Nicotine preloading for smoking cessation: the Preloading RCT [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Technology Assessment, 2018
BackgroundNicotine preloading means using nicotine replacement therapy prior to a quit date while smoking normally. The aim is to reduce the drive to smoke, thereby reducing cravings for smoking after quit day, which are the main cause of early relapse.

FISHER MATRIX PRELOADED — FISHER4CAST [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Modern Physics D, 2011
The Fisher Matrix is the backbone of modern cosmological forecasting. We describe the Fisher4Cast software: A general-purpose, easy-to-use, Fisher Matrix framework. It is open source, rigorously designed and tested and includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) with automated LATEX file creation capability and point-and-click Fisher ellipse generation.

Analyzing the Fretting Fatigue of Bolt Joints by Experiments and Finite Element Analysis

open access: yesLubricants, 2023
The appearance of fretting fatigue cracks in bolted sheets limits their lifetime. Furthermore, repairing these failures requires much effort due to needing to replace the components instead of replacing just the bolt.

A Study of Preload Detection Technology in Suspension Bridge Cable Clamp Bolts Based on the Pull-Out Method

open access: yesBuildings
The pull-out method is a simple and effective method for detecting the preload of suspension bridge cable clamp bolts. However, research on the pull-out method is currently limited.

Investigation of non-uniform preload effect on stiffness behavior of angular contact ball bearings

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2017
Preloading is an effective way to maintain good performance of angular contact ball bearings. Traditionally, the rigid and constant preload are applied by uniform approaches on the bearing system.

Influence of Aerodynamic Preloads and Clearance on the Dynamic Performance and Stability Characteristic of the Bump-Type Foil Air Bearing

open access: yesMachines, 2021
The dry lubricated bump-type foil air bearing enables a carrying load capacity due to a pressure build up in a convergent air film. Since the air bearing provides low power dissipation above the lift-off speed and the flexible foil provides an adaptivity

A Study of the Nonlinear Attenuation Behavior of Preload in the Bolt Fastening Process for Offshore Wind Turbine Blades Using Ultrasonic Technology

open access: yesEnergies
The attenuation of bolt preload is a critical factor leading to bolt fatigue failure, whereas the study of the nonlinear attenuation behavior of preload and its mechanism during installation is an inevitable challenge in engineering practice.

Research on preload relaxation for composite pre-tightened tooth connections

open access: yesScience and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2019
Preload is the primary reason why pre-tightened tooth connections (PTTC) can transfer relatively large loads. However, creep of the composite would cause the preload relaxation, resulting in reducing bearing capacity of the connection.
