Nonlinear isolation performance of 6 × 19 wire rope of different lengths under compression

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2021
Stainless steel wire rope isolator is widely used in engineering. To optimize design of the isolator, loading, and unloading characteristics of the 6 × 19 6 mm wire rope under compression are investigated. Ropes of different lengths are tested to get the

Warmed intravenous fluid administration attenuated a reduction in body temperature in anaesthetised horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Peri‐anaesthetic hypothermia is a well‐documented complication of general anaesthesia and is associated with prolonged recovery, impaired wound healing, and delayed coagulation. Fluid warmers can be used to mitigate heat loss, but there is little evidence supporting their effectiveness in equine anaesthesia.

Posterolateral corner reconstruction using hamstrings grafts—A comparative biomechanical study of three techniques

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare three posterolateral corner (PLC) reconstruction techniques—the popliteofibular loop (PFLoop), the modified LaPrade (LP) and modified Arciero (AR) techniques—in restoring knee laxity in varus (VR), external tibial rotation (ER) and posterior tibial translation (PTT). Methods Nine cadaveric knees were subjected to 8Nm VR, 5Nm

Designing ZV and ZVD Input Shapers Using the Designed Fixed Output Response Method to Suppress Residual Vibration of Overhead Crane Systems With Trolley Traveling and Payload Hoisting

International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Classical Zero Vibration (ZV) and Zero Vibration and Derivative (ZVD) input shapers are designed around a fixed nominal natural frequency and cannot accommodate the time‐varying dynamics introduced when an overhead crane simultaneously travels and hoists a payload.

Leaf heat tolerance in a native Californian shrub responds in expected and unexpected ways to differences in range, season, and sunlight exposure

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Earth's ecosystems are experiencing wide‐ranging impacts from global climate change, including increased average and extreme temperatures. These temperature shifts can drastically affect plant physiology, threatening the future of even common plant species. Here, we focus on photosynthetic function in a native Southern California shrub species.

Design and Development of a Modular Ballistic Pendulum for High‐Impulse Measurement in Contact and Near‐Field Explosive Loading

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Measuring impulse from explosive charges in contact and near‐field configurations presents practical challenges due to wide variation in impulse magnitude. Ballistic pendula are widely used for impulse measurement, but many existing designs are limited to narrow operating envelopes or are poorly suited to repeated contact testing and tamped ...
