Abstract: Assembly tolerance design for spatial mechanisms is a complex engineering problem that involves a highly nonlinear dimension chain equation and challenges in simplifying the spatial mechanism matrix equation. To address ...

Abstract: Shimmy motion may occur for an aircraft nose landing gear (NLG) during its takeoff, landing, and taxiing procedure, which is an undesirable motion and should be suppressed. Here, a novel torsional nonlinear energy sink ...

Abstract: Comprehending the rainfall infiltration process in rockfill is essential for estimating the strength and unsaturated wetting deformation behaviors of rock structures. This paper presents an experimental study on the rainfall ...

Abstract: The emergency extension system for nose landing gear (NLG) is vitally important for safe landing in the event of hydraulic source failure. To study the dynamic properties of NLG emergency extension, it is necessary to ...
