An elastic rod in frictional contact with a rigid cylinder

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Tomohiko Sano, Paul Grandgeorge

We investigate the load transmission along an elastic rod of finite cross-section in contact with a rigid cylinder, as system often referred to as the generalized capstan problem. In the presence of friction, the idealized classic capstan equation predicts ...

Effect of spilling from adjacent orifices on the velocity field and pressures in front of needle stop-logs

Giovanni De Cesare, Azin Amini, Cédric Bron, Ivan Stojnic

In this study, the effect of spilling from neighboring sluice gates on stop-logs was experimentally investigated on a 1:65 physical scale model comprised of a double arch dam, a reservoir area, six spillway orifices and two stop-logs. Two types of measurem ...

Evaluation of the muscular activity duration in shoulders with rotator cuff tear using inertial sensors and electromyography

Kamiar Aminian, Alain Farron, Cyntia Duc

Shoulder disorders, including rotator cuff tears, affect the shoulder function and result in adapted muscle activation. Although these adaptations have been studied in controlled conditions, free-living activities have not been investigated. Based on the k ...

Model for fretting wear of brittle ceramics

Abhishek Tewari

In selecting and designing materials for certain engineering applications, the resistance to material damage or removal of material from contacting surfaces in relative motion is an important factor. To determine these properties, laboratory tests are rout ...

The RNA degradosome: life in the fast lane of adaptive molecular evolution

In Escherichia coli, the multi-enzyme RNA degradosome contributes to the global, posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. The degradosome components are recognized through natively unstructured "microdomains" comprising as few as 15-40 amino acid ...
