Dynamic Fragmentation of Planetary Materials: Sub-Hypervelocity Ejecta Measurements and Velocity Scaling during Impact Testing
Download2013-01-01
Hogan, James, Vincent, Gregory, Spray, John, Rogers, Robert, Schneider, Markus
Ejecta velocity measurements were made during impacts into solid planetary materials. Ejecta velocity fields overlie each other when normalized by vmax, v50%mass, and v50%KE; these correspond to the maximum velocity and median values of mass and kinetic energy among ejecta velocities....

Investigating mechanisms of laser pulse-induced reflectivity modulations in photoacoustic remote sensing with a 10 million frames-per-second camera
Download2023-03-07
Haven, Nathaniel J. M., Martell, Matthew T., Li, Haoyang, Hogan, James D., Zemp, Roger J.
Photoacoustic remote sensing has been recently developed as an all-optical imaging modality capable of imaging a variety of endogenous contrast agents label-free. Initially predicted laser pulse-induced refractive index perturbation-based interrogation beam reflectivity modulations have been...

Principal components of super-high dimensional statistical features and support vector machine for improving identification accuracies of different gear crack levels under different working conditions
Download2015
Tsui, Kwok Leung, Zuo, Ming J., Tse, Peter W., Wang, Dong
Gears are widely used in gearbox to transmit power from one shaft to another. Gear crack is one of the most frequent gear fault modes found in industry. Identification of different gear crack levels is beneficial in preventing any unexpected machine breakdown and reducing economic loss because...

CFD Simulation Of Condensation Heat Transfer In Mini/Micro-Channels—Application In Waste Heat Recovery
Download2022-06-01
Ebrahimnia-Bajestan, Ehsan, Gharibnavaz, Mehrdad, Jin, Mingchao, Li, Ri, Brinkerhoff, Joshua, Milani, Abbas
The recovery of waste heat from low-temperature flue gas can be improved by capturing the latent heat part through the condensation of the vapor component. For this purpose, investigating the important parameters in designing efficient heat exchangers is necessary. Therefore, this study aims to...

He, Xingkang, Hashemi, Ehsan, Johansson, Karl H.
This paper studies how to control an agent in an uncertain environment over a connected sensor network, such that the agent is able to finish a sequence of tasks, namely, reaching certain sets in order. Based on multiple offline reference trajectories and constrained communication between the...
