Generation of wear and airborne sound is inevitable during friction processes. Previously, the relationship between the wear and the sound has only been determined experimentally. Analytical models do exist, but they remain rare and do not fully account for the wear and the airborne sound generation especially at the asperitical level. This model attempts to fill the gap by providing a quantifiable relationship at an asperitical level between the wear generated and the sound emitted in a simple pin-on-disc setup. The model was validated for three materials (iron, mild steel, and aluminium T351) under two loads (10 N and 20 N) at 300 RPM. The theoretical model agrees with the experimental results with a varying error of 10 to 15% error in iron and aluminium. However, a larger error is observed in the case of mild steel. The model could be refined to improve the accuracy as it assumes point impacts on the asperities where a distributed impact would be more suitable. Furthermore, the pin is assumed a single asperity to simplify the model at the expense of accuracy. Overall, the experimental results are in good correlation with the theoretical results and this model provides the first step in quantifying wear using only the recorded sound pressure.

The generation of wear and airborne noise is inevitable in the mechanical contacts of the machine components. This paper addresses the effectiveness of the airborne noise data in estimating the wear on a disc under multi-contact conditions. A pin-on-disc rig was employed to study the role of noise parameters on the evolution of the wear area. When a pin slides on the disc, the airborne noise is generated and subsequently a sound signal is obtained. These signals, for various sets of experiments, were recorded using a digital microphone. A Matlab code was developed and employed to estimate the noise parameters from the recorded sound. Noise parameters including values of voltage RMS, noise counts and amplitudes of dominant frequencies were used to analyse the variation in the disc wear at different time intervals. These parameters were found to be effective in the determination of the wear damage evaluation under different loads without lubrication.

The principle of holes leaking create ultrasonic and the relationship between the sound pressure and the pressure or hole size was discussed in this paper. A method of leak hole estimation by the relationship and a design of gas leak ultrasonic testing system were presented. Experimental results which obtained by the gas leak ultrasonic testing system indicated the method is stable, reliable and tallying with the actual results. The method can estimate the leak hole quickly and exactly. Compared with the method of fitting the Reynolds number and amount of leakage, the accuracy has improved to some extent, and it has certain significance in the fast detection of the leak hole size. It could be popularized in the gas leak ultrasonic testing system.

This paper proposes an algorithm to compute the sensitivity of the Radial-Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) due to the errors of the inputs and others parameters of the net works. For simplicity and practicality, all inputs and weights are assumed to be independent and identically distributed (i.i.d) with uniform distribution. A number of simulations are conducted and the good agreement between the experimental results and the theoretical results verifies the reliability and feasibility of the proposed algorithm. The relationship between the sensitivity of RBFNN and input error and the perturbation of others parameters is given.

This paper develops a new type of flexible finger employing the pneumatic flexible joints base on the modular design concept. In this work, the mathematical model of the grasping force of the flexible finger is derived and analyzed on the relationship between the air pressure and the grasping force. Further the grasping force experiments of finger using dynamometer and acquire the normal pressure of the finger with different combinations ventilation of joints are conducted, Also, the experimental results are compared with the theoretical results, which confirm the validity of the presented model.

The effect of the interface slip is neglected in most studies on calculating deflection of sandwich beams. By taking a simply supported sandwich beams under uniformly distributed loads as an example, simplified analytical models of the interface slip are established, and corresponding clculation formulas of interface slip between steel panels and concrete and section curvatures are derived. The formula for deflection of sandwich beams are then presented. This formula reflects the relationship of influence each other between the interface slip and deflection.

How does disease threat influence sexual attitudes and behaviors? Although research on the influence of disease threat on social behavior has grown considerably, the relationship between perceived disease threat and sexual attitudes remains unclear. The current preregistered study (analyzed N = 510), investigated how experimental reminders of disease threat influence attitudes and anticipated future behaviors pertaining to short-term sexual relationships, using an ecologically valid disease prime. The central preregistered prediction was that experimental manipulation of disease threat would lead to less favorable attitudes and inclinations toward sexual promiscuity. Results were consistent with this preregistered prediction, relative to both a neutral control condition and a non-disease threat condition. These experimental results were buttressed by the finding that dispositional variation in worry about disease threat predicted less favorable attitudes and inclinations toward short-term sexual relationships. This study represents the first preregistered investigation of the implications of acute disease threat for sexual attitudes.

A series of steel models having single nozzles radially and nonradially attached to a spherical shell is presently being examined by means of strain gages. Parameters being studied are nozzle dimensions, length of internal nozzle protrusions, and angles of attachment. The loads are internal pressure and axial thrust and moment loadings on the nozzle. This paper presents both experimental and theoretical results from six of the configurations having radially attached nozzles for which the sphere dimensions are equal and the outside diameter of the attached nozzle is constant. In some instances the nozzle protrudes through the vessel.
