with the expanding demand on application of magnesium alloys in automotive and aerospace industries, robust methods in fatigue characterization of commercially available magnesium alloys with high specific strength is anticipated. in this paper, rotating bending load controlled tests has been studied on specimens machined from an extrusion piece of az31b. due to asymmetric and anisotropic behav...

wind power generation is variable and uncertain. in the power systems with high penetration of wind power, determination of equivalent operating reserve is the main concern of systems operator. in this paper, a model is proposed to determine operating reserves in simultaneous market clearing of energy and reserve by stochastic programming based on scenarios generated via monte carlo simulation ...

We mean by a normal form a finite set of ordered pairs of subsets of a fixed set that fulfils two conditions: elements of it consist of disjoint sets and elements of it are incomparable w.r.t. inclusion. The underlying set corresponds to a set of propositional variables but is arbitrary. The correspodents to a normal form of a formula, e.g. a disjunctive normal form, is as follows. The normal f...

High-speed maglev train is considered an ideal vehicle in the 21st Century, as an important part of the train, the travel mechanism bears and delivers a variety of vertical and horizontal alternating load in operation, it affects the operation safety of the train directly, so key components of the travel mechanism should under fatigue strength test by fatigue test machine.The paper proposed a v...
