Abstract: This paper presents, assesses, and optimizes a point absorber wave energy converter (WEC) through numerical modeling, simulation, and analysis. Wave energy conversion is a technology uniquely suited for assisting in power ...

Abstract: Two-dimensional mesoscale finite element analysis (FEA) of a multilayered brain tissue was performed to calculate the damage-related average stress triaxiality and local maximum von Mises strain in the brain. The FEA was ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a single-roller enveloping hourglass worm gear design and verifies its advantages compared to the existing double-roller worm gear system and the conventional worm gear set. Our hypothesis is that the ...
