Low-Velocity Impact-Load-Carrying Behavior of Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened in Flexure by Bonding a Carbon Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Sheet to the Tension-Side Surface by Tomoki Kawarai, Masato Komuro, Norimitsu Kishi

“…Usually, the existing reinforced concrete (RC) structures are strengthened by applying steel plate bonding and concrete enlargement methods. However, since fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composite materials have properties that are better than those of steel and concrete materials, i.e., being light weight, with anticorrosive material, a high ratio of strength to weight, and better workability, FRP sheet bonding methods for RC members have been developed, and practical applications have been gradually increased worldwide, statically. …”

General principles of expanding the speed range of operation of autonomous power supply systems for passenger cars by S. L. Samoshkin, S. S. Mironov, O. S. Samoshkin, M. V. Khodenkov, A. S. Sarikov

“…It is solved by forcing the excitation of the generators.Analysis of modern systems of autonomous power supply of passenger cars showed that the expansion of the speed range of its operation can be achieved in three ways:•             raising the gear ratio of the gearbox to ensure it is switched on to the nominal mode at a carriage speed of 15 - 20 km/h without changing the parameters of the generator and the entire system of autonomous power supply;•             modernization of the electrical equipment complex for passenger cars to ensure the operation of the main power consumers and charge the battery while driving at low speeds (over 18 km/h) without changing the mechanical parameters and composition of the serial generator-drive unit;•             modernization of the generator in order to reduce its turnon revolutions to the power required to provide the main power consumers without changing the mechanical parameters of the drive.All three methods have its advantages and disadvantages, the choice of any of them is determined by the technical requirements for a specific car model.…”
