Abstract:
A method for coordinating a homogeneous swarm of autonomous mobile robots is presented. The broadcast-based coordination scheme was developed for the Army Ant swarm—a system of small, relatively inexpensive mobile robots that can accomplish complex tasks by cooperating as a team. The primary drawback of the Army Ant system is that the absence of a central supervisor poses difficulty in the coordination and control of the agents. Our coordination scheme provides a global "group dynamic" that controls the actions of each robot using only local interactions. Coordination of the swarm is achieve

Abstract:
This research uses primary cross-sectional non-farm-household data collected from Virginia’s non-metropolitan areas for the 1989 year. The primary objective of this research is to identify the factors that influence the probability of being self-employed. Using an effective sample of 851 household heads, a model consisting of two dichotomous probit equations are specified and developed to determine the statistically significant factors that influence, first, the probability of labor force participation, and then the likelihood of being self-employed. The probit equations are estimated by the m

Shao, Ming. "Modelling simultaneous heat and mass transfer in wood." Thesis, Virginia Tech, 1994. http://hdl.handle.net/10919/42073.

Full text
Abstract:
The fundamental and quantitative study of heat and mass transfer processes in wood plays an important role for understanding many important production processes, such as wood drying and hot-pressing. It will help us improve the existing products and production techniques and develop new manufacturing technology. The most difficult aspect of the study is the complicated interactions of heat and mass transfer mechanisms. Extensive characterization of these physical processes using a strictly experimental approach is extremely difficult because of the excessively large number of variables that mu

Full text
Abstract:
The inclined stepper is a novel piece of exercise equipment that is designed to offer precise control over a wide range of loading levels and exercise speeds by simulating an inclined stepping motion (21). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship and test-retest reliability of the stepper ergometer. Twenty-eight healthy volunteers (age: 23.5 ± 3.6 yrs) completed a graded treadmill (TM) and two graded, step (SI, SII) ergometry tests to assess maximal oxygen consumption (V̇O₂max). The order of these tests was randomized. Expired gases were analyzed using the Medical Graphics CP

Full text
Abstract:
Humans and other animals typically consume less of novel foods than of familiar ones, a phenomenon termed ingestional neophobia. Young children display especially high levels of neophobia, spitting out new foods but accepting those same foods after familiarization. Rejection of novel foods presumably reflects the aversiveness of the food's novel sensory cues, which thereby occasions withdrawal. Familiar foods typically evoke acceptance, suggesting that familiar foods are not categorically aversive. According to a biphasic model of emotion, negative affective behaviors (e.g., withdrawal) are en
