Frigid Weather, Weak Exports Curtail Activity
WASHINGTON—The U.S. economy nearly stalled in the first quarter as weakness
overseas hurt exports and frigid weather curtailed business investment.
Gross domestic product, the broadest measure of goods and services produced
across the economy, grew at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 0.1% in the
first quarter, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. That matched the
second-weakest quarterly r... 阅读全帖 |

Fewer than half of U.S. adults are working full time. Why? Slow growth and

There has been a distinctive odor of hype lately about the national jobs
report for June. Most people will have the impression that the 288,000 jobs
created last month were full-time. Not so.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy skidded to a near halt in the first
three months of the year, battered by a triple whammy of harsh weather,
plunging exports and sharp cutbacks in oil and gas drilling.
The overall economy grew at a barely discernible annual rate of 0.2 percent
in the January-March quarter, the Commerce Department reported Wednesday.

人民币贬值对许多亚洲国家的货币来说是一个新的风险,后者此前没有像相当大一部分
新兴市场货币那样下跌。
最近几周,韩元、台币和新加坡元等新兴市场货币走势疲弱,这标志着今年以来各种货
币对美元汇率疲软的格局翻开新篇章。
美元强势一直是2018年新兴市场货币疲软的主要推动因素,阿根廷、土耳其和南非等国
家由于经常账户赤字而特别脆弱。相比之下,那些经常账户盈余的新兴市场国家此前受

百达(Pictet)经济学家帕特里克•兹韦费尔(Patrick Zweifel)表示,亚洲货币面

民币贬值”。
对于投资者而言,货币疲弱局面的最新转变似乎表明,出现波及面更广的市场和经济压

看得出楼主是个理工男(为了避免性别歧视,for the record - 极少可能性是女),
有一点汽车知识,但是离专业还是差很远的。精神值得鼓励。我没空评论整篇的文章,
只好随便举了一段。
首先“第一是车身完全刚性,实际上大多数车身刚性都并不很强”
完全错误!
大多数车身的刚性(现代的承载车身)远远超过悬挂的刚性。
如果车身的刚性比较弱,悬挂的调教是不会“硬”的。
原因在于如果你让软车身的悬挂非常硬,车身会变成WEAKEST LINK。
悬挂会起不到它的作用,减震器(DAMPER)会非常没有效率。
造成要命的结果是由于路面激励出来的能量,没有DAMPER吸收,而传入车身。
车身依靠变形来衰减能量而疲劳是调教不希望出现的结果。
当然你可能因为没有开过什么好车,没什么认识。
我的确是调教到过车身刚性很弱的车的,非常困难。
因为必须使用”软悬挂“的原因,DAMPER吸收不了能量。造成车子会很不舒适。 |
