法官事实认定面孔融合下的有限能动——以民事庭审为视角

本文以两个案情相似但结果迥异的民事案例为切入点,通过对笔录的分析,勾勒出我国基层法官在民事庭审中对事实认定呈现的两种面孔——回应型和能动型;同时,两位法官均不是纯粹的回应型和能动型面孔,又恰恰反映出当下我国基层法院法官在民事庭审事实认定中出现的两种面孔融合趋势,即法官的有限能动面孔。本文通过访谈方式、运用数据分析、成本分析及价值权衡等研究方法,分析两种面孔之成因并指出其融合之必要性,最后得出完善我国法官释明权制度,确立有限能动庭审面孔的结论。

Distribution and Dissipation of Braking Power of Wet Multidisc Brake

To study the distribution and dissipation of braking power of wet multidisc brake and determine thermal load and thermal flux distribution between mated discs, the concept of distributing brake power four times was put forward. The third and the fourth distribution of brake power were calculated by using finite element(FE) software ANSYS. The third and the fourth distribution of wet multidisc brake are mainly related to material characteristics of discs during emergency braking, while most of the braking power is carried off during continuous braking. Basis is provided for further analysis of disc failure and applicability of different friction materials.

A new hybrid energy absorption mechanism subjected to axial loading

This study aims to introduce a novel hybrid design with a combination of two more common mechanisms for improving the capacity of systems in absorbing the kinetic energy of moving vehicles or devices. This new model consists of two individual mechanisms, i.e., expansion of a circular tube accompanied by crushing of an inner tube, which dissipate the energy through friction, plastic deformations and failures of inner tube. This study comprises 24 case studies surveyed under two different design controls, constant mass and constant volume, for comparing purposes. Finite element simulations are utilized so as to investigate models’ deformations and to extract some crashworthiness parameters in aid of representing the efficiency of the mechanism as well as conducting a parametric study between three different profiles of inner tube. This study shows that models with inner circular and hexagonal tube profile absorb higher amount of energy due to experiencing three different modes of energy dissipation systems, including folding, shear and ductile damages.

The Quantum Consistency of the Ten-Dimensional Heterotic String Effective Action

The finiteness of superstring theory at each order in perturbation theory is considered with respect to the ten-dimensional effective action. The quantum consistency of the ten-dimensional superstring effective action is confirmed with an analysis of the perturbative expansion of the quartic sector. It is found to be compatible with the finiteness of reduced four-dimensional theory. Furthermore, implications for the validity of superstring perturbation theory at lower energies is considered.

The Buckling Behavior of Boron Nitride Nanotubes under Bending： An Atomistic Study

In this paper, the buckling behavior of zigzag BN （Boron Nitride） nanotubes under bending is studied through molecular dynamics finite element method with Tersoff potential. The tube with namely （15, 0） BN zigzag tube is investigated. The critical bending buckling angle, moment and curvature are studied and examined with respect to the tube length-diameter ratios from 5 to 30. Effects of a SW （Stone-Wales） defect in the middle tube on the bending behavior are also discussed. The results show that the tube length affects significantly the bending behavior of these tubes. All tubes exhibit brittle fracture under bending. The buckling takes place at the middle in the compressive side of these tubes. These results are important information on the buckling behaviors of pristine and Stone-Wales BN nanotubes, which will be useful for their future applications.

Development and study on automatic balancer based on counter weight by magnetic force

Rotating machines are very sensitive to mass unbalance which has a harmful effect on its running accuracy and service life. Therefore,a variety of dynamic balancing methods and devices are studied to reduce the vibration caused by mass unbalance. On-line active balancing is a new balancing procedure which is more convenient and precise than the previous methods. In this paper,an electromagnetic balancer based on ring coils and permanent magnets is presented. The balancer has a simple structure and the self-locking function without clutch,and transfers power by the non-contact electromagnetic field. In order to justify the rationality of its design,a two-dimension(2D) electromagnetic finite element model is conducted to verify that this magnetic circuit has no flux leakage and saturation. A three-dimension (3D) 1/10 model of the balancer is built to obtain the self-locking torque and driving torque. Based on the research work above,an electromagnetic balancer is developed. By testing the balancer using COCO80,it is verified effective to reduce the rotor unbalance at the speed of 1300 r/min.

Finite element simulation of wireless structural vibration control with photostrictive actuators

A recently emerging family of smart materials,photostrictive materials,exhibit large photostriction under uniform illumination of high-energy light.This photostriction mechanism arises from a superposition phenomenon of photovoltaic and converse piezoelectric effects.A photostrictive type of opto-electromechanical actuator activated by high-energy lights can introduce actuation and control effects without hard-wired connections.The control light intensity applied to the actuator is proportional to the transverse velocity at a positioned point,which is measured by a laser vibrometer.In this paper,photostrictive films are numerically analyzed to evaluate their use as wireless actuators for future remote vibration control of flexible structures.A novel opto-electromechanical solid shell finite element formulation is developed for accurate analysis of the multiple physics effects of photovoltaic,pyroelectric and thermal expansion of photostrictive materials.Available experimental data and analytical solutions have been used to verify the present finite element results.The simulation in this study demonstrates that the present formulation is very reliable,accurate and also computationally efficient and that the use of photostrictive actuators can provide good controllability of structural vibration.
