The article presents the results of an experimental study and analytical evaluation calculations to check service life increase durability needle bearing piston head connecting rod a transport diesel engine. primary reasons for violation nominal operation main units this mechanism have been established. Corresponding recommendations are proposed carrying out accelerated tests durability, reduci...

In an effort to present users with an increasing amount of information, many industries including automotive and aerospace are adopting flat panel touch displays as a user interface. These interfaces are becoming popular due to their reconfigurability so that control and display functions can be embedded in multiple layers or menus. However, one of the disadvantages of this approach is the need...

a project was established to develop a procedure for the selection, design, installation, test and evaluation of mass-flow rate measurement systems for root crop harvesting and to assess the consistency and precision of the weighing systems incorporated into crop feed arrangements in both laboratory and field studies. studies were conducted to evaluate conveyor belt weighing systems using an ex...

The unique working mechanics of roller-type peristaltic pumps have allowed their applications to span a wide variety sectors and industries. pump's accurate dosing hydrostatic capabilities can theoretically allow for the pump be used hydraulic actuation (as an electro-hydrostatic actuator) low pressure applications. This however requires control its flow rate. associated pulsations will also im...

The design of a novel prismatic drive is reported in this paper. This transmission is based on Slide-O-Cam, a cam mechanism with multiple rollers mounted on a common translating follower. The design of Slide-O-Cam was reported elsewhere. This drive thus provides pure-rolling motion, thereby reducing the friction of rack-and-pinions and linear drives. Such properties can be used to design new tr...
