A multi-perspective method for gear efficiency and contact analysis

Modern gearing applications, in particular electrification, impose new challenges in many different fields of engineering and research. In specific, new demands are imposed on gears, including higher rotational speed, lower noise acceptance, and increased efficiency, as well as increased resistance against pitting and scuffing. To meet these demands, a better understanding of gear contacts is need

Introduction

In the latter half of the 1360s, Catherine became connected to the mantellate, a group of laywomen, most of whom were financially independent widows like Birgitta. When Tommaso di Antonio da Siena, known in scholarly literature as Caffarini, instigated a hearing in Venice in 1411 as a part of his efforts to see Catherine of Siena canonized, one of his principal strategies for promoting her holines

An Innovative Method for Estimating Settling Velocity of Particles in Stormwater Using Absorbance Measurements and Modeling

The purpose of the study was to develop a simple and rapid method for measuring the average settling velocity of particles in stormwater ponds. Water samples with suspended particles were collected from the bottom of a stormwater pond in Lund, Sweden. The absorbance in various samples was measured over 24 hours (at 600 nm wavelength) and then translated into total solids concentrations. A one-dime
