Dynamic Meshing Characteristic Analysis of Wind Power Planetary Gear Train by Yang Haiwan, Mutellip Ahmat, Zhao Yang

“…The dynamic meshing study is essential for the wind turbine which works in a harsh condition,especially,the gear train will be destructed by the time-varying load.Taking a wind turbine helical planetary gear train as study object,considering the influence of a variety of clearance and friction on meshing,a FEM model is built.By using the nonlinear dynamics method,the variation law of the gear tooth root bending stresses in the processing of the planet gear meshing with the sun gear or the internal gear is studied,the influence of the rotating speed on the meshing impact stresses is analyzed.Though the analyzing,with the speed increasing,the meshing stresses curve could get ahead,the impact stress of gear box and drive shaft will increase,while the curve of the impact stress are overall forward.However,the impact stress can’t always increase with the impact speed increasing.…”

Gait Analysis and Trajectory Planning of Quadruped Wheel-legged Mobile Robot by Qing Li, Liting Zhao, Yuxi Feng, Rongshuai Liu, Peng Zhang

“…A quadruped wheel-legged mobile robot based on 2-UPS/（S+SPR）R closed loop parallel mechanism is designed for the complex surface environment of aliens planet. The optimal gait is obtained by comparing the stability margin and the barycenter adjustment of the robot in the process of motion， the stability of the robot in the static gait is measured by ZMP method， and the trajectory of the foot end is planned by the improved compound cycloid method. …”

'Green' strategies and approaches. A contribution from the off-site and upcycling of discarded shipping containers by Francesca Scalisi, Cesare Sposito

“…The Earth is in a vulnerable state that most scholars attribute to a model of infinite growth on a planet with limited resources. Taking into account this critical environmental context, the paper wants to stimulate new practices for the building industry by suggesting a systemic vision that simultaneously uses multiple sustainable and circular approaches and allows eliminating scraps and waste, by combining traditional and innovative techniques and technologies. …”

Mach Number Scaling of Foreshock Magnetic Fluctuations at Quasi-parallel Bow Shocks and Their Role in Magnetospheric Driving Throughout the Solar System by Brandon L. Burkholder, Li-Jen Chen, Katariina Nykyri, Norberto Romanelli, Menelaos Sarantos, Dave Sibeck, Jaye Verniero, Gina A. DiBraccio, Daniel Gershman, Martin Lindberg, Erin Kincade

“…However, the solar wind flow is highly irregular, and on top of solar cycle variations these values for average M _A at each planet do not capture extreme events. Statistical analysis of OMNIWeb observations from 2015 to 2023 shows that sustained (30 minutes or more) high M _A (30–100) occurs at Earth about once a month. …”

Le concept de less good idea face aux patrimoines controversés by Monica Heintz

“…In August 2022, at the Centre for the Less Good Idea in Johannesburg, I took part in a creative residency that explored photographs and moving images captured during Father Aupiais’s mission to Dahomey in 1930, which are part of the Archives of the Planet at the Musée Albert Kahn. On that occasion, based on ten photographs, I wrote and directed a children’s tale, to be performed by three South African artists and a Beninese musician with the help of a Pepper’s ghost setup. …”

Cultural environments with more-than-human perspectives. Prototyping through research and training by Marie Davidová, Shany Barath, Susannah Dickinson

“…We argue that to achieve social justice, we must also reach environmental justice and become in synergy with the planet, with Gaia. This ethos is presented in multiple case studies demonstrating the relationships between designed and existing socio and environmental systems, evaluating whether our actions on the Earth and use of non-renewable resources are sustainably innovative and what this means for more inclusive practice, the academy and our pedagogical foci and design methods.   …”
