This article dealt with influence of four factors (cutting speed, feed rate, reverse feed and eccentricity) on cylindricty, surface roughness and real diameter of reamed hole.
In this paper, several performance indexes of IWM-EV are considered by linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controller, such us vehicle body acceleration, airgap eccentricity, SRM stator acceleration, suspension dynamic deflections, and tyre deformation.
7 studied the relationship between pre-stressed concrete beam and eccentricity. As shown in Fig.
For higher value of relief track depth ratio, the attitude angle first increases with eccentricity ratio and then decreases.
Figure 5 demonstrates the effect of journal slenderness ratio on the dimensionless midplane pressure profile at small eccentricity ratios and moderate Reynolds numbers.
When the seal teeth number is constant, that is, the depth-width ratio of seal cavity is kept constant, [beta] increases with the eccentricity increasing.
Figures 7 to 10 show thermal patterns for [T.sub.a]=33[degrees]C, E=0.48 x [10.sup.-3] gm/[cm.sup.2]min case I, eccentricity of breast core [d.sub.1]=0.0030 and for the stages II, III, IV and V of breast development respectively.
11 shows the behavior of the shape and duration of the probing signal traveling along the cable line: curve 1--cable with characteristic impedance of 57.5 [ohm] (measured parameters); curve 2--cable with wave resistance 48 [ohm] (eccentricity between the conductor and insulation); curve 3--cable with wave resistance of 60 [ohm] and the isolation parameters: [R.sub.ins] = [10.sup.11] [ohm] x M, tg[delta]=2 x [10.sup.-2] (water tree-ings).
The eccentricity is defined as the difference between the centre of mass (CM) and the centre of rigidity (CR).
For a vertex v in a connected graph G, the eccentricity e(v) of v is the distance between v and a vertex farthest from v in G.
