Abstract As an integrated application of modern information technologies and artificial intelligence, Prognostic and Health Management (PHM) is important for machine health monitoring. Prediction of tool wear is one of t...

This benchmark case study introduces recently developed state-of-the-art general purpose multi-modal nonstationary reliability assessment method for marine, offshore, and naval structures, suitable for physically measure...

Abstract Converting customer needs into specific forms and providing consumers with services are crucial in product design. Currently, conversion is no longer difficult due to the development of modern technology, and va...

Abstract At present, the active control of gear vibration mostly relies on existing algorithms. In order to achieve effective vibration reduction of the gear system, particularly during the vibration process, this paper ...

Abstract The magnetic properties of the claw pole have a direct effect on the output power of a generator. Many methods can be used to measure these magnetic properties, each with its own advantages, but an important sho...

Widespread attention has been drawn to the underwater biomimetic robotic fish due to its excellent agility and little environmental disturbance. A hybrid-driven bionic robotic fish outfitted with dual-propeller thrusters...

Abstract Online parameter identification is essential for the accuracy of the battery equivalent circuit model (ECM). The traditional recursive least squares (RLS) method is easily biased with the noise disturbances from...

Sea ice fracture is a time-dependent process in which viscous relaxation delays the onset of cracking in the short term, but accumulated deformation and energy dissipation over long loading times can still lead to fractu...

To address the issue of autonomous bow-in berthing for inland vessels under environmental influence, a phased manifold-based rapidly-exploring random tree star (PMRRT*) approach is proposed for the trajectory and posture...

Abstract Planning and decision-making technology at intersections is a comprehensive research problem in intelligent transportation systems due to the uncertainties caused by a variety of traffic participants. As wireles...

Abstract Nickel-cobalt/silicon carbide (Ni-Co/SiC) composite coatings were fabricated by supergravity field-enhanced electrodeposition. The surface morphology and the distribution of the SiC particles in the coatings wer...

Process safety management (PSM) systems in offshore petroleum operations require systematic prioritization owing to complex technologies, harsh conditions, and resource constraints. This study develops an integrated fram...

Complex interactions between seawater and freshwater govern intrusion and stabilization in coastal aquifers. Previous studies have primarily relied on interface-based analyses, limiting full-field spatial quantification ...

Abstract Fuel consumption is one of the main concerns for heavy-duty trucks. Predictive cruise control (PCC) provides an intriguing opportunity to reduce fuel consumption by using the upcoming road information. In this s...

Abstract Photonic crystals are periodic structural materials that have an impact on the propagation properties of photons. Due to their excellent optical, electrical and magnetic properties, their advantages and potentia...

Abstract Because of their elastic links and joints, high-speed parallel robots for pick-and-place operations inevitably suffer from residual vibrations that significantly degrade their positioning accuracy. An effective ...

Abstract Wet multi-plate clutches are relevant components of modern drivetrain applications, not only in terms of function but also safety and comfort. Especially at the beginning of their lifetime, distinct changes of t...

Accurate geomagnetic field mapping plays a critical role in the navigation and localization of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), especially in environments where traditional satellite navigation is unavailable. This...

Abstract In this work it is assessed the potential of combining conventional and incremental sheet forming processes in a same sheet of metal. This so-called hybrid forming approach is performed through the manufacture o...

System-level remaining useful life (RUL) prediction is challenging because multisensor data fusion requires an integrated representation of multicomponent degradation, and the uncertainty of model parameters is often ove...

Abstract The establishment of an elastostatic stiffness model for over constrained parallel manipulators (PMs), particularly those with over constrained subclosed loops, poses a challenge while ensuring numerical stabili...

Abstract Variable stiffness mechanisms (VSMs) are a class of compliant mechanisms that can adjust their intrinsic stiffness, which promises to be beneficial in applications needed to interact with the environment, such a...

Abstract The hydro-viscous drive (HVD) has been widely used in fan transmission in vehicles, fans, and scraper conveyors for step-less speed regulation or soft starting. In the mixed friction stage, the contact, friction...
