Assessment of the necessity of cooling of the Stirling engine expansion piston [PDF]
Heat balance of the Stirling engine expansion piston is investigated. This balance considers heat flows that are applied to the expansion piston from outside parts, generated by friction in the piston-liner contact zone, and rejected to the cooling ...

This work presents a tip‐growing eversion robot that uses phase‐changing alloys for reversible stiffening and localized actuation, achieving 43× stiffness modulation, 15× force amplification, and segmental steering. The system enables precise navigation and force delivery in constrained, tortuous pathways.

ABSTRACT The chemical system Li/Ti/P has previously been subject to intensive investigation. However, reliable structural data for the reported phases have remained elusive. Motivated by the growing interest in phosphorus‐based lithium‐ion conductors, we have reinvestigated the synthesis, crystal structure, and physical properties of Li8TiP4.

Experimental study of the features of the working processes of low-speed intensively cooled long-stroke piston compressor stages [PDF]
Unique elements of the working processes of a low-speed piston compressor, not typical for high-speed piston machines, are considered. It has been experimentally proven that under operating modes with an elevated gas temperature at the inlet of a low ...
