Variational Integrators on Manifolds for Constrained Mechanical Systems
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)Variational integrators play a pivotal role in the simulation and control of constrained mechanical systems. Current Lagrange multiplier-free variational integrators for such systems are concise but inevitably face issues ... -
A Nonlinear Mixed Finite Element Method for the Analysis of Flexoelectric Semiconductors
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)In this paper, we develop a nonlinear mixed finite element method for flexoelectric semiconductors and analyze the mechanically tuned redistributions of free carriers and electric currents through flexoelectric polarization ... -
Modeling Running via Optimal Control for Shoe Design
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)Shoe manufacturing technology is advancing faster than new shoe designs can viably be evaluated in human subject trials. To aid in the design process, this paper presents a model for estimating how new shoe properties will ... -
Contraction Analysis of Multi-Agent Control for Guaranteed Capture of a Faster Evader1

Substrate Thickness Optimization in Multi-Material Single Lap Adhesive Joints
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2024)Adhesive bonding of dissimilar materials introduces stress concentrations due to stiffness mismatch between the substrates, thereby exacerbating the peel and shear stresses leading to premature failures in single lap ... -
Stokes’ Second Flow Problem Revisited for Particle–Fluid Suspensions
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2023)An alternative analytical model is proposed for hydrodynamics of incompressible Newtonian fluids with suspended solid particles. Unlike existing single-phase models that do not distinguish the velocity field of suspended ... -
Measurement of Binder/Active Material Interface Fracture in Rechargeable Batteries and the Effect of Oxide Coating
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2023)Interface fracture is a critical issue for next-generation rechargeable batteries. The integrity of the binder/active material interface is essential for successful battery operation, and the interface failure is a major ... -
A Mechano-Electro-Chemical Coupling Model for Bending Analysis of Single-Stranded DNA Microbeam Biosensors Due to Flexoelectricity
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2023)Highly compliant structures such as microbeams can deform substantially in response to interactions between molecules adsorbed on their surface. To understand such systems and improve their detection signals, a ... -
Smooth Lagrangian Crack Band Model Based on Spress-Sprain Relation and Lagrange Multiplier Constraint of Displacement Gradient
(The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2023)A preceding 2023 study argued that the resistance of a heterogeneous material to the curvature of the displacement field is the most physically realistic localization limiter for softening damage. The curvature was ... -
