Experimental Measurements of Prestressed Masonry with using Sliding Joint

open access: yes, 2014
Contribution deals with experimental measurements of deformations in the place exposed to local load caused by additional pre-stressing. The measurements are made at the masonry corner built in the laboratory equipment.

Sliding Phenomena in Intermittent Rock Joint

open access: yesPeriodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2016
Rock bridges in rock masses would increase the bearing capacity of Non-persistent discontinuities. In this paper the effect of ratio of rock bridge surface to joint surface, rock bridge shape and number of rock bridge on failure behaviour of intermittent rock joint were investigated. A total of 18 various models with dimensions of 15 cm × 15 cm × 15 cm

Heterogeneous Multi-task Learning for Human Pose Estimation with Deep Convolutional Neural Network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We propose an heterogeneous multi-task learning framework for human pose estimation from monocular image with deep convolutional neural network. In particular, we simultaneously learn a pose-joint regressor and a sliding-window body-part detector in a ...

Three-Dimensional Combined Finite-Discrete Element Modeling of Shear Fracture Process in Direct Shearing of Rough Concrete–Rock Joints

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
A three-dimensional combined finite-discrete element element method (FDEM), parallelized by a general-purpose graphic-processing-unit (GPGPU), was applied to identify the fracture process of rough concrete–rock joints under direct shearing.

Cascaded Control of Flexible-Joint Robots Based on Sliding-Mode Estimator Approach

open access: yesJournal of Robotics, 2020
The inherent highly nonlinear coupling and system uncertainties make the controller design for a flexible-joint robot extremely difficult. The goal of the control of any robotic system is to achieve high bandwidth, high accuracy of trajectory tracking ...

Robust Sliding Mode Control for Flexible Joint Robotic Manipulator via Disturbance Observer [PDF]

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems, 2019
In a flexible joint robotic manipulator, parametric variations and external disturbances result in mismatch uncertainties thus posing a great challenge in terms of manipulator’s control. This article investigates non-linear control algorithms for desired

Complexity, rate, and scale in sliding friction dynamics between a finger and textured surface. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Sliding friction between the skin and a touched surface is highly complex, but lies at the heart of our ability to discriminate surface texture through touch.

The sliding hinge joint moment connection

open access: yesBulletin of the New Zealand Society for Earthquake Engineering, 2010
A new friction moment joint for steel framed structures is described. It has a similar cost to conventional construction and is designed such that there is negligible damage to the frame or slabs. Experimental testing shows that steel, brass or aluminium shims can provide satisfactory friction resistance and that there is almost no damage to the frame ...
