in this paper, a new approach to modify cable tension measuring mechanism is described; furthermore, the constructed boards which amplify load cell output are introduced. this approach has some advantages including of providing feedback for motors, evaluating the robot’s ultimate load carrying capacity, improving the motor control system and estimating the vibrating deflections of the end effec...

62 Abstract In this paper, a new analytical technique to study the effect of wide-spread fatigue damage in ductile panels is presented. The main purpose of the study is to develop an efficient methodology to predict the maximum load carrying capacity of panels with cracks. The problem arises especially in the fuselage skin of aging airplanes, in which cracks initiate from a row of rivet holes. ...

Corrosion is one of the major problems affecting the durability of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. This paper investigates the effect of rebar corrosion on the performance of reinforced self-consolidating concrete (SCC) members and the effectiveness of repair. A control RC member, which has no corrosion problem, was prepared to compare against corroded and repaired members. A number of rei...
