A prototype with a bias unit, a carrying device and a friction adjusting device was fabricated and an experimental system was built to evaluate the performance in terms of output displacement, angular velocity, driving moment and bearing capacity.
The friction-period adjusted morbidity loss was estimated by multiplying the unadjusted productivity loss (human capital approach) by the friction period and then dividing this product by the age and sex specific duration of incapacity spells, which was extracted from the ISAT dataset.
The interface friction angle is adjusted to maintain the pipe roughness at a value of 0.8 of the soil friction angle throughout the analysis.
The friction angle was adjusted by trial-and-error until the back-tilted portion at the top of the slope best matched the post-slide LiDAR surface.
The interest of such films whose features (hardness and low dry friction coefficient) can be adjusted is underlined.
In addition, other processing and design parameters such as the initial dimensions, final desired shape, blank holder forces, and friction can be quickly adjusted to assess the forming feasibility.
Through use of a distribution fitting method it was found that the shear friction angle could be adjusted to a normal probability density function while cohesion follows the log-normal density function.
Walls with appropriately adjusted slip-friction connectors are highly ductile, are efficient dissipaters of seismic energy, and have a tendency to self-centre after an earthquake.
A novel optimal motion controller for scan tracking measurement is designed and realized, which automatically predicts the surface features (including geometric feature and friction feature) and adjusts the scan tracking velocity in advance.
It has semi-elliptical leaf springs with friction shock absorbers; damping can be adjusted by turning thumbscrews that put pressure on small discs of leather.
The torque at drill-bit was modeled considering a non-regularized dry friction model, with parameters that were adjusted using empirical data proposed in literature.
