Abstract: With rapid growth of agriculture coupled with increasing population and urbanization, the demand for water in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is continually on the increase, causing alarming drawdown in the deep aquifers, the ...

Abstract: Nickel-yttria stabilized zirconia (Ni-YSZ) is the most widely used material for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) anodes. Anode-supported SOFCs rely on the anode to provide mechanical strength to the ...

Abstract: We consider a simplified characterization of the postural control system that embraces two broad components: one representing the musculoskeletal dynamics in the sagittal plane and the other ...

Abstract: In the semi‐arid zones, seasonal variations in temperature and moisture content are extensive. This may induce severe cracking of the core of an earth dam, particularly in places where the soil is poorly compacted. The ...

Abstract: In this paper we address the problem of PID stabilization of a single-link inverted pendulum-based biomechanical model with force feedback, two levels of position and velocity feedback, and with ...

Abstract: Human voluntary movements are complex physical phenomena due to the complex control mechanism for coordination of limbs in the presence of physiological constraints. In this study, we propose a ...
