Infrastructure construction is society's cornerstone and economics' catalyst. Therefore, improving mobile machinery's efficiency and reducing their cost of use have enormous economic benefits in the vast and growing construction market. In this thesis, I envision a novel concept smart working site to increase productivity through fleet management from multiple aspects and with Artificial Intell…
This reprint focuses on the hot issue of bearing lubrication and thermal analysis, and brings together many cutting-edge studies, such as bearing multi-body dynamics, bearing tribology, new lubrication and heat dissipation structures, bearing self-lubricating materials, thermal analysis of bearing assembly process, bearing service state prediction, etc. The purpose of this reprint is to explore…
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researcher…
The Institution’s International Conference on Turbochargers and Turbocharging (Twickenham, London, UK, 16-17 May 2023) returns to address the latest advances, research and developments in turbocharging system designs and boosting solutions. This volume presents a peer-reviewed collection of papers which will address current and novel turbocharging system choices and components with a renewed …
The subject of this open-access publication is the impact of connected and automated vehicles on the European city and the conditions under which this technology can make a positive contribution to urban development. The authors put forward two theses that have received little attention in the scientific discourse so far: Connected and automated vehicles will not become fully established in all…
Dieses Buch beschreibt Maßnahmen zur Sicherstellung der Bearbeitungsgenauigkeit unter thermisch instationären Bedingungen bei gesteigerter Produktivität, ohne zusätzliche Energie für die Temperierung aufzuwenden. Es werden Forschungsergebnisse zu thermischen Einflüssen sowie deren Beeinflussung und Beherrschung vorgestellt. Die dargestellten Entwicklungsarbeiten wurden im Rahmen des Sonde…
This book challenges many assumptions commonly used in structural topology optimization. These assumptions include: (1) to find the unique and globally optimal solution—the ‘best’ design, (2) under prescribed support conditions, (3) for given loading conditions, (4) within a predetermined design domain, and (5) without considering the designer’s aesthetic preferences. Through a systemat…
This open access book serves as a comprehensive exploration of Alternating Current Field Measurement (ACFM), encompassing the foundational theory crucial for subsequent chapters, as well as the design and testing of ACFM probes, instruments, and software. Providing guidance and serving as a reference for ACFM instrument development, the text delves into visualization research in ACFM, offering …
This open access book shows some of the highlights presented at the XV Ibero-American Congress of Mechanical Engineering. The papers explore the forefront of Mechanical Engineering, containing research into fluid mechanics, energy systems, tribology, materials science, robotics, mechatronics, biomechanics, instrumentation, thermodynamics, and mechanical sustainability.
The turbulent/non-turbulent interface (TNTI) is an irregular boundary between turbulent and irrotational flow, which widely exists in various flow types, such as turbulent boundary layer, combustion flame front, turbulent patches in atmosphere and ocean, pollutant dispersion, etc. Due to its importance in affecting the intermittent characteristic and the mixing and entertainment process of turb…
