Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The self-adjusting mechanism, as the study shows, independently (without a control system) adapts to changes in the working process, which significantly expands the possibilities of its use in automatic machines. The main idea of creating a self-adjusting mechanism is to use a structural chain instead of a kinematic chain. A structural chain is a system of links connected by kinematic and force pairs. Previous studies have shown that the new mechanism can self-adjust (or independently adapt to a variable external load) and is a self-regulating mechanism. The proposed article is a structural analysis and study of self-adjusting mechanisms.
