Evaluation of process causes and influences of residual stress on gear distortion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In the automotive industry, heat treatment of components is implicitly related to distortion. This phenomenon is particularly obvious in the case of gears because of their typical and precise geometry.

The rain feels different under the same umbrella: Experiences with poverty across LGBTQ subgroups

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Population‐based survey data have demonstrated that LGBTQ communities report varying rates of economic insecurity, yet very little research directly assesses how pathways into and experiences with poverty look different among subgroups at the intersections of sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI).

Analysis of the Synchronized Locking Dynamic Characteristics of a Dual-Sidestay Main Landing Gear Retraction Mechanism

open access: yesAerospace
As an advanced design technology for large wide-body airliners, the three-dimensional (3D) dual-sidestay (DSS) landing gear retraction mechanism can share the ground loads transferred by the landing gear, reducing the load on the wings.

Shimmy in a nonlinear model of an aircraft nose landing gear with non-zero rake angle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This work concentrates on the lateral oscillations in vehicles, also called shimmy, with a particular emphasis on aircraft. A mathematical model of a nose landing gear is discussed with geometric detail that has been mostly neglected in the past research.

Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Exposure Profiles and Their Predictors in a Study of US Volunteer Firefighters

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Industrial Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Firefighters may experience occupational exposure to per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Volunteer firefighters make up 65% of the US fire service, but their serum PFAS profiles have not been well characterized. This study aims to (1) describe PFAS serum profiles among US volunteer firefighters from 9 states enrolled in ...

Australia's Migration Strategy: An Effective Response to Migrant Worker Exploitation?

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A series of publicised migrant worker injuries and deaths has drawn attention to the issue of migrant worker exploitation (MWE) in Australia. In response, the Australian Government has included ‘Tackling Worker Exploitation’ as a key area of its Migration Strategy which it introduced in 2023. However, it is unclear how effective the Strategy’s

A New Paradigm for Understanding the Rheology and Processability of Poly(p‐Phenylene Terephthalamide) Liquid‐Crystalline Solutions

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Kevlar is traditionally modeled as a rigid‐rod polymer, yet rheological behavior deviates from this assumption. The review introduces a novel “twist‐tie” entanglement theory for aramid polymer chains in the nematic liquid crystal state, providing a molecular explanation for deviations from rigid‐rod models. Understanding twist‐tie entanglement dynamics

Multibody Analysis of Lever-Spring Landing Gear with Elastomer Shock Absorbers: Modelling, Simulations and Drop Tests

open access: yesAerospace
This study investigates the ground reaction force of lever-spring landing gear (LSLG) equipped with compressible elastomer shock absorbers (ESA) during the landing process.

T. rex cognition was T. rex‐like—A critical outlook on diverging views of the neurocognitive evolution in dinosaurs

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract A recent debate has emerged between Caspar et al. (2024) and Herculano‐Houzel (2023) on inferring extinct dinosaur cognition by estimating brain neuron counts. While thought‐provoking, the discussion largely overlooks the function of cognition, as well as partly neglects the difficulties involved in estimating neuron numbers, which according ...

Analysis of manufacturing costs for conventional gear manufacturing processes: a case study of a spur engine gear [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper presents an in-depth manufacturing cost analysis of conventional wrought steel gear manufacturing and a case study of a spur engine gear is evaluated by real usage data, including a benchmark in gear manufacturing cost calculations between the
