from about 20 degrees C. above the ambient temperature to more than 300 degrees C. above the ambient temperature in about one-half mile of travel; under further travel the bearing melts and falls off the axle; the wheels fall off; and the truck falls to the ground, uncoupling the car ...
so doing something new and different, reinventing myself and working with new people is just the passport to the amazing world that is the movies. —
To relate the change of the vehicle direction in the XY-plane, we first derive the relation between the steering angle α and the steering radius R of the front axle, see Fig. 3. By geometric considerations, we obtain:(5)R=a2+a1cosαsinα We further relate longitudinal acceleration ax′...
such as machine learning. However, despite the plethora of algorithms designed to detect and classify track irregularities and wheel out-of-roundness, they often fall short when put to the test in real-world scenarios. These
24 HOURS CENTENARY – PERPETUAL INNOVATION ⎮ The founding fathers of the 24 Hours of Le Mans envisioned the race as a real-life test bed for production vehicles, spawning countless inventions. Two in particular had a global impact on road safety once
A vehicle wheel bearing apparatus has an outer member formed with a body mounting flange on its outer circumferential surface. The body mounting flange is to be mounted on a knuckle of the vehicle. Th
- correlating the appearance of said spikes on the signals from more than one sensors to the vehicle's velocity and the distance between the axle's monitored, in order to detect defects on the rail-track; - storing said ON and OFF intervals measurements and/or "Jitter Parameter" values for...
In this study, pressure, temperature, and internal acceleration sensors were installed inside the rubber tires of Busan Line 4 railway vehicles. Measurement equipment was installed on the undercarriage of the vehicles to collect operational data, including vehicle axle acceleration, vehicle speed, and ...
Researchers around the world are working to find solutions for efficient traction development to prevent soil compaction and promote energy conservation. All the attempts that were made for the purpose are adhesion-based and focused on increasing the wheel-terrain contact area and normal axle loads ...
Severe wheel defects cause high dynamical load, which can damage the railway track and shorten the life span of railway bridges [1]. There are several types of wheel defects and wear mechanisms. An overview of different wheel tread irregularities is given in [2]. Prominent examples are ...
