Abstract:
Two-wheeled mobile robots with deformed wheels face low stability when climbing steps, and their success rate in overcoming steps is affected by the trajectory. To address these challenges, we propose an improved hybrid genetic and adaptive particle swarm optimization (HGAPSO) algorithm to optimize the deformed wheels’ trajectory for overcoming steps. HGAPSO optimizes the maximum and minimum values of the inertial weight and learning factors of the adaptive particle swarm algorithm utilizing the region-wide search capabilities of the genetic algorithm, which substantially improves the converge

Abstract:
Heavy vehicles play an economically important role in the transportation process, and their numbers have been increasing for several decades. The active safety of the highway system is an important consideration in the design of a heavy vehicle combination. In this paper, the handling characteristics of a 5-axle tractor-semitrailer is examined and used to test for the desired features of the vehicle’s handling and stability. Using these results the optimal control criterion is derived for the vehicle. Four different control strategies are examined by using the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR)

In this paper we introduce a novel application of cordial labeling using the fifth power of graphs, demonstrating its potential for understanding and studying specific graph structures. The resulting cordial labeling scheme for the fifth power of paths, cycles, fans, wheels, lemniscate and the union of fifth power of paths and cycles graphs can provide insights into the properties and structures of these graphs. It can be used to analyze its connectivity, symmetry, and other graph-theoretical characteristics.

Abstract:
Full-timing, living year-round in a recreational vehicle, is discussed as a viable housing alternative for older people. Data were obtained from surveys distributed to 100 members of a nationally-based camping organization. Fifty-five percent of the respondents had lived in their motorhomes, fifth-wheels, or travel trailers for at least two years. Most had sold their conventional homes, planning to full-time indefinitely. Low-cost and adventurous, full-timing is discussed as a lifestyle especially suited for older people in the context of today's mobile society.

Abstract:
A leg-wheel robot has mechanically separated four legs and two wheels, and it performs high mobility and stability on rough terrains. The adaptive gait for large rough terrains of the leg-wheel robot is composed of three gait strategies. In this paper, the integrated gait of the normal gait and the adaptive gaits for large rough terrain is proposed. The proposed gait has following features: 1. There is a path from a gait to any other gait. 2. The robot does not fall into the endless loop of detection, because it moves whenever it detects something. 3. A gait changes finally to step-over gait w

Initially, comparisons are made in the wake structure and base pressures between several CFD codes and experimental data. It was shown that steady-state RANS methods are unsuitable for this geometry due to a large scale unsteadiness in the wake caused by separation at the sharp trailing edge and rear wheel wake interactions. unsteady RANS (URANS) offered no improvements in

Introduction. An important area of agricultural industry development is improving the operating efficiency of wheeled mobile agricultural machinery. The real situation analyzing has shown the presence of a number of difficulties associated with many factors including high agricultural machine weight, which, along with increased performance, leads to the over-compaction of all soil layers that results in reduced yields of cultivated crops and increased energy consumption during subsequent processing.
