In recent years, the stability, safety and comfort of trains has received increased attention. The mechanical characteristics and differential settlement of the foundation are the main problems studied in high-speed railway research. The mechanical characteristics and differential settlement of the foundation are greatly affected by the ground treatment. Additionally, the effects of train load and earthquakes have a great impact. The dynamic action of the train will increase the vibration acceleration of the foundation and increase the cumulative deformation, and the earthquake action will affect the stability of the substructure. Earthquakes have an important practical significance for the dynamic analysis of the railway operation stage; therefore, considering the impact of earthquakes on the railway substructure stability has engineering significance. In this paper, finite element model of the CFG (Cement Fly-ash Gravel) pile + cement-soil compacted pile about composite foundation is established, and manual numerical incentive method is selected as the simulation principle. The mechanical characteristics and differential settlement of CFG pile + cement-soil compacted pile about composite foundation under train load are studied. The results show: under the train load, the neutral point of the side friction about CFG pile is located at nearly 7/8 of the pile length; the vertical dynamic stress-time history curves of the cement-soil compacted pile, CFG pile and soil between piles are all regular serrated shape, the vertical dynamic stress of CFG pile changes greatly, but the vertical dynamic stress of cement-soil compacted pile and soil between piles does not change much; the vertical displacement of CFG pile, cement-soil compacted pile and soil between piles change very little.

In this paper, thrust equations for a rubber belt CVT are derived by considering the geometry and mechanism of the mechanical actuators. In order to solve the thrust equations, an algorithm to calculate the speed ratio is suggested for the given driver speed and load torque based on the actuator characteristic equations and existing formula for the belt thrust forces. Experiments are performed to investigate the driver speed-load torque-speed ratio characteristics at a steady state. The speed and torque efficiencies are measured and used to modify the actuator equations. It is found that the modified equations well predict the steady state characteristics. In addition, the shift dynamic model for a rubber belt CVT is derived experimentally. Simulation results of the CVT shift dynamics are in good accordance with the experiments and it is noted that different coefficients are required to describe the CVT shift dynamics for the upshift and the downshift.

This manuscript work presents a comprehensive continuum model capable to investigate the effect of porosity on vibro-acoustic behaviour of functionally graded (FG) beams resting on an elastic foundation subjected to thermal and mechanical loadings. Effects of uniform temperature rise and edge compressive load on the sound radiation characteristics are studied in a comparative manner. The numerical analysis is carried out by combining finite element method with Rayleigh's integral. Detailed parametric studies are accomplished, and influences of power law index, porosity volume, porosity distribution and boundary conditions on the vibro-acoustic response characteristics are analyzed. It is found that the vibro-acoustic response under mechanical edge compression is entirely different compared to from that under the thermal load. Furthermore, nature of grading of porosity affects the sound radiation behaviour for both the loads. The proposed model can be used to obtain the suppression performance of vibration and noise FG porous beams under thermal and mechanical loads.

Blood pump analysis process includes both mechanical and bio-mechanical aspects. Since a blood pump is a mechanical device, it has to be mechanically efficient. On the other hand, blood pumps function is sensitively related to the blood recirculation; hence, bio-factors such as hemolysis and thrombosis become important. This paper numerically investigates the mechanical and bio-mechanical performances of the Rotaflow in the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO), Ventricular Assist Device(VAD), and full-load conditions. The operational conditions are defined as(400[mmHg], 5[L/min.]), (100[mmHg], 3[L/min.]), and (600[mmHg], 10[L/min.]) for ECMO, VAD, and full-load conditions, respectively. The results are presented and analyzed from the mechanical aspect via performance curves, and from bio-mechanical aspect via focusing on hemolytic characteristics. Regions of top and bottom cavities show recirculation in both ECMO and VAD condtions. In addition, Eulerian-based calculation of modified index of hemolysis(MIH) has been investigated. The results demonstrate that the VAD condition has the least risk of hemolysis among the others, while the full-load condition has the highest risk.

심해 군사 작전에서 유도체의 타격 성능 향상은 모함과 유도체가 광 케이블을 통하여 안정적인 통신을 유지함으로써 가능하다. 이 때 광 케이블은 엉킴 및 절단과 같은 풀림 불량을 방지하기 위해 보호 튜브에 의해 보호된다. 또한 보호 튜브는 전단 핀에 의해 유도체와 연결되며, 전단 핀의 파손에 의해 유도체는 보호 튜브와 분리된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 유도체 및 보호 튜브를 모델링하고, 유도체의 운동에 따른 보호 튜브의 풀림 거동을 분석하며 전단 핀에 작용하는 동적 하중을 예측한다. 유도체와 보호 튜브는 질점으로 구성하며, 일정 길이 구속으로 연결한다. 전단 핀에 작용하는 하중은 실험 결과와 비교 검증하며, 이를 바탕으로 보호 튜브의 거동을 예측한다.

The effect of wake on the performance and load of a downstream wind turbine on a floating platform is investigated with a computer simulation in this study. The floating platform consists of a square platform having a dimension of $200m{\times}200m$ with four 2 MW wind turbines installed. For the simulation, only two wind turbines in series with the wind direction were considered and the floating platform was assumed to be stationary due to its large size. Also, a commercial program based on multi-body dynamics and eddy viscosity wake model was used. It was found from simulation that the power from the downstream wind turbine could be reduced by more than 50% of the power from the upstream wind turbine. However, due to the increase in the turbulence intensity, the power is greater but more fluctuating than the power produced by a wind turbine experiencing the same wind speed without wake. Also, it was found that the load of the down stream wind turbine be comes lower than the load of the upstream wind turbine but higher than the load of a wind turbine experiencing the same wind speed without wake.

The free and live load-forced vibration behaviour of porous functionally graded (PFG) higher order nanobeams in the thermal and magnetic fields is investigated comprehensively through this work in the framework of nonlocal strain gradient theory (NLSGT). The porosity effects on the dynamic behaviour of FG nanobeams is investigated using four different porosity distribution models. These models are exploited; uniform, symmetrical, condensed upward, and condensed downward distributions. The material characteristics gradation in the thickness direction is estimated using the power-law. The magnetic field effect is incorporated using Maxwell's equations. The third order shear deformation beam theory is adopted to incorporate the shear deformation effect. The Hamilton principle is adopted to derive the coupled thermomagnetic dynamic equations of motion of the whole system and the associated boundary conditions. Navier method is used to derive the analytical solution of the governing equations. The developed methodology is verified and compared with the available results in the literature and good agreement is observed. Parametric studies are conducted to show effects of porosity parameter; porosity distribution, temperature rise, magnetic field intensity, material gradation index, non-classical parameters, and the applied moving load velocity on the vibration behavior of nanobeams. It has been showed that all the analyzed conditions have significant effects on the dynamic behavior of the nanobeams. Additionally, it has been observed that the negative effects of moving load, porosity and thermal load on the nanobeam dynamics can be reduced by the effect of the force induced from the directed magnetic field or can be kept within certain desired design limits by controlling the intensity of the magnetic field.

The aim of this study was to compare the mechanical properties of 0.6 and 0.8 mm cerclage wires with the 1.0 mm cerclage wire in the twist, single-loop, double-loop, double-wrap, and loop/twist knot methods. Six stainless steel cerclage wires of various diameters in different knot methods were tied round a customized jig mounted on a load testing machine. The initial tension, initial stiffness, and yield load were evaluated. The failure mode of each cerclage was observed. For each wire size, the double-loop, double-wrap, and loop/twist knots showed significantly greater initial stiffness, and yield load than those seen with twist and single-loop knots. The single-loop knot showed the least initial stiffness regardless of the diameter. As the cerclage wire diameter increased, the cerclage tended to show significantly greater initial stiffness, and yield load. Failure modes varied depending on the knot configurations. Single-loop knots of smaller-diameter wires less than 1 mm had similar or lower initial tension, initial stiffness, and yield load than a twist knot. Owing to the variance in mechanical properties, the clinical application of the knot type should depend on the diameter of the cerclage wire.
