Abstract:
Abstract In this paper, the stretching chain clamp model in the film synchronous biaxial stretching equipment is simplified. And we establish the kinematic model. The variation rule of kinematic parameters of each joint of the chain clamp during the film stretching process is obtained. We use ADAMS software to inverse the trajectory of the stretching chain clamp to get the theoretical track and optimize the stretching rate of the stretching chain clamp. We compare the theoretical track with the initial stretching track model, optimize of stretching system structure, and achieve reliability and

Hydraulic stretch forming is a very important technology. Punch press has achieved multi-station automatic processing in the press area, which has greatly improved the efficiency. However, the main domestic stretching machine is single-stretching hydraulic machine at present. Compared with punch press, hydraulic stretching machines take less space and have better security, but they make less efficiency and have lower degree of automation. Hence, in order to take the advantage of hydraulic stretching machines and enhance the automation level, studies on multi-position automatic stretching machi

Recent research has revealed the reasons for this success, notably population growth in some territories, economic prosperity and urban development, made possible through investment in agriculture and military infrastructure on a scale unparalleled in the late antique world.

Abstract:
Filamentous actin (F-actin) is a stiff biopolymer that is tightly crosslinked in vivo by actin-binding proteins (ABPs) to form stiff bundles that form major constituents of a multitude of slender cytoskeletal processes including stereocilia, filopodia, microvilli, neurosensory bristles, cytoskeletal stress fibers, and the acrosomal process of sperm cells (Fig. 1). The mechanical properties of these cytoskeletal processes play key roles in a broad range of cellular functions — the bending stiffness of stereocilia mediates the mechanochemical transduction of mechanical stimuli such as acoustic w

Abstract:
Developing a proper local formability failure criterion is the key to the successful prediction of the local formability of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS) in computer simulations. Shear fracture, which refers to the fracture occurred in the die radius when a sheet metal is drawn over a small die radius, often occurs earlier than predicted by the conventional forming limit curve (FLC). As shown in a previous study using a laboratory Stretch-Forming Simulator (SFS), shear fracture depends not only on the radius-to-thickness (R/T) ratio but also on the tension/stretch level applied to the s

Abstract:
Employment charters are voluntary initiatives that attempt to describe ‘good’ employment practices and to engage and recognise those employers that meet or aspire to meet these practices. They can operate at different spatial scales, ranging from international and national accreditation schemes to local charters that focus on engaging employers in specific regions or cities. The latter are the focus of this briefing paper. At least six city-regions in England had local employment charters at the time of our research. These areas alone account for over a fifth (21 per cent) of the resident work
