Sentence examples for pin joint from inspiring English sources

A microscopic view of a pin joint created from a 2-D laminate process.

For both interfaces, replacements for the existing pin joint interfaces were designed using two forms of kinematic couplings-a three-pin coupling and a canoe-ball coupling.

One PZT patch, acting as an actuator, generates a swept sine wave that propagates through the contact area of the pin joint interface and the other one, acting as a sensor, detected the response signal.

Subset Simulation, which is a promising and efficient technique to qualify probabilistic uncertainties propagation, is utilized to perform a probabilistic analysis on the bearing strength of a composite pin joint.

Compliant links are modelled using the pseudo-rigid body model (PRBM), in which a single compliant link is divided into two rigid links connected by a pin joint and a torsional spring at the joint.

Ref. [27] gives a number of reasons why the pin joint assumption does not hold for real towers.

We investigate this by modeling planar arches with torsion and translational springs at the pin joints anchored to the ground.

The resulting student projects ranged in scale and function, from pin joints that could only be seen with a microscope to large retractable tables.

In the Figure the links 2, 3, 4, and 5 are connected by pin joints at O, A, B, and C. Joint O is fixed to a support, while joints A, B, and C are free to move.

The IPC sandwich panels that compose the truss girders, are connected by steel elements, which allow a rapid assembly by pin joints.

This paper deals with the singularities which occur on the compatibility paths of single degree of freedom finite mechanisms consisting of rigid bars and pin joints.
