..., the finite element simulation of SLPM section was performed, and the physical model of SLPM section was made to conduct a series of experiment. Also, an origami robot based on SLPM was also made, and the motion form of the robot was explored by adams . At last, through establishing a mathematical model...

...-based design process to synthetically generate fault modes by representing them as a unique combination of internal component fault states, which can then be injected and simulated in a model of system failure dynamics. Based on these simulations, the designer may then better understand the underlying...

... presents a novel bio-inspired approach for model-based multivehicle mission planning under uncertainty for off-road AGVs subjected to mobility reliability constraints in dynamic environments. A physics-based vehicle dynamics simulation model is first employed to predict vehicle mobility (i.e., maximum...

...Songqing Shan; G. Gary Wang Computational tools such as finite element analysis and simulation are widely used in engineering, but they are mostly used for design analysis and validation. If these tools can be integrated for design optimization, it will undoubtedly enhance a manufacturer’s...

... as an abrasive and refines the tooth surface to achieve smoothness in rolling action and produce high quality gear sets. In this paper, the lapping process is reproduced using advanced modeling tools such as gear tooth vectorial simulation for the tooth surfaces and reverse engineering to analyze the tooth...

...S. J. Hu; R. Webbink; J. Lee; Y. Long A new method for evaluating the robustness of compliant assembly systems is developed based on previously developed variation simulation models. This method can be used for selecting a robust assembly system at product/process development stage. Examples...

...Lin Liu, Graduate Research Assistant; Darryll J. Pines, Associate Professor, Associate Fellow AIAA, AHS, ASME, IOP. This paper develops an analytical model to simulate the gear mesh contact for a spur gear pair with and without tooth damage. Three common gear tooth faults are simulated including...

...A. Mikkola The present paper introduces a method based on dynamic simulation for determining the fatigue parameters in a hydraulically driven log crane. The parameters that describe the nature of fatigue loads can be applied in order to facilitate designer work in fatigue life prediction...
