This paper presents analytical models, as well as numerical and experimental verification of intrinsic dissipation due to thermoelastic loss in tuning-fork resonator. The thermoelastic analytical governing equations are created for resonator vibrating at drive-mode and sense-mode, and thermoelastic vibration field quantities are deduced. Moreover, the theoretical values are verified that coinci...

a linear superposition method was used for modeling the time history of the production blast vibrations and optimizing the blast sequence to reduce vibration levels in sar-cheshmeh copper mine, kerman, iran. a single-hole blast for modeling and two double-hole blasts with time delays of 25 and 65 ms between two holes for modeling validation were carried out. the generated vibrations were measur...

Vibration is an excitatory stimulus for both vestibular and proprioceptive afferents. Vibration applied either to the skull or to the neck muscles of subjects after unilateral vestibular deafferentation induces nystagmus and a shift of the subjective visual horizontal. Previous studies have ascribed these effects to vibratory stimulation of neck muscle proprioceptors. Using scleral search coils...

Compared to other orthodontic acceleration methods such as drug, electric current, and laser, vibratory loading is less invasive easier use. But the optimal duration for load application has not been determined, nor can alveolar bone parameters be predicted after application. Therefore, this work examined mechanism of vibration-accelerated reconstruction established a numerical model simulating...
