Making full use of knowledge in manufacturing tolerance analysis combined with the beta distribution model is introduced and applied. The use of beta distribution reflects fully actual capabilities in manufacture. Concurrent tolerance design is a manufacturing environment oriented design process paying more attention to influences or restraints on product design caused by such factors as the manufacturing process, machine capabilities, economy in manufacturing, etc. Process environment oriented tolerance analysis is more flexible making the designed results more practical and effective.展开更多

Dynamics analyses for different total heights of Corfu bell-towers and according to the seismic data of this region are carried out. A diagram of displacements is determined. The impact of the percentages of damping in the distribution of displacements is examined.展开更多

Humbert says Lolita has a precursor that is Annabel. That is pure love between children. Pure love is innocent, so Humbert wants to say he is not to blame. His relation with Lolita is pure love. In addition, Edgar Allan Poe wrote a poem about Annabel Lee. And Humbert wants to say that it is the poem that makes him love Lolita.展开更多
