Ultrasonic characterisation of an interference fit

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a spring model to determine maps of contact stiffness from interference fit ultrasonic reflection data, and a calibration procedure was then used to determine the pressure.

Finite Element Analysis of Space Frame Structures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present necessary formulations for finite element analysis of space frames, including the formulation of an interface beam element to take into account soil-beam interactions in the analysis.

On the kern of a general cross section

TL;DR: In this article, the kern of a cross section is defined as the region in which a compressive point load may be applied without producing any tensile stress on the cross section.

Using maximum likelihood to calibrate a six-DOF force/torque sensor

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented a new six-DOF force/torque sensor and its calibration method, which apply the method of so-called maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) to determine and identify the parameters related to applied torques/forces towards resulted deformations at varied locations of the sensor structure.
