Abstract: We study apparent elastic moduli of trabecular bone, which is represented, for simplicity, by a two- or three-dimensional periodic cellular network. The term “apparent” refers to the case when ...

Abstract: The mechanical performances of turbocharger rotor bearings system are strongly coupled with the thermal effects of lubrication. This paper built an integrated three-dimensional thermohydrodynamic model for the rotor and ...

Abstract: The forced vibration of gyroscopic continua is investigated by taking the pipes conveying fluid as an example. The nonlinear normal modes and a numerical iterative approach are used to perform numerical response analysis. ...

Abstract: Natural joints play an important role in the stability performance of rock engineering. To deeply understand the shear mechanism of natural joints (i.e., tensile fracture or shear fracture), direct shear experiments and ...

Abstract: Considering the complicated geometry in an active clearance control (ACC) system, the design of an improved cooling feed pipe with a covering plate for a high pressure ribbed turbine case was investigated. Numerical ...

Abstract: Based on a large amount of real-time microseismic monitoring data and hundreds of rockburst cases of different types stemming from the construction of deep tunnels at Jinping Mountain Hydropower Station, Sichuan Province, ...

Abstract: Rockbursts are a common form of disaster that occur during the construction of deep tunnels in hard rock. This is especially the case in the breakthrough stage of excavation, when even more attention should be paid to the ...
