Abstract: This paper focuses on the synthesis of an independent suspension that can guide the wheel to track a straight line when moving up (jounce) and down (rebound). With displacement subgroups, it ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a synthesis method for rectilinear motion generating spatial mechanism with application to automotive suspension. First, it presents a generic process to synthesize the kinematic ...

Abstract: Regional frequency analysis of extreme precipitation after a drought event based on the L-moment method has provided promising insights into drought risk management. The drought index of continuous noneffective rainy days ...

Abstract: Because of the growing demand for energy in recent years, multireservoir system operation with a power deficit aspect is becoming an increasingly important problem in electrical power systems. To satisfy this practical ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a foldable stair that is easily deployed for use and folded for storage. It consists of a number of identical deployable scissor-like elements which form the staircases ...

Abstract: Accurate hydrologic time-series prediction plays an important role in modern water resource planning, water supply management, environmental protection, and power system operation. In general, single-layer feedforward ...
