Abstract: In cooperation with the Hunan Support Project for the Reconstruction of Lixian, which is intended to reconstruct the highway that runs from Lixian to Xiaojin, we conducted an in-situ monitoring study of Baozizui rock slope ...

Abstract: Due to the flexibility and high degrees-of-freedom of flexible cables, their dynamic modeling and precise control are challenging. In this paper, the dynamic modeling and control of flexible cables with human-like dual ...

Abstract: Recently, the wedge self-locking nut, a special anti-loosening product, is receiving more attention because of its excellent reliability in preventing loosening failure under vibration conditions. The key characteristic ...

Abstract: We welcome the comments offered by Papangelo et al. on our paper [1] and respond to them here. We established the percolation threshold under the effect of anisotropy and compared it with the theoretical results given by ...

Abstract: Surface topography of sealing interface is a key factor affecting sealing performance. In industry, it has always been desirable to optimize the performance of static seals by optimizing the surface topography. The evolution ...

Abstract: Assembly variation should be predicted accurately in the design process of a product to ensure the performance of the assembled parts. One important issue in predicting assembly variation is to search propagation paths ...

Abstract: The percolation threshold strongly affects sealing performance. This paper investigates the relationship between the percolation threshold and the rough surface anisotropy, which is represented by the Peklenik number, γ. ...
