Therefore, this study proposes a simple and reliable model based on multiple linear regression analysis of polypropylene fibrous nonwoven samples. The samples were tested using equipment designed according to ISO standards 9053-1. The model selection was performed using stepwise techniques to identify the most relevant predictors. The final model, along with its coefficients and goodness of fit statistics, is presented and discussed.

Different configurations were analyzed: unstrengthened masonry and retrofitted masonry, in both undamaged and damaged conditions. Damage was accomplished by testing the building under lateral cyclic loading, to reproduce the seismic effects. The strengthening technique (CRM – Composite Reinforced Mortar) consisted in plastering the outer facades by means of a 30 mm tick mortar coating reinforced with glass-fiber polymer meshes and in introducing transversal connectors injected in the masonry. The mode shapes and natural vibrating frequencies were analyzed and compared, evidencing the effects of damage and of retrofitting. A finite element numerical model was developed, to perform eigenvalue analysis and calibrate the equivalent masonry stiffness for the different configurations.","PeriodicalId":262664,"journal":{"name":"Vibroengineering PROCEDIA","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136128999","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the main mechanism of grease lubrication, grease partitioning can explore the aging law of grease and effectively identify whether the grease fails. In this paper, 7014 aerospace grease was selected as the research object and accelerated test was conducted by high temperature thermal oxygen. The combination of grease separation degree and mass change rate was selected for comprehensive characterization of grease separation performance. The results show that the grease partitioning degree has a significant decreasing trend; the quality change has also decreased and the degradation trajectory is similar to the partitioning degree; it is inferred that the main reason for the decrease of grease partitioning performance may be the loss of base oil and the change of thickener fiber structure.","PeriodicalId":262664,"journal":{"name":"Vibroengineering PROCEDIA","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136129003","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compared to full-scale experiments, in this regard, Finite Element (FE) numerical tools can offer a robust support in design. Besides, many primary and secondary façade components should be properly taken into account, because responsible of possible major approximations in their expected mechanical interactions. In this paper, the in-plane seismic response of glass curtain walls is investigated with geometrically accurate and detailed (“MREF”) or simplified and efficient (“MSIMP”) numerical models.

Finally, the removal efficiency was determined by Knott's reagent photometry.

The experiment found that when the ultrasonic power is 400 W, the action time is 2 h, and the oxygen concentration of water is 23.8 mg/L, the efficiency of removing ammonia-nitrogen in water is about 65 %.

To determine the current motion gait of the human body, the hip and knee joint angles, and plantar pressure values are sensed and analyzed, which are then used to actuate the exoskeleton to provide support for the hip and knee joints. The dual motion systems-the exoskeleton drive system and the human lower limb motion system-are established in this control approach. Without the need to first learn the user's gait, the assistance of the exoskeleton is provided by the motions of the human movement system and is sufficiently flexible to account for changes in step length and walking speed as the user moves through the gait cycle. Throughout this process, the exoskeleton system avoids providing power, providing the freedom to walk and stop in the course of our daily lives.","PeriodicalId":262664,"journal":{"name":"Vibroengineering PROCEDIA","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136128735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Simulation results using the MBS model show that inter-vehicle damper devised in high-speed train can obviously reduce lateral vibrations at the connecting passage of adjacent compartments without increasing the wheelset lateral shift force and derailment coefficient, thus it can improve overal ride comfort of the CRH train. In addition, inter-vehicle damper can resist severe lateral shocks and guarantee safety when two high-speed trains pass each other. The developed MBS model of the CRH train is an accurate and useful platform, the obtained results in this study are also valuable in following vibration analysis and inter-vehicle suspension optimization of the CRH train.","PeriodicalId":262664,"journal":{"name":"Vibroengineering PROCEDIA","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136128991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
