Note that the maintenance force. (See Figure 6.) When the vehicle brakes are inspection procedure will depend on the type of rotor applied, air enters the service brake chamber through installed. the supply port, applying pressure within the diaphragm. The pressure expands the diaphragm — applying force to, and moving, the pressure plate and push rod forward. The push rod acts against a cup in the internal lever which Bendix® Splined Disc® Rotor pivots on an eccentric bearing moving the bridge. Moving against a return spring, the bridge transfers the motion to two threaded tubes and tappets, which move the inner Conventional brake pad. The inner brake pad (from its normal position Rotor of having a running clearance between it and the rotor) moves into contact with the brake rotor. Further movement of the bridge forces the caliper — sliding on two stationary guide pins — away from the rotor. That, in turn, pulls the outer brake pad into the rotor. The clamping action of the brake pads on the rotor applies braking force to the wheel.

At the eastern boundary of the Jiloca graben, the Concud fault has moved since mid Pliocene times at an average rate of 0.07-0.08 mm/y, while rates from 0.08 to 0.33 mm/y have been calculated using distinct stratigraphic markers of Middle to Late Pleistocene age. A total of nine paleoseisms associated to this fault have been identified between 74.5 and 15 ka BP, with interseismic periods ranging from 4 to 11 ka, estimated coseismic displacements from 0.6 to 2.7 m, and potential magnitudes close to 6.8. The other master faults of the Jiloca graben (Ca- lamocha and Sierra Palomera faults) have also evidence of Pliocene to Late Pleistocene displacement, with average slip rates of 0.06 and 0.11-0.15 mm/y, respectively.

  • What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims
    What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims Over the past 100 years, tires, and the wheels that support them, have gone through significant changes as a result of technical innovations in design, technology and materials. No single factor affects the handling and safety of a car’s ride more than the tire and the wheel it is mounted on and how the two work together as a unit. One nagging question that has been the subject of a lot of anecdotal evidence, speculation, and even more widespread rumor is whether rims designed for Bias ply tires can handle the stresses placed on them by Radial ply tires. And the answer is - it depends. It depends on how the rim was originally designed and built as well as whether the rim has few enough cycles on it, and how it has been driven. But most importantly it depends upon the construction of the tire and how it transmits the vehicle's load to where the rubber meets the road. In this paper, we want to educate you on the facts - not the wives tales or just plain bad information - about how Bias and Radial tires differ in working with the rim to provide a safe ride. Why is there a possible rim concern between Radial and Bias Tires? The fitting of radial tires, to wheels and rims originally designed for bias tires, is an application that may result in rim durability issues. Even same-sized bias and radial tires stress a rim differently, despite their nearly identical dimensions.

  • U.S. Natural Climate Solutions Accelerator Finalist: Forests of the Future: Replanting Burn Scars for Carbon Sequestration and Ecosystem Services
    U.S. Natural Climate Solutions Accelerator Finalist: Forests of the Future: Replanting Burn Scars for Carbon Sequestration and Ecosystem Services. Collaboration between Coalitions and Collaboratives, Inc. (COCO) and RenewWest. Forests of the Future initiative aims to reforest post-fire landscapes that are not naturally recovering, and to develop an investable carbon-focused market mechanism and a “carbon reforestation fund” model to bring additional capital for reforestation and carbon sequestration. By quantifying tree growth into a carbon offset equivalent, an additional source of value is created for forest owners, which can be brought for sale to carbon offset buyers in the Western Climate Initiative (WCI) compliance marketplace in California and voluntary carbon markets. Conservation co-benefits include habitat restoration promoting biodiversity, improving soil health and preventing erosion, maintaining watershed health through improved stream clarity and temperature. Economic co-benefits include improving value of degraded lands, re-establishing working lands to sustainable Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified wood production, and creating a source of employment for rural communities engaged in a deforestation-free timber supply chain. Investors seeking low-correlated, attractive risk-adjusted prospects, can consider a fund of combined projects, which aims to provide predictable long-term market-rate returns and quantifiable environmental and social impacts. How it works: The pilot project will be implemented in Modoc County, California on an 11,516- acre parcel of land owned by Collins Timber, which is not naturally recovering after it burned in the 2012 Barry Point Fire. Following the 30-year project period, Collins Timber will retain the ability to use the lands for sustainable, mixed-age selective-harvest forestry, certified by FSC.

The eddy current brake has the advantage of being able to take a high current density compared to the other application because this brake is used for applying brakes to the rolling stock for a shorter amount of time. Also, this braking system has the merit of being able to take a high current density at low speed rather than at high speed, because the heat generated by the low speed operation is less than that of the high speed operation. This paper also presents a method of improving the output torque of the eddy current brake at low speed operation through a change of the winding as well as the basic design.
