In this paper, a modular designed automatic screw tightening shaft system, which is based on enhanced variable gain PID control, is proposed. Designed for the autonomous screw tightening operation, the screw tightening shaft enjoys huge potential for industry application. The screw tightening shaft and the screw tightening process are both mathematically modeled as an uncertain feedback system ...

It is generally accepted that nuclei degrade in developing hair shafts but the point at which such occurs has not been investigated. The fate of mitochondria in the keratinizing hair shaft has been less clear. This study uses transmission electron microscopy to investigate when nuclei and mitochondria are no longer visible in the developing hair shaft. Serial sections were obtained from anagen ...

In this paper we investigate the mechanism of internal erosion caused in the right abutment of the Shahghasem dam’s spillway. Shahghasem dam is an earthen dam located in Yasouj, in southwest of Iran. A significant hole and pipe have been observed in the corner of the right abutment from upstream view. The foundation is Marlstone, which has low cohesion and susceptible for internal erosion and p...

The aim of this paper is to determine the stress levels at the end of a long slender shaft such as a drilling assembly used in the oil or gas industry using a mathematical model in real-time. The torsional deflection experienced by this type of drilling shaft (about 4 KM length and 20 cm diameter hollow shaft with a thickness of 1 cm) can only be determined using a distributed modeling techniqu...

Over the past decades, significant advances have been achieved in hydraulic structures for dams, namely water release such as spillway weirs, chutes, and energy dissipators. This editorial presents a brief overview of eleven papers this Special Issue, Advances Spillway Hydraulics: From Theory to Practice, frames them current research trends. Issue explores following topics: inlet structures, tr...

This device makes two shafts rotating in synchronized angular displacement. The sensors are potentiometers. The device is designed for use in a driving simulator. The first shaft is connected to a steering wheel and controlled by a driver so this shaft is the master, the second shaft is connected to the computer software that displays the surrounding sceneries, and therefore this shaft is the f...

This paper present a fixture design system of eccentric shaft for ginning machine.. Fixture is required in various industries according to their application. Designer design fixture according to dimension required by industry to fulfill our production tar gate. In traditional manufacturing process performing operation on eccentric shaft is critical. so holding a work piece in proper position du...
