Study on Model and Tests of Sheet Pile Wall with a Relieving Platform by Ming Zhang, Wei Wang, Ronghua Hu, Ziyi Wang

“…Therefore, the Earth pressure behind the bottom wall is larger than the calculated value by the Rankine theory. Finally, the displacement of the rib pillars is greater than the calculated results using the finite difference method and exceeds the standard requirements, owing to the failure of the retaining wall, and the unloading board needs to be constructed to improve the retaining wall’s behaviour. …”

The mathematical model of engagement and analytical description of tooth profile of waveform edge kinematic reducer by M. A. Jasem, P. Y. Krauinsh

“…The problem of creating a waveform edge kinematical reducer with multi-pair gearing brings to the fore a range of issues in the field of geometric-kinematic gearing theory, which are considered in this work. The synthesis of multi-pair gearing for a waveform edge kinematical reducer, which ensures the constancy of their transfer function, provides for: development of a mathematical model of gearing taking into account the peculiarities of the interaction of teeth during special-spherical motion; description of the profile of the teeth by a system of equations for a spherical surface and for a normal section of teeth for internal gearing; identification with the help of the MathCAD 2010 Professional program of a mathematical experiment and determination of the area of existence of 100 % multi-pair mating of teeth by comparing the shape of their profile with the nature of the analytical function of multi-pair engagement.…”
