Experimental Study on the Active Earth Pressure of Narrow Cohesionless Backfills against Rigid Retaining Wall under the Translation Mode by Li-Wei Xu, Yu-Jian Lin

“…The experimental results revealed that the decrease in the length of the backfill width led to the increase in the inclined angle of the sliding surface. When the backfill width was sufficiently small, the sliding surface developed from the wall toe to another wall face, and then another sliding surface occurred as a reflection. …”

Kinematic Reliability Analysis of a 7-DOF Redundant Robot by Li Ding, Jiahui Gu, Ziyi Li, Shaopeng Kang, Rui Ma

“…Since variables in industrial robots are very small relative to their means, the motion error functions are commonly linearized by the first-order Taylor’s formula to simplify calculation, and the failure models in all directions and attitude angles are then established through the probability method over the entire input interval. …”

FDK Half-Scan with a Heuristic Weighting Scheme on a Flat Panel Detector-Based Cone Beam CT (FDKHSCW) by Dong Yang, Ruola Ning

“…However, this scheme still suffers the attenuation coefficient drop inherited with FDK when the cone angle becomes large. A new heuristic cone beam geometry-dependent weighting scheme is proposed based on the idea that there exists less redundancy for the projection data away from the central scanning plane. …”

The Inconsistency of the Algorithms of Jaro–Winkler and Needleman–Wunsch Applied to DNA Chain Similarity Results by Boris Melnikov

“…We explain that, ideally, the triangles formed by the distance matrix corresponding to each triple of distances should be acute-angled isosceles. Of course, in reality, this fact is violated, and we can determine the badness for each such triangle. …”

Power System Analysis of Moving from HVAC to HVDC in the Presence of Renewable Energy Resources by Osama Saadeh, Baher Abu Sba, Zakariya Dalala

“…The results show when deploying HVDC transmission, losses are reduced by 70% from the baseline case, in addition to better handling of contingency events and enhanced grid’s stability when examining the generator’s rotor angle and speed. Rigorous modeling and simulations of the proposed system structure show the feasibility and prove the advantages of modern HVDC systems over HVAC counterparts.…”
