Authors have been conducting research on an autonomous system for loading operation by wheel loader. In loading operation with V shape loading method, a time for travelling is the dominant factor for the cycle time. The path should be modified varied condition of the working place. To achieve quicker and reliable operation in autonomous loading operation, new path planning method is developed. ...

Eventually, the prediction of transformer thermal performance for dynamic loading will be made using models distilled from measured data, rather than models derived from transformer heat-run tests. Which model(s) will be used for this purpose remains unclear. In this paper, we introduce metrics for measuring the acceptability of transformer thermal models. For a model to be acceptable, it must ...

The in vivo mouse tibial loading model is used to evaluate the effectiveness of mechanical treatment against skeletal diseases. Although studies have correlated bone adaptation with induced stimulus, predictions remodeling remained poor, and interaction between external physiological engendering changes not been determined. aim this study was determine effect passive on strain distribution tibi...

Abstract This study identified drivers of change in Barnegat Bay–Little Egg Harbor Estuary, NJ, USA over multiple long-term time periods by developing an assessment tool (an “Eutrophication Index”) capable of handling data gaps and identifying the condition of and relationships between ecosystem pressures, ecosystem state, and biotic responses. The Eutrophication Index integrates 15 indicators ...

Hidden failure in a protection system has been recognized as one of the main reasons which may cause to a power system instability leading to a system cascading collapse. This paper presents a computationally systematic approach used to obtain the estimated average probability of a system cascading collapse by considering the effect of probability hidden failure in a protection system. The esti...

Obesity is one of the commonest pathologies of industrialized countries. Many studies have been published on this pathology and its consequences, but very few used a biomechanical approach on the problem. We are interested in the biomechanical analysis of postural stability and loading condition of the spine of normal – weight and obese subjects. In fact, due to the excessive fat mass, especial...

The damage accumulation condition expressed in terms of traction components on a physical plane is considered for both monotonic and cyclic loading conditions. The crack initiation is assumed to correspond to a critical value of damage parameter on a maximum damage plane. A non-local condition is formulated for singular stress or strain regimes. The model is applied to predict damage distributi...

a critical protection requirement for grid connected distributed generators (dg) is anti-islanding protection. in this paper, a new islanding detection method for any possible network loading is proposed based on utilizing and combining various system parameter indices. in order to secure the detection of islanding, eight intentional disturbances are imposed to the system under study in which t...

J. Kliber, VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava, Faculty of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering, Czech Republic Metal forming can be regarded as a process during which materials are treated by “force” and “heating” under a certain external load and boundary condition (loading mode, rate of loading, constraint condition, geometry, contact friction condition, temperature field). As well as in f...
