The Mathematical Model

Laterally interconnected air suspension combines the right and left air springs with pneumatic pipes, which can protect the auto-body parts from fatigue damage and increase the service life of vehicles. The mathematical model of full vehicle with laterally interconnected air suspension was established based on the analysis of its working principle, and a test bench was built. The simulation and experimental results show that, laterally interconnected air suspension can reduce the peak of dynamic body torsion load effectively, especially for steady state conditions, in which the body torsion load caused by the spring force can be nearly eliminated.

Suspension Performance

Laterally interconnected air suspension can further improve air suspension performance. This paper presents the mathematical model of full vehicle and the test bench for laterally interconnected air suspension is established. Simulation and experimental results indicate that acceleration of sprung mass is reduced by laterally interconnecting the left and right air springs, and the larger pneumatic pipe diameter is, the better damping performance of the suspension will be. Compared with the conventional air suspension, laterally interconnected air suspension brings better ride comfort and driving stability for vehicles on uneven road.

The Right

No one wants to be treated like an object, regarded as an item of property, or put up for sale. Yet many people frame personal autonomy in terms of self-ownership, representing themselves as property owners with the right to do as they wish with their bodies. Others do not use the language of property, but are similarly insistent on the rights of free individuals to decide for themselves whether to engage in commercial transactions for sex, reproduction, or organ sales. Drawing on analyses of rape, surrogacy, and markets in human organs, this book challenges notions of freedom based on ownership of our bodies and argues against the normalization of markets in bodily services and parts. The book explores the risks associated with metaphors of property and the reasons why the commodification of the body remains problematic. The book asks what is wrong with thinking of oneself as the owner of one's body? What is wrong with making our bodies available for rent or sale? What, if anything, is the difference between markets in sex, reproduction, or human body parts, and the other markets we commonly applaud? The book contends that body markets occupy the outer edges of a continuum that is, in some way, a feature of all labor markets. But it also emphasizes that we all have bodies, and considers the implications of this otherwise banal fact for equality. Bodies remind us of shared vulnerability, alerting us to the common experience of living as embodied beings in the same world. Examining the complex issue of body exceptionalism, the book demonstrates that treating the body as property makes human equality harder to comprehend.

The present work is concerned with the rolling motion of the battery pack when EV travelling on the road. First McPherson suspension system was regarded as the research object with detailed analysis of its structural features and motion characteristics. Establish the mathematical model which could apply to calculating the rolling motion of the vehicle body. Through MATLAB/Simulink simulation software, we could calculate the rolling angle on passive suspension. On this basis, assume that the battery pack mounted on the vehicle body and make it passive connection and PID connection. When the body rolls, the battery pack will produce a certain angle then. Next establish the mathematical model to summarize the relationship between the two variables. Then we set the parameters and calculate the roll angle of battery pack in both cases for comparison. Simulation results show that road irregularities will make battery rotate an angle and PID controller can effectively reduce the angle, especially angular acceleration. This paper put forward a new idea that battery is connected with body by active control on EV, and proves the superiority in reducing the rolling angle.

The paper presents the implementation of the mathematical model of cancer taking into account interference competition and the model of continuous treatment with a constant concentration of the drug in the patient's blood. The implementation was carried out using the MATLAB SimBiology application package. The principle of implementation of different stages of the course of the disease within the framework of one model is described. On the basis of the constructed models and SimBiology tools, a modification was carried out that implements the discrete administration of doses of the drug in courses and takes into account its dynamics in the body, taking into account the assumption that the drug is consumed only to suppress cancerous cells.

To determine the maximum loads acting in the rear air suspension of a truck at the early stages of design there was used computer modeling based on solving equations of dynamics of solids and implemented in the Recurdyn software. The components of the developed virtual test bench, includ-ing hinges, power connections, drive axles, a wheel-hub assembly with a wheel and a support plat-form, are considered in detail. The test bench is controlled using a mathematical model created in the environment for calculating the dynamics of rigid bodies and associated with a solid suspension model by standard software tools of the application. The test bench is controlled using a mathemati-cal model created in the environment for calculating the dynamics of rigid bodies and associated with a solid suspension model by standard software tools of the application. The use of such a test bench makes it possible to determine the loads in the hinges and power connections of the suspen-sion, to determine the mutual positions of the links for each load mode, to increase the accuracy of the calculation of loads in comparison with the flat kinematic and force calculation. The mathemati-cal model of the virtual test bench allows to carry out numerous parametric studies of the suspension without the involvement of expensive full-scale prototypes. This makes it possible at the early stages of design to determine all hazardous modes, select rational parameters of the elements, and reduce design costs. The paper shows the results of modeling the operation of a virtual test bench with an air suspen-sion in the most typical loading modes, identifying the most dangerous modes. The efficiency and adequacy of the mathematical model of the suspension was proved. Examples of determining the force in all the joints of the structure, the choice of maximum loads for design calculations when designing the air suspension of vehicle were shown.

The body of a hermit crab shows asymmetrical morphology, which may be related to utilization of the dextral shell. To examine the effect of the shell, we reared Pagurus filholi (De Man, 1887) from the glaucothoe stage to full-sized adults, in a sinistral shell, in a straight tusk shell, without a shell, and in a normal dextral shell as a control. Body parts that show the most conspicuous asymmetry, uropods, pleopods and chelipeds, were checked at the time of the shedding of exuviae during rearing. No inversion of laterality on these characters was observed. However, in crabs subjected to conditions other than a dextral shell, the otherwise rather short right uropod became somewhat extended, and in those reared in sinistral shells, the right major cheliped was more enlarged.

Amorphous alloy material has good soft magnetic properties, so it can be used for stress measurement. At first, the working principle of the stress measurement was analyzed. Secondly its output characteristic mathematical model was established by adopting multivariate linear regression analysis method, and the simulation of the mathematical model was made based on Matlab. Finally a practice measurement with Fe-base TM—M Amorphous alloy was completed. The results of the test have showed that the stress measurement method has some characteristics of being sensitiveness to measure and simple to make a testing system, and a promising method of measuring stress.

The stability of finite-amplitude weakly dispersive circularly polarized MHD wave trains with respect to oblique modulations is investigated. The mathematical model is a multi-dimensional extension of the DNLS equation. We have found that the right-hand-polarized wave, which is stable with respect to parallel modulations, is unstable with respect to certain oblique modulations for most primary wavenumbers.
