Investigation on Shear Wave Velocity and Triaxial Mechanical Performance of Tailings Core from Tailings Dam by Pengfei Luo

“…The exponential fitting could characterize the quantitative function relation between the static pressure coefficient and the confining pressure. (3) The cohesion and internal friction angle of the tailings sample were 20 kPa and 41°, respectively, and the logarithmic fitting could better characterize the quantitative relation between shear peak strength and confining pressure. …”

Active Pointing Compensation of a HTS Multibeam Antenna by Xudong Wang, Pengpeng Wang

“…Thermal distortion of the antenna under a typical in orbit thermal distribution causes the reflector to rotate about y axis with an pointing error of 0.005°, active compensation is conducted, and the final compensation results show that with an optimal voltage of 432 V, pointing error of the antenna is greatly compensated, and the depointing angle is corrected to be 0.00004°.…”
