Abstract: Simulation of the time histories of second-order wave effects is often performed by quadratic transformation of a wave time history. By the present approach, the quadratic transformation of waves ...

Abstract: In this paper, the dynamic performance of an unconventional two-spool flow control servovalve using a pressure control pilot is analyzed. Such valves are less expensive than typical servovalves ...

Abstract: In recent years, many applications in precision engineering require a careful isolation of the instrument from the vibration sources by adopting active vibration isolation system to achieve a ...

Abstract: The wave forces computed at the displaced position of offshore structures may introduce additional drift forces. This contribution is particularly significant for compliant offshore structures that ...

Abstract: The objective of the paper is to investigate the effect of temperature and caustic soda concentration in the bauxite digestion process on the settling behavior and the physical, chemical, and mineralogical characteristics ...

Abstract: A mathematical model was developed for calculating the temperature, stress-strain field, and their interaction in a metallic material undergoing phase transformation during quenching processes. The ...

Abstract: In this paper, we first present a mathematical method that can be used to predict the eutectic solder fillet shape for ceramic ball grid array joints. An underlying assumption is that the ...

Abstract: The objective in this research is to develop a mathematical model which simulates the grinding process and predicts the transient temperature field and the stresses generated in the workpiece ...

Abstract: Human operated, hydraulic actuated machines are widely used in many high-power applications. Improving productivity, safety and task quality (e.g., haptic feedback in a teleoperated scenario) has ...

Abstract: High bandwidth, high flow rate electrohydraulic valves typically have two or more stages. Most multi-stage valves are expensive, require meticulously clean fluid, and introduce higher order dynamics. ...
