Dynamic analysis of slider-crank mechanism with clearance fault [PDF]

open access: yesVibroengineering Procedia, 2019
In this paper, the dynamic behavior of the slider-crank mechanism with clearance fault is investigated. The revolute joint with clearance is equivalent to a virtual massless rod, and then the dynamic equation of the crank slider mechanism with clearance is established by the Lagrangian method. In addition, a three-dimensional dynamic model of the crank

Linking individual behaviour to community scale patterns in fungi [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The fungi comprise a separate kingdom of life and epitomise the indeterminate growth form. Very little is known about the factors that influence the nature of fungal diversity and the link between individual behaviour and the structure and function of ...

Mathematical modeling kinematics of double toggle jaw crusher

open access: yesГірничі, будівельні, дорожні та меліоративні машини, 2023
In this work, the problem of modeling the kinematic parameters of a jaw crusher with a simple movement of the jaw was consider. The dynamic model of the jaw crusher was consider as a flat articulated-lever closed mechanism. The crushing mechanism of the
