Abstract:

Acceleration characteristics of starting vehicles are needed for many transportation analysis and design purposes involving driveways, turning bays, intersecting streets, traffic signals, railroad crossings, simulation software, and so forth. Constant acceleration is sometimes assumed, or AASHTO Green Book values based on piecewise-constant accelerations are sometimes adopted. However, continuing research has shown that linearly decreasing acceleration rates better represent both maximum vehicle acceleration capabilities and actual motorist behavior. It is not acceleration that usually is cons

Abstract:

Terminal guidance law design and its implementation are considered for homing missiles against maneuvering targets. The lateral acceleration dynamics are taken into account in the design. In the guidance law design, the line-of-sight acceleration signals are incorporated into the acceleration reference signals to compensate for the targets’ maneuvers. Then the commanded accelerations are designed and the convergent tracking of the lateral accelerations to these signals is proven theoretically. In the guidance implementation, a linear high-gain differentiator is used to estimate the line-of-sig

Abstract:

The gravitational force on the rib cage has been found to be an expiratory force of approximately 8 cmH2O. The gravitational force on the abdomen is an inspiratory force of the same magnitude. Because the compliance of the rib cage is greater than the compliance of the abdomen, it follows that gravity has a net expiratory effect on lung volume and that upward accelerations augmenting the gravitational force would have an additional expiratory effect. This conclusion is contrary to observations that functional residual capacity increases during headward accelerations in centrifuges and during i

Abstract:

Studies of individual neurons in area MT have traditionally investigated their sensitivity to constant speeds. We investigated acceleration sensitivity in MT neurons by comparing their responses to constant steps and linear ramps in stimulus speed. Speed ramps constituted constant accelerations and decelerations between 0 and 240°/s. Our results suggest that MT neurons do not have explicit acceleration sensitivity, although speed changes affected their responses in three main ways. First, accelerations typically evoked higher responses than the corresponding deceleration rate at all rates test

Abstract Strong S waves produce dynamic stresses, which bring the shallow subsurface into nonlinear inelastic failure. We examine implications of nonlinear viscous flow, which may be appropriate for shallow muddy soil, and contrast them with those of Coulomb friction within a shallow reverberating uppermost layer with low‐seismic velocities. Waves refract into essentially vertical paths at the shallow layers and produce tractions on horizontal planes. The Coulomb ratio of shear traction to lithostatic stress for S waves equals the resolved horizontal acceleration normalized to the acceleration

Steady-speed running steps and accelerations were compared to determine how turkeys alter their running mechanics from a low-power to a high-power gait. During maximal accelerations, turkeys eliminated two features of running mechanics that are characteristic of steady-speed running:

For the case of geostrophic turbulence on a β-plane, three terms contribute to the Lagrangian accelerations: the ageostrophic pressure gradient which often is the largest term, a meridional acceleration due to the β-effect, and an acceleration due to horizontally divergent ageostrop

In order to reveal the change rule of vibration acceleration during micro-end-milling straight groove, the single-factor and orthogonal experiments are employed to confirm the influence of milling parameters on vibration acceleration. On this basis, the relation equation between milling parameters and vibration accelerations is built. The result show that, the vibration acceleration along the width of groove is bigger than that of feed direction and it will increase rapidly with the improve of cutting speed; the predicted result of vibration acceleration is in good accordance with test result,

Abstract:

On conditions of different weight and height, the tunnel portal structure’s accelerations evoked by rock-fall impaction have been researched in laboratory by using a 1/30 scale similar model. The study shows that the normal acceleration value is the biggest, the lateral acceleration is second and the longitudinal acceleration is the minimum. There is a simple linear relationship between the structure’s acceleration, the rock weight and the rockfall height when the slope gradient is 1:0.5 and the slope surface is slippery. The multiple linear relationship between the structure’s normal accelera

Abstract:

To examine the range of gait acceleration and cycle in daily walking of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), we compared the gait of 40 patients with PD and 17 normal controls by using a newly developed long-term monitoring device that extracts gait-related accelerations from overall movements-related accelerations. The range of change in gait acceleration, relative to the control, was less than 75% in 12 patients. The range of change in gait cycle was less than 75% in 8 patients. The range of changes in both parameters was less than 75% in 4 patients. The results suggest narrow changes in

Abstract:

Two species of sea urchins (Colobocentrotus atratus and Echinometra mathaei) commonly co-occur on wave-swept intertidal shores in the Indo West Pacific. E. mathaei is a typical spiny urchin and is confined to cavities in the rock. In contrast, C. atratus has an unusual morphology, in which the spines are much reduced, and is found on substrata fully exposed to wave-induced velocities and accelerations. Previous researchers have suggested that spine reduction may therefore be a morphological adaptation to hydrodynamic forces. However, measurement of the drag, lift and accelerational forces on s

Objectives. Injury associated with lifting, especially low back injury, is a big problem in industry that accounts for loss of work and high medical expenses. Studies of biomechanics of lifting provide a basis for optimization of lifting. The aim of the study was to further investigate the role of the upward force due to negative acceleration during a lift. Methods. Nine healthy subjects lifted an empty box and a box with additional load of 10, 20, and 25 lb. Kinematic data were recorded during the lifts and accelerations were calculated, and angular positions of the trunk and knee were obtain

Abstract In August 2005, the eye of Hurricane Katrina passed 90 km to the west of a 3-m discus buoy deployed in the Mississippi Sound and operated by the Central Gulf of Mexico Ocean Observing System (CenGOOS). The buoy motions were measured with a strapped-down, 6 degrees of freedom accelerometer, a three-axis magnetometer, and from the displacement of a GPS antenna measured by postprocessed-kinematic GPS. Recognizing that an accelerometer experiences a large offset due to gravity, the authors investigated four different means of computing wave heights. In the most widely used method for a bu

We derive the equations of motion for an extensible belt on a pulley in which all effects of inertia, including (for the first time) acceleration due to stretching, are retained in the momentum balance. These equations are also valid for fibers and films on rollers undergoing cold draw. We apply our equations to the problem of torque transmission by a belt between two pulleys, and compare the resulting solution to solutions in which centrifugal acceleration is included but stretching acceleration is neglected (the common engineering practice), and the solution in which both centrifugal and str

Abstract:

Small mismatches between similarly manufactured accelerometers stem from slight differences between their flexural elements, seismic masses and their mountings, as well as variations in damping ratios. This is not detrimental for measuring absolute accelerations, but when it is desired to measure differential accelerations, very large errors may result. This is probably the main reason why transducers for measuring differential acceleration are not generally commercially available.

We derive the radiation characteristics of an accelerated, charged particle in a model due to Caianiello in which the proper acceleration of a particle of mass [Formula: see text] has the upper limit [Formula: see text]. We find two power laws, one applicable to lower accelerations, the other more suitable for accelerations closer to [Formula: see text] and to the related physical singularity in the Ricci scalar. Geometrical constraints and power spectra are also discussed. By comparing the power laws due to the maximal acceleration (MA) with that for particles in gravitational fields, we find

The increasing need for repairs of polygonized wheels on high-speed railways in China is becoming problematic. At high speeds, polygonized wheels cause abnormal vibrations at the wheel-rail interface that can be detected via axle-box accelerations. To investigate the quantitative relationship between axle-box acceleration and wheel polygonization in both the time and frequency domains and under high-speed conditions, a dynamics model was developed to simulate the vehicle-track coupling system and that considers both wheel and track flexibility.

A dog was fixed to a movable table, which was accelerated by a compressed air piston for less than 1 s. Acceleration was varied by changing the air pressure in the piston. Pressure was measured during the experiment at different points along the vascular bed. However, only data obtained in the carotid artery and abdominal aorta are presented here.
