The “Body Mass Index” of Flexible Ureteroscopes

Journal of Endourology, 2017
To assess the "body mass index" (BMI) (weight and length) of 12 flexible ureteroscopes (digital and fiber optic) along with the light cables and camera heads, to make the best use of our instruments.Twelve different brand-new flexible ureteroscopes from four different manufacturers, along with eight camera heads and three light cables were evaluated ...

Transient analysis of flexible multi-body systems. Part I: Dynamics of flexible bodies

Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 1986
The formulation for the dynamic analysis of undamped linear structural systems using the finite element method results in two element matrices; the mass and stiffness matrices, that describe the element inertia and stiffness properties. However, these matrices are not sufficient to describe the dynamics of structures that undergo large rigid-body ...

Body Image Flexibility

2019
As part of a growing movement to emphasize the positive aspects of body image, an increasing amount of research has been devoted to the study of body image flexibility. By definition, this process-oriented construct encompasses the ability to embrace a present-moment experience of potentially distressing emotions and cognitions related to the body ...

Non-Intrusive Computation of Rigid-Body/Flexible-Body Coupling Integrals

2018 Multidisciplinary Analysis and Optimization Conference, 2018
The coupled equations of motion of an unrestrained flexible body when derived using multibody dynamics or mean axes formulation consist of three mass coupling integrals, namely, the first-order and...

Urethane Flexible Body Parts

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1973
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper discusses the current applications of urethane in flexible body parts which for 1973 cars has resulted in designs for bumper covers, bumper to body fillers, and body extensions. The flexible parts are color-keyed extensions of the body surface also matching the car body in luster and texture.

Modeling of Flexible Bodies

2016
This chapter will discuss some of the widely used techniques for modeling flexible multibody systems (MBS). Among the topics discussed in this chapter are the floating frame of reference (FFR) formulation and the absolute nodal coordinate formulation (ANCF). Discussion on the use of the CAD-based methods such as B-spline and NURBS (Non-uniform rational

The effect of flexible body armour on pulmonary function

Ergonomics, 2015
The additional mass and fit of current military in-service body armour (ISBA) can reduce pulmonary function in a way that is characteristic of a restrictive respiratory impairment. This could ultimately impair exercise capacity and military performance.

Flexible body scanning without template models

Signal Processing, 2019
Abstract The apparition of low-cost depth cameras has lead to the development of several reconstruction methods that work well with rigid objects, but tend to fail when used to manually scan a standing person. Specific methods for body scanning have been proposed, but they have some ad-hoc requirements that make them unsuitable in a wide range of ...

Flexible relaxation of rigid‐body docking solutions

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2007
AbstractMolecular Dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed on a set of rigid‐body docking poses, carried out over 25 protein–protein complexes. The results show that fully flexible relaxation increases the fraction of native contacts (NC) by up to 70% for certain docking poses.
