A deep-sea pipeline position and attitude-measuring device based on pipeline outer circle positioning can measure the spatial relative positions of the end faces of two oil pipelines in the deep sea. This device can provide the necessary data to make...
The automatic docking system of the loading and offloading arm of a tank car is the key link to realizing the unmanned operation of tank car loading and unloading. The spatial position detection of the flange port of a tank car can guide the automati...
Undesired wall thickness distribution and flanging cracking easily occur in reverse drawing–flanging combined processes of steel spokes when improper process parameters are used. Thus, based on GRA (grey relational analysis) and FEM (finite element m...
An accurate and reliable estimation of the transformation matrix between an optical sensor and a robot is a key aspect of the hand–eye system calibration process in vision-guided robotic applications. This paper presents a novel approach to mar...
This study investigates the effectiveness of a carbon-fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) in enhancing the load-carrying capacity of a steel main girder in a metro station. The objective is to evaluate the applicability of CFRPs in sustaining increases i...
The maintenance of railway systems is critical for their safe operation. However some landscape geographical features force the track line to have sharp curves with small radii. Sharp curves are known to be the main source of wheel flange wear. The r...
Based on the engineering background of the wide-width single cable-stayed bridge, the shear lag effects of the cross-section of these bridge box girders under the action of the eccentric load were experimentally studied. The behavior of shear lag eff...
This work shows the feasibility of calibrating an industrial robot arm through an automated procedure using a new, low-cost, wireless measuring device mounted on the robot’s flange. The device consists of three digital indicators that are fixed...
In this study, we have developed an electrostatically suspended accelerometer (ESA) specifically designed for ground use. To ensure sufficient overload capacity and minimize noise resulting from high suspension voltage, we introduced a proof mass des...
In all developing countries, the application of biomedical signals has been growing, and there is a potential interest to apply it to healthcare management systems. However, with the existing infrastructure, the system will not provide high-end suppo...
In recent years, with the rapid advancement of automotive lightweight technology, the mechanical clinching process between aluminum alloy and ultra-high-strength steel sheets has received extensive attention. However, the low ductility of ultra-high-...
Hybrid structures known as timber–steel composites (TSCs) have been extensively studied due to their potential use as alternative construction materials that can satisfy demands related to sustainability. In addition to load capacity, fire resi...
The urban transport system based on trams as the basic means of transport is one of the oldest systems of human transport in urban agglomerations. A tram is a more efficient, cheaper-to-operate, and greener means of transport compared to a bus. Striv...
