Ground reaction force sensor fault detection and recovery method based on virtual force sensor for walking biped robots [PDF]

, 2013
This paper presents a novel method for ground force sensor faults detection and faulty signal reconstruction using Virtual force Sensor (VFS) for slow walking bipeds. The design structure of the VFS consists of two steps, the total ground reaction force (

Hybrid Simulation of Near-Fault Ground Motion for a Potential Mw 7 Earthquake in Lebanon [PDF]

, 2021
International audienceLebanon is a densely populated country crossed by major faults. Historical seismicity shows the potential of earthquakes with magnitudes >7, but large earthquakes have never been instrumentally recorded in Lebanon.

Dynamic Responses of Concrete-Face Rockfill Dam to Different Site Conditions under Near-Fault Earthquake Excitation

Buildings, 2023
The western region of China is rich in hydropower resources and characterized by unique geological conditions. For the construction or planned construction of high dams in this region, different types of cover layers are formed due to special geological ...

Forecasting the Dialysis Burden in Japan: Validation‐Based Projections of Prevalence and Incidence Through 2050

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Japan has one of the highest dialysis prevalence rates worldwide and a shrinking, aging population. Whether dialysis burden has entered a sustained post‐peak phase or whether recent declines partly reflect pandemic‐related disruptions remains uncertain.

Spectral element method simulation of three-dimensional sedimentary basin under reverse-fault earthquakes

地震科学进展, 2020
Near-fault ground motion can cause serious earthquake disaster in the near-field area，especially when there is sedimentary topography in the area. At present，there are no reports on the ground motion response of sedimentary basins under the action of ...

Modulation of Homer1 EVH1 domain internal dynamics by putative autism‐associated mutations

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The putative autism‐associated M65I and S97L variants of the EVH1 domain of the postsynaptic scaffold protein Homer1 do not exhibit substantial changes in their overall structure or partner binding. Both of them, but especially the M65I variant, show altered internal dynamics relative to the wild‐type domain on the μs‐ms timescale, indicated by the ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Seismic Ground Motion and Residual Deformation near a Vertical Fault [PDF]

, 1975
Ground motion and residual ground deformation at strategic points in the epicentral region of an idealized, vertical shear fault that may correspond to an intermediate magnitude (6–6½) earthquake are displayed and analyzed.

A simplified method for determining the equivalent peak ground acceleration of near-fault pulse-like ground motions

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
Near-fault ground motions (NFGMs) differ significantly from far-field ground motions (FFGMs), as NFGMs exhibit pronounced pulse effects and directionality.

Study on the shock-absorbing effect of a new staggered story isolated structure under the long-period earthquake motion

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The finite element model of a new staggered story isolated structure is established. Using the time-history analysis method, the dynamic response state of the structure at each time step is calculated by integrating the acceleration time-history data ...
