonate reservoirs. However, there is no easy way to obtain accurate values for the effective ...
Hybrid Positioning Approach for Context-Aware Indoor Navigation of Visually Impaired People
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Indoor localization for visually impaired persons is an open research problem, and individual localization approaches have failed to provide accurate results in the literature. Therefore, this paper presents a context-aware ...
Hexagonal Twist Origami Pattern for Deployable Space Arrays
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The hexagonal twist origami pattern has characteristics that made it a candidate for nextgeneration deployable space arrays. It has a deployed area that is up to 3.3 times larger than the stowed area, has a singledegreeoffreedom ...
Influence of Accident-Tolerant Fuel With Steel Cladding for Sustainable Heat Transfer in the Reactor Core of VVER-1200
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Since the events at the Fukushima–Daiichi nuclear power plant, there has been increased interest in developing accident tolerant fuel (ATF) to avoid accidents for light water reactors where Uranium-Silicide-based fuel has ...
Multi-Objective Optimization of an Axial Flow Turbine Design Using Surrogate Modeling and Genetic Algorithm
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A surrogate model-based multi-objective design optimization methodology using a nondominated sorting genetic algorithm is used to maximize the power output and efficiency of an axial flow turbine. A set of high-fidelity ...
Viscous Dissipation and Joule Heating Effects on 3D Magnetohydrodynamics Flow of Williamson Nanofluid in a Porous Medium Over a Stretching Surface With Melting Condition
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The aim of the current article is to demonstrate heat transfer characteristics of Williamson nanofluid flow through a stretching surface with a porous medium in two lateral directions. Heat generation, nonlinear thermal ...
