Battery thermal management and battery collision prevention are very important for the safe
operation of batteries of electric vehicles. This study proposes a novel flexible phase change …

In a companion paper (Vol. 248, Article 108227), we demonstrated the dependence of tire
parameters on the modal characteristics of a stationary tire. For a more realistic scenario …

Due to forest soil environment being short of structured terrain, research of tire-soil
interaction is critical to enhance the performance for small wheeled mobile platform in forest …

End-of-life tires (ELTs) pose a serious environmental problem today due to their great ability
to maintain their properties and not degrade under extreme conditions or over time. One of …

In this study, the effects of gamma radiation on the mechanical properties of nitrile-butadiene
rubber (NBR) samples are examined employing experimental tensile and hardness tests …

We have particularly investigated the correlation law of the effect of different carbon black
fillings on the hyper-elastic mechanical behavior of natural rubber by conducting uniaxial …

ABSTRACT Poly (ether-ether-ketone)(PEEK) is a biocompatible and implantable polymer
that is currently recognized as a bone-like material. Faced with the personalized needs of …

Cleaning the huge oil storage tanks is very costly, hazardous, and time-consuming.
However, this issue is one of the main concerns of the petroleum products storage industry …

In this work, a model for predicting the leakage rate was developed to investigate the effect
of irradiation on the sealing performance of ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) O …

Abstract Visco-Hyperelastic Damper (VHD) is a combination of a viscoelastic (VE) material
sandwiched between two metal belt rings. This VE material as the main part has a high …
