AIP Conference Proceedings, 2002 Entropic Dynamics is a framework in which dynamical laws are derived as an application of entropic methods of inference. No underlying action principle is postulated. Instead, the dynamics is driven by entropy subject to the constraints appropriate to the problem at hand. In this paper we review three examples of entropic dynamics.

Making System Dynamics Cool III: New Hot Teaching & Testing Cases [PDF]
, 2011 This follow-up paper presents seven actual cases for testing and teaching System Dynamics developed and used between January 2010 and January 2011 for one of the largest System Dynamics courses (250+ students per year) at Delft University of Technology ...

Journal of Philosophical Logic, 1995 The authors provide various propositional logics for the dynamic implication studied by Kamp, Groenendijk, Stokhof, and others to analyse some natural language phenomena. The underlying idea in these theories, which analyses sentence meanings as active entities transforming state spaces like computer programs, is abstracted in the framework of two ...

A Scaled-Bogie Test Bench to Understand and Demystify Wheel-Rail Contact Dynamics [PDF]
, 2011 It is a well-known fact that railway dynamics is far from being trivial, mostly because of the wheel/rail contact phenomenon. Except for specialists in this field who are obviously familiar with notions like wheelset equivalent conicity, hunting motion ...

Sea ingression dynamics and its interaction with occupation of the Lowlands between AD 300 and 1000 [PDF]
, 2014 The Early Middle Ages (ca. 300 - 1000 AD) was a period of severe pan-European economic and demographic change. During this period population declined and human influence on the landscape diminished throughout large parts of Europe (Cheyette 2008 ...

The Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) distance is a popular similarity measure for polygonal curves (i.e., sequences of points). It finds many theoretical and practical applications, especially for temporal data, and is known to be a robust, outlier-insensitive alternative to the \frechet distance. For static curves of at most $n$ points, the DTW distance can

Robotran-Yarp interface: a framework for real-time controller development based on multibody dynamics simulation [PDF]
, 2015 Multibody dynamics simulation is widely used for testing and prototyping controllers. However, the transfer of controllers initially developed in simulation to real mechatronics platforms, requires modifications of the code in order to interface with ...
