Hunting Stability Enhancement of a Train Bogie Employing Inerter-Based Suspension Mechanism by Yong Wang, Chenyang Hong, Haodong Meng

“…Choosing larger values of secondary suspension lateral stiffness, auxiliary spring stiffness, and inertance of the inerter can increase the linear and nonlinear critical speeds. Furthermore, the optimized M3 configuration using the NSWOA obtains the best bogie hunting stability performance, which has larger linear and nonlinear critical speeds than those of the original suspension and unoptimized M3 configuration, and the LCO amplitude of the bogie lateral motion is also smaller. …”

The inverted U-shaped relationship between judicial development and economic growth: evidence from China by Xin Zhang, Decai Tang, Xiejun Cheng

“…The findings reveal that: (1) In both the baseline regression and the System Generalized Method of Moments (SYS-GMM) model, the linear term of judicial development level (JDL) is significantly positive, while the quadratic term is significantly negative, indicating an inverted U-shaped impact of JD on China’s economic growth. (2) The threshold regression model confirms this hypothesis, as the threshold variable passes the single-threshold test, and the coefficients shift from positive to negative. (3) Employment, gross capital formation, and the marketization index positively contribute to China’s economic growth, while the full-time equivalent of R&D personnel shows no significant effect. (4) Heterogeneity analysis reveals that the inverted U-shaped structure is most pronounced in the eastern region, suggesting that its JD has entered a phase of institutional marginal inhibition. …”
