Heavy vehicle pitch dynamics and suspension tuning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The influence of suspension tuning of passenger cars on bounce and pitch ride performance has been explored in a number of studies, while only minimal efforts have been made for establishing similar rules for heavy vehicles.

Exploring Cultural and Individual Differences in the Hierarchy of Moral Concern: Evidence From Student Samples Across 41 Cultural Groups

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many important historical and contemporary ethical debates (e.g., on slavery, abortion and environmental protection) reflect disagreements about what we owe to different groups of individuals. Recent work in moral psychology has uncovered a seemingly replicable hierarchy of moral concern, but these studies were conducted in a few countries ...

Veterinarian and breeder perspectives surrounding ovum pick‐up and intracytoplasmic sperm injection in mares: A survey study

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background There is an ethical debate about the application of ovum pick‐up (OPU) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in mares. Objectives To survey the opinions of equine veterinarians and breeders of sport horses on the ethics of using OPU–ICSI in mares. Study Design Cross‐sectional descriptive study.

Validation of a novel instrumented hoof boot with pressure sensors using force plate gait kinetics in horses at walk and trot

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Force plates (FP) are considered the gold standard for quantitative equine gait evaluation but are limited to experimental use. An instrumented hoof boot (IHB) with pressure sensors and an inertial measurement unit would allow clinicians to objectively assess kinetic parameters and gait symmetry.

The ride comfort vs. handling compromise for off-road vehicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
When designing vehicle suspension systems, it is well-known that spring and damper characteristics required for good handling on a vehicle are not the same as those required for good ride comfort.

Assemblages of care: Moral economies, classed labor, and affective exhaustion among Karachi's working middle‐class women

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how working middle‐class women in Karachi navigate the intersecting burdens of care and self‐care within the affective, infrastructural, and ideological conditions of urban precarity. Drawing on twelve semi‐structured interviews conducted across homes, workplaces, and cafés in the city, seven of which anchor the primary ...

Triboelectric nanogenerators for vehicle intelligent cockpits

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Converting mechanical stimuli from drivers and vehicle motion into electrical signals, triboelectric nanogenerators provide promising interfaces toward passive, flexible, distributed and intelligent sensing for next‐generation automotive cockpits to support three core functional dimensions: driver state monitoring, vehicle state monitoring, and human ...

From Physiology to Bioheat Simulation: A Data‐Driven Framework for Core Temperature Initialization

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Accurate initialization of core body temperature is a critical yet often overlooked component of bioheat transfer models, particularly when such models are applied to heterogeneous populations and real‐world environmental conditions. Conventional bioheat simulations typically rely on fixed or idealized core body temperature values derived from

Effectiveness of immersive virtual reality‐based interventions for alleviating peri‐ and post‐procedural pain and anxiety in gynecologic settings: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials

open access: yesInternational Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐pharmacological and complementary therapeutic, notably immersive virtual reality‐based interventions (IVR), could alleviate pain and anxiety associated with gynecologic procedures. Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of IVR in reducing peri‐ and post‐procedural pain and anxiety in gynecologic procedures.

Elevator dynamic monitoring and early warning system based on machine learning algorithm

open access: yesIET Networks, EarlyView., 2022
In order to monitor and warn the elevator dynamics, in this work, the machine learning algorithm is introduced, and the particle swarm algorithm is used to perfect the model. The model is optimised, and the experimental comparison shows that the optimisation of the model parameters can further improve the accuracy of the elevator load prediction. Then,
