The AGV (automated guided vehicle) was introduced in UK in 1953 for transporting. But nowadays, due to their high efficiency, flexibility, reliability, safety and system scalability, they are used in various application in industries. In brief, the AGV robot is a system which typically made up of vehicle chassis, embedded controller, motors, drivers, navigation and collision avoidance sensors, ...

the load transfer mechanisms of cable bolts differ from those for normal rebar bolts. the cable bolts used in mines are basically steel strands with different constructions depending on the number of wires or elements and the way they are laid. tendon bolts (rebar and cable) are normally evaluated for their strength and load transfer properties. the tendon strength can be evaluated by the tensi...

High-efficiency power transfer at a long distance can be efficiently established using resonance-based wireless techniques. In contrast to the conventional two-coil-based inductive links, this paper presents a magnetically coupled fully planar four-coil printed spiral resonator-based wireless power-transfer system that compensates the adverse effect of low coupling and improves efficiency by us...

Steady-state bacterial photosynthesis is modelled as cyclic chemical reaction and is examined with respect to overall efficiency, power transfer efficiency, and entropy production. A nonlinear flux-force relationship is assumed. The simplest two-state kinetic model bears complete analogy with the performance of an ideal (zero ohmic resistance of the P-N junction) solar cell. In both cases power...

ABSTRACT: Stress transfer is of paramount importance in composite materials, since load must be transferred from the matrix to the reinforcement element as efficiently as possible in order to fully realize the potential of the latter. In addition, the benefits obtained from a given reinforcement are conventionally measured in terms of its volume fraction, so efficient usage of the occupied volu...

a mathematical model of a continuous reheating furnace has been developed to identify the design and operating parameters that significantly affect furnace performance. in this study, the furnace is modeled 3 dimensionally and themonte carlomethod is used to find the overall absorption factor. the overall absorption factor is then used to calculate the energy balance for furnace walls, the gas,...

Basic understanding of the process of coolant heat transfer inside an engine is an indispensable prerequisite to devise an infallible cooling strategy. Coolant flow and its heat transfer affect the cooling efficiency, thermal load of heated components, and thermal efficiency of a diesel engine. An efficient approach to studying cooling system for diesel engine is a 3D computational fluid dynami...

The void at the bottom of a cement concrete slab is common problem composite pavements. It great significance to evaluate spring stiffness, size, and soil base elastic modulus timely accurately for maintenance guarantee pavement performance. In this paper, joint modeled load transfer mechanism realized by using groups simulating dowels that connect two slabs joint. A database established based ...
