abstract: a continuously variable transmission (cvt) is a transmission which may change step less by way of an infinite variety of effective gear ratios between maximum and minimum values. this contrasts with different mechanical transmissions that solely permit just a few different distinct gear ratios to be selected. continuously variable transmissions (cvts) are mechanical devices that allow...

the effect of geometry and material of the micro/nano particle on contact mechanic for manipulation was studied in this work based on atomic force microscopy. hertz contact model simulation for eph biological micro particle with spherical, cylindrical, and circular crowned roller shape was used to investigate the effect of geometry on contact simulation process in manipulation. then, to validat...

In this paper, we present a new and innovative sheet material folding technology and the associated advances in folding different patterns using continuous manufacturing techniques. A novel approach is developed for the continuous folding process where sheet material is progressively folded in two dimensions, through a set of rollers, followed by a configured roller for the final folding in the...

An apparatus to simulate the thermal behavior of a 3/4 inch bore tapered roller bearing was constructed and used to determine tapered roller bearing thermal behavior. Bearing specimens can be loaded axially and/or radially while rotating. Shaft heating is also provided and mechanical losses measured. An infrared scanner and thermocouples allow for temperature measurement. An analytical model of...

A 31-year-old woman with history of antiphospholipid syndrome treated with warfarin reported two days after a roller-coaster ride, sudden onset of paresthesias in the right side of the face and in the right hand, followed by headache. Neuroimaging results are shown in Figures 1 and 2. The “blood/fluid level” represented by the interface between plasma and sedimented blood (Figure 1) can be seen...
