In this study, 12 commercially available paper towels were collected from the local market. Their tensile properties were investigated by Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric (KES-F). Four tensile properties namely: (i) extensibility (EMT), (ii) tensile energy (WT), (iii) tensile resilience (RT) and (iv) linearity of WT (LT) were evaluated. Experimental results revealed that the tensile properties varied within the products. EMT was used as the key property for discussing the tensile properties of paper towels. However, when the different tensile properties were correlated, it was found that WT/RT, WT/EMT and RT/EMT had strong Pearson correlation. In addition, there was no significant statistically relationship between weight and thickness to EMT. Based on this study, it can provide some information about the tensile properties of paper towels in local market which may help the industry for further improving the product quality.

In this study, we chose 12 commonly available paper towels from the local market. The compression properties of the paper towels were examined by Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric (KES-F). Three compression properties namely: (i) compressional linearity (LC), (ii) compression energy (WC) and (iii) compressional resilience (RC) were examined. The experimental results revealed that the compression properties varied within the different paper towels. RC vlaue was used as the key property for discussing the compression properties of paper towels. When different compression properties were correlated and analysed, it was found that no relationship was noted within different compression properties. On the other hand, there was not significant statistically relationship between weight and thickness to RC. It is hope that the results from this study can help the indurstry to improve the compression properties of paper towels for local market.

In this paper, we collected 12 commercially available paper towels from the local market and their shearing properties were evaluated by Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric (KES-F). Three properties namely: (i) shear rigidity (G), (ii) shear stress at 0.5º (2HG) and (iii) shear stress at 5º (2HG5) were studied. Experimental results revealed that the shearing properties varied within the products. G was used as the key property for discussing the shearing properties of paper towels. However, in correlating different shearing properties, it was found that 2HG and 2HG5 had strong Pearson correlation. However, no significant statistically relationship between weight and thickness to G was found. This study may provide data for the industry for the improvement of shearing properties of paper towels for local market.

12 commercially available paper towels were collected from the local market and studied in this paper. Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric (KES-F) was used for evaluating their bending properties. Two bending properties namely: (i) bending rigidity (B) and (ii) bending moment (2HB) were evaluated. Experimental results indciated that the bending properties varied within the products. B was used as the key property for discussing the bending properties of paper towels. When the correlations of different bending properties were investigated, it was found that no significant was found between B and 2HB. However, there was significant statistically relationship between weight and B but no relationship between thickness and B. With the use of the results, the product developer could improve the bending properties of the paper towels.

In this study, 12 commercially available paper towels were collected from the market. Their shearing properties were evaluated by Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric (KES-F). Three properties namely: (i) coefficient of friction (MIU), (ii) deviation of MIU (MMD) and (iii) geometric roughness (SMD). Experimental results revealed that the surface properties varied within the products. When different properties were correlated, it was found that there was not significantly relationship between MIU, MMD and SMD. However, weight and thickness had well statistically relationship to SMD.

This paper based on the finite element method, established a beam-brick model for double-block ballastless track which has a through crack on the roadbed slab to analysis what kind of patching material is the most suitable when the most unfavorable loads act on the track. For this reason, we can provide theoretical basis for maintenance of double-block ballastless track .

At present, China's large span continuous rigid frame bridge (CRFB) has made rapid development, and has been applied in the railway bridges. This paper based on finite element analysis software ANSYS, using the simplified algorithm, establish a line - bridge - pier integration model for calculation of continuous welded rail (CWR) on bridge, the continuous rigid bridge and continuous rigid frame bridge (CGB) in two different conditions were compared and analyzed. The calculation results show that: the rail expansion force, bending force, braking force, rail broken gap of CRFB are smaller than that of the CGB of same beam span, in CWR, CRFB has obvious advantages, it should be popularized.; equivalent temperature span of CRFB are smaller than that of the CGB of same beam span, so the CRFB is less affected by the temperature; because of the pier and girder consolidation of CRFB, favorable to CWR, but due to the bending effect of bridge piers can lead to beam produces larger vertical deformation, thus affecting the track smoothness, which must be noticed in design.

A precise approach for the tooth profile modification (TPM) of helical gear is presented in the paper based on the static contact finite element analysis (FEA). The high-precision finite element model of helical meshing gear pairs is established. The type and amount of TPM are accurately determined by the static contact FEA results. The dynamic contact simulations of helical gears with and without tooth modification are investigated to estimate the vibration reduction effect of the TPM. Moreover the numerical simulations are compared with the experimental results. Both results show that the proposed precise TPM of helical gears is effective on vibration reduction around the working load, and the dynamic contact simulation is effective on estimating the vibration reduction influence of the TPM.
