Crackling noise [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2001
Crackling noise arises when a system responds to changing external conditions through discrete, impulsive events spanning a broad range of sizes. A wide variety of physical systems exhibiting crackling noise have been studied, from earthquakes on faults to paper crumpling. Because these systems exhibit regular behavior over many decades of sizes, their

Tomography by Noise [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2014
We present an efficient and robust method for the reconstruction of photon number distributions by using solely thermal noise as a probe. The method uses a minimal number of pre-calibrated quantum devices, only one on/off single-photon detector is sufficient.

Performance research and safety verification of compound structure air spring

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2020
To further reduce the vertical stiffness of the air spring, appropriately reduce its lateral stiffness to attenuate the transmission of vibration along the lateral and longitudinal directions, a compound structure air spring (CSAS) was designed.

Preparation of polyethylene glycol brush grafted from the surface of nitrile butadiene rubber with excellent tribological performance under aqueous lubrication

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2022
The water-lubricated bearing will be in a state of poor lubrication when marine stern shafts operate under low speed and heavy load conditions, which could cause severe wear and vibration, endangering the stealth performance of underwater vehicles.

Tacticity in chiral phononic crystals

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Here, the authors study the influence of tacticity on the dynamic behaviour of chiral structured periodic media comprising rotational inertia elements. This opens the way towards new mechanisms for wave control by exploiting spin-spin coupling mechanism.

Axial and lateral stiffness of spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes under internal pressure

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2021
Fiber reinforced rubber pipes are widely used to transport fluid at locations requiring flexible connections in pipeline systems. The spherical self-balancing fiber reinforced rubber pipes with low stiffness are drawing attention because of their ...

Model-based design of a novel modular mounting system: Light, compact, and efficient

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2022
Two-stage mounting systems applied in ships are expected to be light in weight, compact in installation space, and efficient in vibration isolation performance at the same time, which largely increases the engineering complexity.

Ultrasonic signal processing techniques for Pipeline: A review

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2019
Monitoring pipeline wall is an important issue in oil and gas industries. Over time, the defect can occur in the pipeline and can impact surrounding population, environment and may result in injuries or fatalities.

Inhibitory “noise” [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2010
Cortical neurons in vivo may operate in high-conductance states, in which the major part of the neuron's input conductance is due to synaptic activity, sometimes several-fold larger than the resting conductance. We examine here the contribution of inhibition in such high-conductance states.

An integrated structure of air spring for ships and its strength characteristics

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2023
The increasing demand for the impact resistance of ships entails the excellent impact resistance and deformability of air spring (AS) for ships under high internal pressure.
