Switching PD-based sliding mode control for hovering of a tilting-thruster underwater robot. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 This paper presents a switching PD-based sliding mode control (PD-SMC) method for the 6-degree-of-freedom (DOF) hovering motion of the underwater robot with tilting thrusters.

On transient sliding motion [PDF]
Geophysical Journal International, 1978 Summary. Two kinds of transient sliding motion under a case of idealized dry friction are studied. One concerns uni-directional slip at constant propagation velocity along a strip of constant length in the propagation direction. The other regards extensional slip along a strip expanding symmetrically with constant velocity. The former kind involves one

Statistical Motion Mask and Sliding Registration [PDF]
, 2018 Accurate registration of images depicting respiratory motion, e.g. 4DCT or 4DMR, can be challenging due to sliding motion that occurs between the chest wall and organs within the pleural sac (lungs, mediastinum, liver). In this paper we propose a methodology that (1) segments one of the images to be registered (the source or floating/moving image) into

Arnol′d tongues arising from a grazing-sliding bifurcation [PDF]
, 2009 The Neımark–Sacker bifurcation, or Hopf bifurcation for maps, is a well-known bifurcation for smooth dynamical systems. At this bifurcation a periodic orbit loses stability, and, except at certain “strong” resonances, an invariant torus is born.

Stick-Slip Behaviour of a Viscoelastic Flat Sliding along a Rigid Indenter
Tribology Online, 2016 The sliding contact of soft material surface due to a rigid indenter is different from metal and some other polymers. A stick-slip motion is more frequently obtained than a smooth motion. By modeling the soft material as low damping viscoelastic material,

Swing control for a three-link brachiation robot based on sliding-mode control on irregularly distributed bars [PDF]
Mechanical Sciences, 2021 The bionic-gibbon robot is a popular bionic robot. The bionic-gibbon robot can imitate a gibbon in completing brachiation motion between branches. With nonlinear and underactuated properties, the robot has important research value.
