Optimization of Damper Top Mount Characteristics to Improve Vehicle Ride Comfort and Harshness

open access: yesShock and Vibration, 2014
A novel optimization technique for optimizing the damper top mount characteristics to improve vehicle ride comfort and harshness is developed. The proposed optimization technique employs a new combined objective function based on ride comfort, harshness,

Rimplasty: An Arthroscopic Technique for Patients With Isolated Patellar Chondromalacia Based on Autologous Matrix‐induced Chondrogenesis+ and Limited Trochleoplasty

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior knee pain is a common problem that can be difficult to treat. One potential cause of these symptoms is supratrochlear rim, which has been linked to isolated patellar chondromalacia in patients with patella alta and without any history of patellar dislocation or subluxation.

Shape‐directed formation of T8/T6 Zn–siloxane clusters and their deep‐UV shielding properties

open access: yesBulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
The shape and conformational characteristics of silane substituents direct the assembly of Zn–siloxane clusters into conventional T8 or rare T6 siloxane frameworks. Non‐planar cyclic substituents selectively promote T6 formation through steric effects, while the resulting clusters exhibit deep‐ultraviolet absorption and can be processed into ...

Barriers and Enablers of Circular Economy in Electrical and Electronic Equipment: A Systematic Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rapid technological change, shorter lifecycles and rising demand for electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) are increasing waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) and emphasise the need for a circular economy. This paper identifies barriers and enablers of the circular transition in EEE and outlines interventions.
