Abstract: In this paper, we propose a novel approach to the control of closed kinematic chains (CKCs). This method is based on a recently developed singularly perturbed model for CKCs. Conventionally, ...

Abstract: A comprehensive investigation, including experimental research, finite-element analysis, and theoretical derivation, was thoroughly carried out on the steel Q370 under strong corrosion to study its fracture mechanism ...

Abstract: This paper presents research about a mixture design method of pavement concrete coblending rubber and fiber into ordinary concrete. Mechanical-based tests regarding the compressive strength, elastic modulus, splitting ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new method, the water stage prediction-correction (WSPC) method, based on the theory of characteristics to couple numerical models in the boundary-connected way for shallow-water flows. From the WSPC ...

Abstract: This paper details the development of a method for subcritical flow modeling in channel networks by using the implicit finite-difference method. The method treats backwater effects at the junction points on the basis of ...

Abstract: As an important technology of adaptive machining, on-machine measurement (OMM) is always used to measure the shape of the to-be-cut surface. Due to the multi-source errors in an OMM system, the confidence of the measurement ...

Abstract: The wide application of surfactants in cement-based materials requires the understanding of the influence of surfactants on the structure and properties of C–S–H gel. In this study, cation surfactants (CTAB) and anion ...
