Distinction of disorder, classical and quantum vibrational contributions to atomic mean-square amplitudes in dielectric pentachloronitrobenzene

, 2011
The solid-state molecular disorder of pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB) and its role in causing anomalous dielectric properties are investigated. Normal coordinate analysis (NCA) of atomic mean-square displacement parameters (ADPs) is employed to ...

Modeling and Characterization of a Self‐Sensing Soft Hydraulic Muscle

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the self‐sensing soft hydraulic muscle (SSHM), a novel soft actuator capable of simultaneously sensing force and length without external sensors. A comprehensive model accurately predicts SSHM behavior, validated experimentally with minimal errors. Using propylene glycol enhances durability and reduces hysteresis.

The Properties of Torsional Vibrations in Reciprocating Engine Shafts. Part II

, 1926
In a previous paper by the writer an examination was made of the torsional vibrations occurring in a reciprocating engine shaft. The case studied was that of a shaft driven by a six-cylinder engine, all parts except the shaft being considered rigid ...

Maneuverable Multilegged Locomotion through Anisotropically Arranged Soft Backbones in a Single‐Actuator Modular Miniature Robot

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A modular eight‐legged robot exploits anisotropically oriented soft I‐beam backbones to transmit vibration from a single unbalanced‐mass actuator, producing frequency‐dependent multimodal gaits. A pseudo‐rigid‐body model enables high‐fidelity MuJoCo simulation, while Bayesian parameter identification and reinforcement learning yield robust control ...

Thresholds for hanger slackening and cable shortening in the Melan equation for suspension bridges

, 2017
The Melan equation for suspension bridges is derived by assuming small displacements of the deck and inextensible hangers. We determine the thresholds for the validity of the Melan equation when the hangers slacken, thereby violating the inextensibility ...
