Y, B, and C relate to the axis names most manufacturers use on CNC tube benders. LRA stands for length, rotation, and angle, ...

Abstract: Self-bending (or self-accelerating) and nondiffracting acoustic beams, such as Airy beams, have the potential to focus around obstacles that are directly in the beam path. Here, we ...

Abstract: Modern cyber–physical systems (CPSs) and IoT-enabled smart factories rely on human–robot collaboration (HRC) to combine human intuition and robotic precision in real time. Balancing such HRC ...

This work involved the structural optimization of precast concrete rigid frames with semi-rigid beam-to-column connections. To this end, several frames were simulated numerically using the Finite ...

Asphalt pavements in coastal hot and humid regions are perennially affected by salt-induced degradation, which exacerbates moisture damage and aging processes in asphalt mixtures. To enhance the ...

Indirect tensile strength is not usually used for concrete mixtures proportioning and its technological control; flexural strength tests under third point loads arrangement are the pattern for such ...
