Experimental investigation of energy harvesting behind a bluff body
Usman Latif,Emad Uddin,Chaudhary Abdullah,Zaib Ali,Muhammad Sajid,Khalid Akhtar,Samiur Rehman Shah +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of base suction on flapping and energy harvesting through the piezoelectric membrane in the wake of a cylindrical bluff body is studied by carrying out a series of wind tunnel experiments.

A framework for manufacturing strategy analysis in the wake of reducing product life-cycles: a case of a multinational in a newly industrializing count
Khalid Akhtar,Mario T. Tabucanon +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that establishing a suitable ‘hierarchy’ of underlying factors can allow systematic generation of strategies, and it is proposed that strategies he divided in terms of their typology, referred to as the ‘defensive’, ‘aggressive’ or ‘innovative’ strategies corresponding to low cost, high quality and throughput or flexibility attributes.

Proximal Actuation of an Elastically Loaded Scissors Mechanism for the Leg Design of a Quadruped Robot
Muhammad Hamza Asif Nizami,Zaid Ahsan Shah,Yasar Ayaz,Muhammad Jawad Khan,Sara Ali,Muhammad Naveed,Khalid Akhtar,Darren Dancey,Raheel Nawaz +8 more
TL;DR: This proposed leg utilizes the increased mechanical advantage of the scissors mechanism to ’amplify’ input angles to larger output displacement by the knee joint, and achieves increased motion speed as compared to the SLP mechanism.
Experimental and theoretical evaluation of friction in roller follower valve train
TL;DR: In this paper, an innovative and effective technique based on strain gauges has been presented which is used to measure the instantaneous friction in roller follower valve train and a numerical approach based on mixed lubrication concept considering roller sliding has also been presented to predict the friction.
