Abstract:

On introduit trois types de structures géométriques nouvelles sur des variétés différentiables : formes de contact généralisé, couples de contact et couples contacto-symplectiques. Une forme de contact généralisé sur M est une 2k + 1-forme ω telle que ω∧dω soit une forme volume. Plusieurs exemples sont construits et on donne un critère local qui permet de montrer que tous ces exemples ne sont pas triviaux dans le sens qu'ils ne sont pas de la forme α ∧ dαk (où α est une forme de contact). Un couple de contact sur M est un couple (α, β) de formes de Pfaff de classe constante 2k + 1 et 2h + 1 re

Abstract:

The tangential contact stiffness for ground Ti-6Al-4V surfaces is measured to linearly decrease with the application of tangential load. At the beginning of the application of tangential load, for ground surfaces, the ratio of the tangential contact stiffness to the normal contact stiffness is seen to be approximately half the Mindlin ratio. This is consistent with many other published experimental studies. Measurements of normal contact stiffness for ground surfaces conform to a model that posits a linear relationship between normal contact stiffness and normal load. An equivalent surface rou

This thesis examines the influence of asperities such as found on the teeth of gears and discs, and failure mechanisms associated with rough surface Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication (EHL). The principal outcomes of the research provide a good insight into fatigue life, residual stress effects, damage prediction and surface contact failures. In particular, the study is intended to provide understanding into the residual stress distribution resulting from plastic deformation of surface asperities in the running in process. The residual stress is then added to the asperity elastic stress distributi

Abstract:

This fiction novel focuses on the Sankofa philosophy that we as human beings must learn from our past to better understand our current existence and future; however, sometimes we choose to ignore or suppress the past because remembering it may be too hurtful. When we forget what happened yesterday our outlook on today and tomorrow becomes distorted. Contact is a novel that attempts to explore how 'living in the now' alone becomes problematic because the past'if not remembered'will come back to haunt you.

A novel method for coupling fluid pressure and crack deformation for the purpose of analysing rolling contact fatigue (RCF) cracks in lubricated, hydrodynamic and elastohydrodynamic, contacts is presented. The model addresses some of the simplifying assumptions applied to existing models presented in the literature such as: (i) using an imposed fluid pressure gradient inside the crack, (ii) using an imposed fluid pressure at the crack mouth, and (iii) adopting a surface contact pressure, Hertzian or EHL, that does not account for the fluid flow in and out of the crack during loading.

Abstract:

Rolling contacts are utilized in many technical applications, both in bearings and in the contact between gear teeth. These components are often highly loaded, which makes them susceptible to suffer from rolling contact fatigue. This work focuses on the rolling contact fatigue mechanism of pitting. In order to attain a better understanding of why pitting initiates and grows, detailed simulations of rolling contacts have been performed. In particular the contact between two gears in a truck retarder was here used as a case study. The investigated contact experienced elastohydrodynamic lubricati

Abstract:

Spectroscopic and photometric observations of six late-type contact and near-contact binaries are presented, and the results of the analyses discussed. Absolute dimensions have been deduced for three systems: YY Ceti. CX Aquarii and RV Corvi. YY Ceti, which has an orbital period of 0.79 days, is found to be composed of a normal main-sequence star of spectral type A8 and an evolved G-type star which completely fills its Roche lobe. We argue that the system will evolve into contact within approximately 10 9 years, either by the nuclear evolution of the primary component, or by the loss of angula

This paper describes a new statistical, model-based approach to building a contact state observer. The observer uses measurements of the contact force and position, and prior information about the task encoded in a graph, to determine the current location of the robot in the task configuration space. Each node represents what the measurements will look like in a small region of configuration space by storing a predictive, statistical, measurement model. This approach assumes that the measurements are statistically block independent conditioned on knowledge of the model, which is a

Features of footing are analysed to show how issues of interest and accountability are managed. A discursive psychological approach is used to explore the notion of "understanding" in language and interaction.

Abstract:

Accurate determination of surface texture is essential for the manufacturing of mechanical components within design specifications in engineering and materials science disciplines. It is also required for any subsequent modifications to physical properties and functional aspects of the object. A number of methods are available to characterize any surface through the measurement of roughness parameters that can then be used to describe surface texture. These methods may be divided into those in that direct contact is made with the surface and those where such contact is not required. This repor

Second, it formulates that manipulation task as a set of constraints on the geometry of contact between the effector and the world. Third, it develops tool

Abstract:

L'ambiente di questa tesi è quello del Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTN), un'architettura di rete di telecomunicazioni avente come obiettivo le comunicazioni tra nodi di reti dette “challenged”, le quali devono affrontare problemi come tempi di propagazione elevati, alto tasso di errore e periodi di perdita delle connessioni. Il Bunde layer, un nuovo livello inserito tra trasporto e applicazione nell’architettura ISO/OSI, ed il protocollo ad esso associato, il Bundle Protocol (BP), sono stati progettati per rendere possibili le comunicazioni in queste reti.

Abstract:

As a result, in this thesis we provide a complete implementation of a manipulation system that can operate in unstructured environments. However, there is room for improvement in all the components presented and many unsolved questions that should be addressed in the future remain<br>Como resultado del trabajo presentado en esta tesis, se proporciona una implementación completa de un sistema de manipulación que puede funcionar en entornos no estructurados. Sin embargo, hay margen de mejora en todos los componentes y quedan muchas preguntas sin resolver que deberían ser abordadas en el fu
