Detecting Loosening of Bolt‐Flanged Pipe Using Smoothed Pseudo Wigner–Ville Distribution: Digital Twin‐Based Approach Using Convolution Neural Networks

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, an integrated digital twin‐based fault‐diagnosis framework is proposed to detect bolt loosening in flanged pipe connections. The approach combines finite element‐based numerical modeling, experimental modal analysis, and advanced signal processing‐assisted deep learning to achieve reliable loosening detection under operational ...

Wear and contact conditions of brake pads: dynamical in situ studies of pad on glass

open access: yes, 2001
A pin-on-disc machine has been used to make in situ observations of the dynamics of the contact between brake pad materials and a glass disc, while simultaneously monitoring the friction force.

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Simulation of wear and contact pressure distribution at the pad-to-rotor interface in a disc brake using general purpose finite element analysis software

open access: yes, 2009
Passenger car disc brakes are safety-critical components whose performance depends strongly on contact conditions at the pad-to-rotor interface. The interface can be classified as a conformal dry sliding contact.

Proposals of high frictional and low aggressive abrasion (The effect of abrasive shape and disc material for degree of wear)

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
Nowadays, high frictional and low aggressive disc brake is required. For designing it, we have had to depend on empirical way because brake pad is complicated composite.

An Investigation into the Influence of the Contact Pressure Distribution at the Friction Pair Interface on Disc Brake Squeal [PDF]

open access: yes
The main purpose of this thesis is to investigate the dynamic centre of pressure during a noisy brake application. A novel technique is employed to measure the centre of pressure and contact pressure distribution between the disc/pad interfaces during ...

A Compact Annular Electrostatic Clutch Joint: Dynamic Response Modeling and Time‐Sharing Control for Underactuated Robots

open access: yesSmartBot, EarlyView.
Electrostatic clutches offer programmable variable stiffness for multi‐DOF robots, but their continuous motion is usually bottlenecked by spatial constraints and detachment delays. Here, the authors report a compact annular electrostatic clutch joint with a biphasic amplitude‐frequency modulation strategy to rapidly mitigate residual polarization ...
