Abstract: Compliant mechanisms (CMs) are used to transfer motion, force, and energy, taking advantages of the elastic deformation of the involved compliant members. A branch of special type of elastic phenomenon called (post) buckling ...

Abstract: The vibration problem of a simply supported beam subjected to a moving elastic structure is investigated. The model consists of two Euler-Bernoulli beams which are assumed to be connected by flexible springs at two discrete ...

Abstract: his paper focuses on the development and validation of retrieval models of water vapor (WV) and wet tropospheric path delay (PD) for the calibration microwave radiometer (CMR) on board the first ocean dynamic environment ...

Abstract: In this article, we investigate the position-access workspace estimation of slender soft manipulators controlled via arranged bounded actuators. For this, we implement a so-called forward-backward approach on the mathematical ...

Abstract: Compliant mechanisms (CMs) have presented its inherently advantageous properties due to the fact that CMs utilize elastic deformation of the elementary flexible members to transfer motion, force, and energy. Previously, ...

Abstract: In this paper, the problem of output control for linear uncertain systems with external perturbations is studied. First, it is assumed that the output available for measurement is only the higher-order derivative of the ...

Abstract: Dealing with dredged clay with high water content has become a difficult issue in recent years. The admixture addition of polyacrylamide (PAM) to dredged clay to improve its poor engineering properties has become a trend. ...

Abstract: By comparing the related total cost before and after the purchasing consortia formation, the impetus of formation is analyzed. Moreover, based on different transportation and storage policies, the formation impetus is ...

Abstract: Cost effectiveness is a major factor in most vacuum preloading projects, considering the significantly reduced time allotted to achieve a relatively high degree of consolidation. However, the shallow base and deep layer ...
