Ultrasonic rock sampling using longitudinal–torsional vibrations

open access: yesUltrasonics, 2010
In the last years several European and US space projects have been focused on the development of surface rovers for planetary missions, such as ExoMars and Mars Exploration Rovers. The main function of these vehicles consists of moving across planet surfaces, and drilling and retrieving samples for in situ analysis.

Vibration Reduction of Pneumatic Rock Drill for Rock Face Stabilisation Sector

open access: yesICHAV 2023, 2023
Workers in the rock face stabilisation sector are exposed to high levels of vibration from pneumatic rock drills, which can lead to vibration injuries. The work situation is also ergonomically challenging since the work often is performed on steep cliffs with heavy equipment and a substantial degree of dust exposure.

Whole Body Vibration Analysis of Baby Hammock

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Studies have been carried on the effect of rocking on a baby and concluded that baby sleeps easier while being rocked. In Malaysia, as in many Southeast Asian Countries, it is common to put babies to sleep in a baby hammock.

Propane Dehydrogenation Catalyzed by ZSM-5 Zeolites. A Mechanistic Study Based on the Selective Energy Transfer (SET) Theory

open access: yesMolecules, 2015
Experimentally determined activation energies of propane dehydrogenation catalyzed by ZSM-5 zeolites have been used to test the SET theory. The basis of this theory is that the catalyst system transfers vibrational energy via a resonance process to a ...

Ring Laser Gyro G-Sensitive Misalignment Calibration in Linear Vibration Environments

open access: yesSensors, 2018
The ring laser gyro (RLG) dither axis will bend and exhibit errors due to the specific forces acting on the instrument, which are known as g-sensitive misalignments of the gyros.

Understanding intracranial aneurysm sounds via high-fidelity fluid-structure-interaction modelling

open access: yesCommunications Medicine, 2023
Background Since the 1960s, the origins of intracranial aneurysm bruits and musical murmurs have been debated, with proposed mechanisms ranging from self-excitation (i.e., resonance) by stable pulsatile flow, to vibration caused by unstable (laminar ...
