Abstract: The primary purpose of this study is the reduction of local entropy production in a contra-rotating stage. As such, the unsteady flow phenomena and the impact of radial load distribution on these phenomena and local entropy ...

Abstract: The marginal ice zone (MIZ) is the area between sea ice and open water, the structure of which is mainly determined by wave and ice interactions. Thus mastering the characteristics of MIZ is of great significance to the ...

Abstract: The quality of threaded pipe connections is one of the key quality characteristics of drill pipes, risers, and pipelines. This quality characteristic is evaluated mainly by a pair of critical points, which are corresponding ...

Abstract: The negative electrode of sodium ion batteries (SIBs) has always faced severe challenges in the commercialization process. At present, the commercial negative electrode capacity of sodium ion batteries is only 300–350 mA ...

Abstract: The evaluation of the adaptability of expressway systems is a multiple-objective comprehensive evaluation problem. First, the concept of the adaptability of an expressway is defined, the 2-level index system to influencing ...

Abstract: In order to inspect the condition of micro milling cutter automatically and accurately in the online process, a dedicated micro milling cutter condition inspection system was established in this paper, which can effectively ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a simple effective stress method for modeling the strain rate-dependent strength behavior that is experienced by many fine-grained soils in offshore events when subjected to rapid, large strain, undrained ...
