transmission towers have been subjected to alternating loads caused by the galloping of iced conductors for a long time, and their fastening bolts are easy loosen or break, which seriously threatens safe operation lines. Through transverse vibration test M20 commonly used in towers, frequency amplitude changed, change law preload bolt joints is studied. The results show that with increase initi...

Ohio State (OSU) and Stanford Universities are cooperating to understand quadruped galloping through the design of a self-contained, biomimetic, galloping robot. The leg for this quadruped was first designed at Ohio State University (OSU). A second-generation leg, with the same functional geometry, has been designed and tested at Stanford University. The objective of these tests was to determin...

The flow-induced transverse vibration of a cylinder (diameter [Formula: see text]) with an attached flexible and elastic plate high aspect ratio to its leeward side is investigated numerically at low Reynolds number 150 for range reduced velocities ( U r ) using in-house developed fluid solver based on curvilinear immersed boundary method strongly coupled open-source finite element-based struct...
