Wear mechanisms in polyoxymethylene spur gears

open access: yesWear, 2019
Abstract The interaction of a polymer-steel spur gear pair is naturally prone to cause wear of the softer polymer material. Experimental equipment was therefore designed and constructed to run a polymer-steel spur gear pair with sufficiently accurate instrumentation such that the load and speed could be measured under a range of operating conditions.

A nano-lubrication solution for high-speed heavy-loaded spur gears and stiffness modelling

open access: yesApplied Mathematical Modelling, 2019
Nanofluids have excellent mechanical and thermal properties. Serious wear and high temperatures hamper the development of high-speed gear drives, and the application of nanofluids to gear lubrication is a potential solution.

Design of a Novel Gripping Mechanism and Dual Manipulator Robotic System for Apple Harvesting Using Tractor

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The architecture of apple orchards can be converted to easier operation by implementing the use of a low‐cost, tractor‐mounted, dual manipulator based on a robotic harvesting system with lower degrees of freedom (DoF). To accurately avoid injuries by detecting apples, an efferent, real‐time vision system that includes a new gripping mechanism ...

Calculation and Analysis of TVMS Considering Profile Shifts and Surface Wear Evolution Process of Spur Gear

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering
Profile shift is a highly effective technique for optimizing the performance of spur gear transmission systems. However, tooth surface wear is inevitable during gear meshing due to inadequate lubrication and long-term operation.

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...

A Scenario Tool for Sustainability Transformation in Fisheries and Beyond

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The urgency to find sustainable management solutions intensifies with increasing natural resource scarcity. Resource sectors are usually characterized by diverse resource users. We developed a structured scenario tool designed to quantitatively assess policy options for achieving sustainability, accounting for ecological, economic and ...
