First, axial stiffness of clutch cushion spring and characteristic curves of diaphragm spring were theoretically and experimentally studied. Then, model of transfer characteristics of the normal force was built, with special conscen on the abrasion of friction discs and the influence of temperature to diaphragm spring. Finally, the model was tested in practical starting for cars equipped with AMT, which showed that the starting quality was significantly improved. The experimental results showed that the proposed model was precise enough to be implemented conveniently.展开更多

Adamper has four damping columns with C-type disc springs whose laminates plate number gradually increases setby set. Compared with its counterparts, this kind of dampers has the advantages of high energy absorption andvibration damping effect, which not only can effectively reduce the vibration of the foundation of punch press,but also prevents the vibration range from increasing. Also, this kind of dampers is of low cost and convenient touse.展开更多

The lateral migration properties of many cells in Poiseuille flow have been investigated. The authors also combine the above methodology with a distributed Lagrange multiplier/fictitious domain method to simulate the interaction of cells and neutrally buoyant particles in a microchannel for studying the margination of particles.展开更多
