Experimental investigation of drag loss and plate separation behavior of wet clutches under external forces

open access: yesResults in Engineering
Understanding the drag loss behavior of wet clutches is crucial for the development of low-loss clutch systems. For non-horizontal installation positions and non-stationary applications, external forces caused by the inclination or vehicle dynamics act ...

Gear Lubrication and Cooling Experiment and Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes
A gear tooth temperature analysis was performed using a finite element method combined with a calculated heat input, a calculated oil jet impingement depth, and estimated heat transfer coefficients for the different parts of the gear tooth that are oil ...

Maneuverable Multilegged Locomotion through Anisotropically Arranged Soft Backbones in a Single‐Actuator Modular Miniature Robot

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A modular eight‐legged robot exploits anisotropically oriented soft I‐beam backbones to transmit vibration from a single unbalanced‐mass actuator, producing frequency‐dependent multimodal gaits. A pseudo‐rigid‐body model enables high‐fidelity MuJoCo simulation, while Bayesian parameter identification and reinforcement learning yield robust control ...

Diatom‐Inspired 1D Immobile Robots Capable of 2D Collective Mobility

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a diatom‐inspired robotic system that explores group coordination through limited physical interactions. The researchers tune groups of Barbots, simple robotic agents that possess neither individual mobility nor explicit communication capabilities, to achieve complex and adaptive collaboration based on environmental light.

Electric Drive Units: A Set-Up for Investigating Function, Efficiency, and Dynamics

open access: yesVehicles
High-speed electric drive units promise improved power density and, theoretically, driving range of battery electric vehicles. An essential step of the development process is extensive testing of the drive unit on a test rig.

Kinematic precision of gear trains [PDF]

open access: yes
Kinematic precision is affected by errors which are the result of either intentional adjustments or accidental defects in manufacturing and assembly of gear trains. A method for the determination of kinematic precision of gear trains is described.

The role of Research‐Practice Ambassadors in strengthening socially just and equitable partnership processes

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Research‐Practice Partnerships seek to close the research‐practice gap through developing collaborative, authentic partnerships between researchers and community members. Our team has leveraged Research‐Practice Ambassadors to support socially just and equitable partnership processes in schools.
