The Existence of Cone Critical Point and Common Fixed Point with Applications

open access: yesJournal of Applied Mathematics, 2011
We first establish some new critical point theorems for nonlinear dynamical systems in cone metric spaces or usual metric spaces, and then we present some applications to generalizations of Dancš-Hegedüs-Medvegyev's principle and the existence theorem ...

Low-Cost Materials for Heliostats

open access: yesSolarPACES Conference Proceedings
Four heliostat concepts with extensive use of timber, concrete, or polymers were developed. For cost comparison, a 2 m² benchmark heliostat was designed and built with only moderate or no use of these materials.

Periodic perturbations of Hamiltonian systems

open access: yesAdvances in Nonlinear Analysis, 2016
We prove existence and multiplicity results for periodic solutions of Hamiltonian systems, by the use of a higher dimensional version of the Poincaré–Birkhoff fixed point theorem.

Heliostat Fatigue Loads

open access: yesSolarPACES Conference Proceedings
An approach to estimate the wind load spectra for heliostats is proposed. It is based on the wind-induced fatigue cycle counts for buildings given by the Eurocode EN 1991 and considers heliostat specific impact factors.

High-precision geo-referencing of UAS data with robotic total stations [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Robotic Total Stations (RTS) allow the measurement of 3D positions of kinematic targets with high accuracy. They find wide applications for geo-referencing multisensor systems, but little focus has been put on the geo-referencing of Unmanned Aerial ...

A note on the approximate controllability of second-order integro-differential evolution control systems via resolvent operators

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2021
The approximate controllability of second-order integro-differential evolution control systems using resolvent operators is the focus of this work. We analyze approximate controllability outcomes by referring to fractional theories, resolvent operators ...

Manufacturing injection-moleded Fresnel lens parquets for point-focus concentrating photovoltaic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 1995
This project involved the manufacturing of curved-faceted, injection-molded, four-element Fresnel lens parquets for concentrating photovoltaic arrays. Previous efforts showed that high-efficiency (greater than 82%) Fresnel concentrators could be injection molded.

Recent advances in open billiards with some open problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Much recent interest has focused on "open" dynamical systems, in which a classical map or flow is considered only until the trajectory reaches a "hole", at which the dynamics is no longer considered.

Point thermal bridges of insulated pitched roof structures

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
The current demands on building insulation are continuously increasing. It is understood that the lower the heat transfer coefficient of a particular part of a construction is, the greater the importance of systemic thermal bridges. This article compares

Tactile sensitivity in ultrasonic haptics: Do different parts of hand and different rendering methods have an impact on perceptual threshold?

open access: yesVirtual Reality & Intelligent Hardware, 2019
Background Ultrasonic tactile representation utilizes focused ultrasound to create tactile sensations on the bare skin of a user’s hand that is not in contact with a device. This study is a preliminary investigation on whether different ultrasonic haptic
