A framework to model reliability and failures in complex systems during the early engineering design process

Creator:

O'Halloran, Bryan M.

Abstract:

An open area of research in complex systems is to move reliability and failure assessments earlier in the engineering design process. When compared to later design, early decisions are cost effective and have a large impact on the system. Standard methods are limited by the availability of data and often...

A portable dual-range fuel flowmeter for automotive research

Creator:

Hodgkins, Chester

Abstract:

This describes the development of a new fuel flowmeter. Among the desired features were an accuracy of ±2%, a linear response to fuel flow rate, a means of increasing the sensitivity at the low end of the meter scale and portability so that it would be equally useful in the...

A study of compression loading of composite laminates

Creator:

Berbinau, Pierre J.

Abstract:

The compressive behavior of continuous fiber composites is not as well understood as their tensile behavior because research and industrial applications have until recently focused on the latter. Furthermore, most theoretical and experimental studies on the compression of composites have examined the case of unidirectional specimens with fibers along the...

Thermal and seismic analysis of piping systems using classical methods

Creator:

Nisargand, Arun L.

Abstract:

"Piping Design and Engineering" first published in 1963 by Grinnell, Co. is widely used by engineers to perform approximate thermal stress analysis of high-temperature piping systems. The text consists of numerical constants to calculate end reactions and maximum bending stresses in a variety of piping configurations from known properties of...

Wind tunnel simulation and field measurements of flow over a coastal headland

Creator:

Brownlow, Roger West

Abstract:

An experimental study was made of the average and turbulent wind characteristics of the flow over a model of a coastal headland. The scale of the model was 300:1, corresponding to a prototype size of 500 m. The data for validation of the model study was obtained from instruments mounted...

A model for the mechanical behavior of irradiated mixed carbide sphere pac fuel pins

Creator:

George, Thomas L.

Abstract:

A model is developed that allows the prediction of the stress-strain distribution in a mixed carbide sphere pac fuel pin during irradiation. The model is coupled with a previously developed model for the thermal behavior of the pin. The one-dimensional (radial at various axial locations) solution is for quasi-steady pin...

Creep studies on Pheasant, Narcissus and Chukar aluminum conductors

Creator:

Patton, John Dennis

Abstract:

This thesis is an engineering report on the creep behavior of power transmission line conductors. Laboratory creep test results are reported for Pheasant, Narcissus and Chukar conductors. The report follows a standard nomenclature and format suggested by the International Study Committee No. 6 of Conference Internationale des Grands Reseaux Electriques...

From running birds to walking robots : optimization as a unifying framework for dynamic bipedal locomotion

Creator:

Hubicki, Christian M.

Abstract:

Bipedal locomotion is a complex phenomenon to understand and control, making it difficult for legged robots to achieve the speed, agility, efficiency, and robustness of their animal counterparts. This thesis argues for the use of numerical optimization to investigate and implement bipedal control as it applies to biology, dynamical models,...

Reduced order modeling of legged locomotion in the horizontal plane

Creator:

Wickramasuriya, Gamika Arun

Abstract:

Sprawled-posture insects exhibit a remarkable ability to rapidly run in a stable manner over complex terrain, a feat that has yet to be equaled by man-made legged robots. Recent experimental results suggest that these insects may employ a hierarchical control structure, in which locomotion performance emerges from a combination of...
