We conducted by using both the rigid-body model and the compliance model to evaluate the handling performance of the EV in impulse steering tests conducted at vehicle speeds of 40, 60 and 80 km h⁻¹, respectively.

A novel transmission with multistage face gears as the core component achieves variable speeds via differential gear shifting. Single/multistage coupled vibration models have been established in this study to derive the coupled vibration equation in order to accurately solve the load distribution between the meshing teeth and the vibration shock between the shifting stages in the transmission process, improve the transmission smoothness of the face gears during the shifting processing, suppress.

Contact-impact is a particularly salient phenomenon which plays an important role pervasive in many applications involving the design and analysis of mechanical system, especially for the key parts or structures made of composite materials. The oblique contact-impact of the composite structural bars with a solid flat surface has been analyzed theoretically and experimentally. As the proportion of Babbitt increases, the composite structural bar presents a characteristic of ease of deflection.

The spherical flexible joint is used to connect the Tension Leg Platform to the seabed. It can provide low shear stiffness while bearing high compression force. So the research on the stiffness of flexible joint is necessary. The linear rotational stiffness of the flexible joint is formulated and FEM is used to verify the analytical solution. The increase of Poisson's ratio of the rubber layers will enhance the vertical compression stiffness but barely have effect on the rotational stiffness.

This article addresses the thermoelastic interaction due to inclined load on a homogeneous isotropic half-space in context of two-temperature generalized theory of thermoelasticity with dual-phase-lags. The governing equations are solved by using the normal mode analysis. The variations of the displacement, stress, conductive temperature, and thermodynamic temperature distributions with the horizontal distance have been shown graphically.
