Finite Element Analysis of a Dynamic Linear Crack Problem

East European Journal of Physics
This work investigates the problem of a linear crack in the middle of a uniform elastic medium under normal tension-compression loading. The direct Finite Element numerical procedure is used to solve the fractured media deformation problem, which also ...

An Active Knee–Ankle–Foot Orthosis With Torque‐Dense, Low‐Impedance Knee Actuation

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This article presents the simulation, design, and clinical validation of a robotic active KAFO with torque‐sensitive actuation. By passively and continuously adapting the transmission ratio in response to the knee torque, the torque‐sensitive actuator overcomes the tradeoff between torque, weight, and impedance observed in conventional robot actuators,

Preferential trading in agriculture: New insights from a structural gravity analysis and machine learning

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

Dual formulation of a viscoplasticcontact problem with unilateral constraint

, 2013
We consider a mathematical model which describes the contact between a viscoplastic body and an obstacle, the so-called foundation. The process is quasistatic, the contact is frictionless and is modelled with unilateral constraint.

Nonsmooth modal analysis of an elastic bar subject to a unilateral contact constraint

Nonlinear dynamics, 2018
This contribution proposes a numerical procedure capable of performing nonsmooth modal analysis (mode shapes and corresponding frequencies) of the autonomous wave equation defined on a finite one-dimensional domain with one end subject to a Dirichlet ...

Milestone Attainment in Young Children With Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita: Developmental Profile and Associated Factors

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evidence on developmental milestones in children with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) under the age of five is scarce. This multisite cross‐sectional study described developmental status and examined factors associated with milestone attainment in 143 children aged 0–66 months from a pediatric AMC Registry.
