Abstract Background 95% Of all metals and alloys are processed using strip rolling, explaining the great number of existing rolling optimization models. Yet, an accurate in-situ full-field experimental measurement method deformation, velocity strain fields in deformation zone is lacking. Objective Here, a novel time-Integrated Digital Image Correlation (t-IDIC) framework proposed validated that...

An analytical model of vane dynamics in a tilted vane rotary compressor is presented. With the geometric relationship of the vane in a tilted slot, and the roller, the kinetic equations were derived for evaluating the reciprocating inertial force of the vane, and the chamber volume equations were obtained for calculating pressure history inside the compression chamber. The empirical friction co...

This paper presents the design of a body-powered voluntary closing prosthetic hand. It is argued that the movement of the fingers before establishing a grip is much less relevant for good control of the object held than the distribution of forces once the object has been contacted. Based on this notion, the configurations of forces on the fingers and the force transmission through the whole mec...

Sideslip force, longitudinal force, rolling moment, and pitching moment generated by tethered fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster, were measured during optomotor reactions within an electronic flight simulator. Forces and torques were acquired by optically measuring the angular deflections of the beam to which the flies were tethered using a laser and a photodiode. Our results indicate that fr...

Abstract—In this work, effects of the friction and truncation on the dynamics of a double-cone gravitational motor, self-propelled on a straight V-shaped horizontal rail, are evaluated. Such mechanism has a variable radius of contact, and, on one hand, it is similar to a pulley mechanism that changes the potential energy into the kinetic energy of rotation, but on the other hand, it is similar ...

Geckos can run rapidly on walls and ceilings, requiring high friction forces (on walls) and adhesion forces (on ceilings), with typical step intervals of approximately 20 ms. The rapid switching between gecko foot attachment and detachment is analyzed theoretically based on a tape model that incorporates the adhesion and friction forces originating from the van der Waals forces between the subm...

Rolling bearing and squeeze film damper will introduce structural nonlinearity into the dynamic model of aeroengine. Rubbing occur due to clearance reduction design engine. The coupling fault make engine present rich vibration responses. This paper aims analyze nonlinear behavior whole aeroengine including rolling under rubbing fault. Firstly, a turboshaft with support is established; force, oi...

A curvature self-interaction of the cosmic gas is shown to mimic a cosmological constant or other forms of dark energy, such as a rolling tachyon condensate or a Chaplygin gas. Any given Hubble rate and deceleration parameter can be traced back to the action of an effective curvature force on the gas particles. This force self-consistently reacts back on the cosmological dynamics. The links bet...
