Line geometry and 3D graphic statics

open access: yesGrađevinar, 2019
The mathematical basis for the line geometry, with the line as its basic element, is presented in the paper because the forces that act on a body in space - whether we are interested in conditions of movement or immobility (balance) of that body - are ...

An Adaptive Line-of-Sight (ALOS) Guidance Law for Path Following of Aircraft and Marine Craft

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 2023
This brief presents a novel nonlinear adaptive line-of-sight (ALOS) guidance law for path following, compensating for drift forces due to wind, waves, and ocean currents.

Narrow-line magneto-optical cooling and trapping of strongly magnetic atoms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Laser cooling on weak transitions is a useful technique for reaching ultracold temperatures in atoms with multiple valence electrons. However, for strongly magnetic atoms a conventional narrow-line magneto-optical trap (MOT) is destabilized by ...

Trajectories and Lines of Force [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the American Mathematical Society, 1935
In this paper we generalize certain theorems of Kasnert relative to the geometry of arbitrary fields of force in the plane. Consider the motion of a particle which starts from rest in a positional field of force at a point where the force does not vanish. It begins to move along the line of force on which it is situated.

Geometry-induced phase transition in fluids: capillary prewetting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We report a new first-order phase transition preceding capillary condensation and corresponding to the discontinuous formation of a curved liquid meniscus.

Numerical Calculation of Overhead Power Lines Dynamics

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering, 2016
This paper contains results of transient analysis of airflow around the ACSR power line cross-section in unsymmetric multi-span. The forces applied to the power line are obtained from CFD simulations, where the wind induced vibration is studied.

Effect of Trimming Line Design and Edge Extension of Orthodontic Aligners on Force Transmission: An in vitro Study.

open access: yesE -journal of dentistry, 2022
OBJECTIVES To investigate how the stress distribution and forces transmitted from orthodontic aligners to the tooth surface are affected by the geometry and extension of the trimming line.

Exploring the "firefight line" principle contained in tactical thinking [PDF]

open access: yesZhihui kongzhi yu fangzhen
This paper first constructs a simple valley combat model and a plain combat model, and calculates the battle time and casualties of both. Then, two scenarios are compared and analyzed, and the concept of "firefight line" is proposed.

Force feedback pushing scheme for micromanipulation applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Pushing micro-objects using point contact provides more flexibility and less complexity compared to pick and place operation. Due to the fact that in micro-world surface forces are much more dominant than inertial forces and these forces are ...

Skyline Tensile Forces in Cable Logging: Field Observations vs. Software Calculations

open access: yesCroatian Journal of Forest Engineering, 2021
Skyline tensile forces have been shown to frequently exceed the recommended safety limits during ordinary cable logging operations. Several models for skyline engineering analyses have been proposed.
