Steering drift and wheel movement during braking: parameter sensitivity studies [PDF]
, 2003 YesIn spite of the many signi cant improvements in car chassis design over the past two decades, steering drift during braking where the driver must apply a corrective steering torque in order to maintain course can still be experienced under certain ...

Radiative Precession of an Isolated Neutron Star [PDF]
, 2000 Euler's equations of motion are derived exactly for a rigid, triaxial, internally frictionless neutron star spinning down electromagnetically in vacuo. It is shown that the star precesses, but not freely: its regular precession relative to the principal ...

The rotation-magnetic field relation [PDF]
, 2008 Today, the generation of magnetic fields in solar-type stars and its relation to activity and rotation can coherently be explained, although it is certainly not understood in its entirety. Rotation facilitates the generation of magnetic flux that couples

IEEE Access, 2019 A new permanent magnet retarder (PMR), which based on the principle of eddy-current braking, is proposed as an auxiliary braking apparatus for heavy vehicles. Its braking torque can be stepless adjusted by the adjustment mechanism.

Pulsar Spindown by a Fall-Back Disk and the P-P_dot Diagram [PDF]
, 2001 Neutron stars may be surrounded by fall-back disks formed from supernova core-collapse. If the disk circumscribes the light-cylinder, the neutron star will be an active radio pulsar spinning down under the propeller spin-down torque applied by the disk ...

Development of Heat Engines Powered by Twisted and Coiled Polymer Fiber Actuators
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Continuously rotating engines driven by thermally responsive actuating materials can turn waste heat into useful energy. For the first time heat engines operated by twisted and coiled polymer fiber actuators are demonstrated with engine design guided by two simple analytical models.

Age constraints in the double pulsar system J0737-3039 [PDF]
, 2007 We investigate the age constraints that can be placed on the double pulsar system using models for the spin-down of the first-born 22.7-ms pulsar A and the 2.77-s pulsar B with characteristic ages of 210 and 50 Myr respectively.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study introduces a hybrid robot that integrates mechanical assistance by musculoskeletons (i.e., soft pneumatic muscle with rigid exoskeletal extensions), neuromuscular electrical stimulation, and vibrotactile feedback in a lightweight wearable mechatronic complex applicable to the paretic ankle–foot poststroke for gait restoration. The system can
