Flow Induced Vibration and Energy Extraction of an Equilateral Triangle Prism at Different System Damping Ratios

open access: yesEnergies, 2016
The flow induced vibration and energy extraction of an equilateral triangle prism elastically mounted in a water channel are investigated experimentally at different system damping ratios ζtotal with the constant oscillating mass Mosc and system ...

Interaction Between Vortex‐Induced Vibrations and Base Vibrations in Piezoelectric Harvesters

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the present era, powering sensors using green energy is a significant challenge. One promising solution for the power supply of small sensors relies on piezoelectric energy harvesters excited by vortex‐induced vibrations (VIVs) generated by wind.

Heart Rate as an Indicator of Stress in Gotland's Russ Horses

open access: yesZoo Biology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Animal welfare concerns both the physical and mental wellbeing of animals so the assessment of animals kept in captivity, for example zoos, is important and necessary both legally and ethically. Good welfare is especially vital when breeding endangered species as stress impairs reproductive investment.

A theoretical model of rain–wind–induced in-plane galloping on overhead transmission tower-lines system

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
Rain–wind–induced galloping phenomenon often occurs on overhead transmission tower-lines system, just as icing galloping and vortex-excited vibration; this kind of instability oscillation can cause power-line breakage or tower failure.

Modelling the Four‐Dimensional Power Line Sag Dynamics by Point Signature in Time‐Series Synthetic‐Aperture Radar Images

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Power lines in synthetic‐aperture radar (SAR) images are reflected as point signatures, which fluctuate annually in both the azimuth and range directions. A novel framework is proposed in this paper to evaluate the four‐dimensional dynamic status of power line sag using those point signatures in time‐series SAR images.

A Contrast on Conductor Galloping Amplitude Calculated by Three Mathematical Models with Different DOFs

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2014
It is pivotal to find an effective mathematical model revealing the galloping mechanism. And it is important to compare the difference between the existing mathematical models on the conductor galloping.

Recent Progress of Potentiating Immune Checkpoint Blockade with External Stimuli—an Industry Perspective

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2020
The past decade has seen the materialization of immune checkpoint blockade as an emerging approach to cancer treatment. However, the overall response and patient survival are still modest. Various efforts to study the “cancer immunogram” have highlighted

Hysteresis phenomena in transverse galloping of triangular cross-section bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Transverse galloping is a type of aeroelastic instability characterised by large amplitude, low frequency oscillation of a structure in the direction normal to the mean wind direction.
