Dynamics analysis of the 3-[P（RR-RRR）SR] kinematically redundant parallel mechanism by HE Qizhen, ZHANG Haifeng, CHEN Qiaohong, YE Wei

“…However, their degree of mobility (<italic>L</italic>) is greater than the number of degrees of freedom (<italic>n</italic>) of the end effector, which results in an excessive number of rigid bodies and makes dynamic modeling more difficult. Therefore, a dynamic modeling method based on the principle of virtual work was proposed for the 3-[P(RR-RRR)SR] kinematic redundant parallel mechanism, further simplifying the modeling process.MethodsFirstly, generalized variables were selected in the high-dimensional generalized space corresponding to the degree of mobility (<italic>L</italic>) of the mechanism. …”

Simulation Study of a Dual-temperature Display Cabinet with Condensing Heat Recovery by Wang Qianlong, Wang Yao, Qian Suxin, Xu Jiabo, Li Lingyun, Dou Xiaoning, Yan Gang, Yu Jianlin

“…Among all cold chain equipment, the energy consumption of an open refrigerated display case is usually high, especially the dual-temperature display cabinet, which provides simultaneous heating and cooling and consumes even more electricity. The condensing heat can be used for heating and therefore will lead to significant energy savings for the dual-temperature display cabinet. …”
