Impact of the technical condition of main pumps on fuel consumption in a hydraulic excavator

open access: yesГорные науки и технологии
During the operation of hydraulic excavators, the technical condition of pumps deteriorates due to wear, leading to increased internal clearances, fluid leakage, a reduction in volumetric efficiency, and higher energy losses, ultimately resulting in ...

Large-eddy simulations of turbulent flow for grid-to-rod fretting in nuclear reactors

open access: yes, 2013
The grid-to-rod fretting (GTRF) problem in pressurized water reactors is a flow-induced vibration problem that results in wear and failure of the fuel rods in nuclear assemblies.

Porous Iridium Oxide Inverse Opal Catalysts Enable Efficient PEM Water Electrolysis

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Porous iridium‐based inverse opal (IrOx‐IO) structures are introduced as high‐performance, unsupported PEM‐WE anode catalysts. Their electrochemical behavior is analyzed through porosity/surface area tuning, voltage breakdown, and circuit modeling.

Contemporary oasis hydraulics: An open window on the sociology of the population of medieval Saharan cities

open access: yesAfriques
This paper compares two fields of analysis: on the one hand, hydrosociology, theorized by geographers and anthropologists, which conceptualizes the uses and landscapes of water as a reflection of the social organization of the group; on the other hand ...

Autonomous Hydrogel Actuators Programmed by Endogenous Biochemical Logic for Dual‐Stage Morphing and Drug Release

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐printed BSA–PEGDA bilayer actuator performs biochemical logic, bending autonomously in acid and releasing its drug payload only when both acid and pepsin are present. This dual‐stage, enzyme‐gated mechanism enables autonomous catch‐and‐release motion and controlled gastric drug delivery, representing a programmable soft material powered by ...

Optimal design of slippers in a radial piston pump (Experiment and simulation under concentric conditions)

open access: yesMechanical Engineering Journal
Mechanical components must be designed to prevent wear and seizure. In hydraulic piston pumps, abnormal friction between the piston bore and cylinder as well as bearings can cause failure or breakdown.

Tidal hydrology in Pegasus Bay [PDF]

open access: yes, 1967
Changes in the geomorphology of the coastal plain river mouths of Pegasus Bay over the last 100 years are considered. Comment is also made on estuarine sediment and flow, the difficulty of measuring these two quantities and the need to treat the ...
