The dynamics of a fully nonlinear, tree-structured resonator and its response to a broadband forcing of the branches is examined. It is shown that the broadband forcing yields a transfer of energy between the parts of the spectrum so that the spectrum becomes progressively more narrow-band for...

Initial experimental and theoretical investigation of solar molten media methane cracking for hydrogen production
Download2014-01-01
Paxman, D., Trottier, S., Nikoo, M., Secanell, Marc, Ordorica-Garcia, G.
Previous work assessed the fundamental technical and market risks associated with the development and deployment of solar fuels technology in Alberta. It identified methane cracking in solar-molten media as the hydrogen production technology featuring the best combination of technical risk,...

Chaudhry, Muhammad Salman, Czekanski, Aleksander
This work presents a methodology for the visual detection and robotic tracking of an uncooperative target. This article presents a closed-loop visual feedback-based control strategy combined with the Kalman filtering technique for autonomous tracking of the target object. The framework is based...

In traditional reliability theory, both the system and its components are allowed to take only two possible states: working or failed. In a multi-state system, both the system and the components are allowed to be in M+1 states: 0, 1, 2,…, M, where M is a positive integer which represents a system...

A Simulation Study For Distributed Load Measurement Of A Cylindrical Rolling Element Bearing
Download2022-06-01
Wang, Xin, Liang, Xihui, Wu, Nan
In this paper, a relationship between a load applied on the inner ring and strains measured on the outer ring of a bearing is studied. A linear relationship is confirmed under different loading conditions. Finite element analysis of a cylindrical rolling element bearing with 11 rollers is...

Automated Microscopy and Particle Size Analysis of Dynamic Fragmentation of Natural Ceramics
Download2013
Castillo, Josemar, Rogers, Robert J., Rawle, Alan, Spray, John, Hogan, James
The dynamic fragmentation of gabbro and granitoid tiles, and coarser and finer grained granitoid blocks have been examined for impact energies of 21–6180 J. Intra-grain fragmentation and inter-granular frictional melting were observed to be common features of the fragmentation process....

The Effects of Microstructure and Confinement on the Compressive Fragmentation of an Advanced Ceramic
Download2014
Farbaniec, Lukasz, Shaeffer, Matt, Ramesh, K.T., Hogan, James
We investigate the rate-dependent compressive failure and fragmentation of a hot-pressed boron carbide, under both uniaxial and confined biaxial compression, using quantitative fragment analysis coupled with quantitative microstructural analysis. Two distinct fragmentation regimes are observed,...
