Abstract: This paper presents a density-based topology optimization framework for designing energy-dissipating plastic structures. In order to mitigate the material damage during the plastic energy dissipation process, the total ...

Abstract: This paper aimed to evaluate the process stability and microbial community structure during anaerobic digestion of food waste. Organic loading rate (OLR) disturbances were introduced into a mesophilic anaerobic digester ...

Abstract: Existing various constructed models of stamping provide great support to develop the forming quality improvement and energy-saving strategies. However, the immutable model cannot reflect the actual states of the process ...

Abstract: Thermal cycling of molds is frequently desired in thermoplastic processing. Thermal cycling of the entire mold with a large mass, however, requires an exceedingly long cycle time. A processing ...

Abstract: The storage of hydrogen in a compressed gaseous form offers the simplest solution in terms of infrastructure requirements and has become the most popular and most highly developed hydrogen ...

Abstract: The single point diamond turning process has been used extensively for direct optical surface fabrication. However, the diamond machined surfaces have characteristic periodic tool marks, which ...

Abstract: This paper reports on the efficiency and economy of bundled electrode in die-sinking electrical discharge machining (EDM). Bundled electrode was fabricated by putting several thin tubular or ...

Abstract: Xi’an, as a typical inland city in China with a worse integrated transport system, has promoted the use of metro service to ease serious traffic congestion. This paper uses a logistic regression model to examine mode shifts ...
