Abstract:

SUMMARYA new approach to generating smooth piecewise local trajectories for mobile robots is proposed in this paper. Given the configurations (position and direction) of two points, we search for the trajectory that minimizes the integral of acceleration (tangential and normal). The resulting trajectory should not only be smooth but also safe in order to be applicable in real-life situations. Therefore, we investigate two different obstacle-avoidance constraints that satisfy the minimization problem. Unfortunately, in this case the problem becomes more complex and not suitable for real time im

Abstract:

The existence of a hole near a growing fatigue crack can cause the crack trajectory to deviate. Unless the hole is too close to the crack, the crack is arrested at the edge of the hole and does not progress further. The purpose of this paper was to predict the crack propagation and lifetime of two-dimension geometries for linear elastic materials in mixed-mode loading using a finite element source code program written in Visual Fortran language. The finite element mesh is generated using the advancing front method. The onset criterion of crack propagation was based on the equivalent stress int

The majority of engineering structures are subjected to intricate loading scenarios or possess intricate geometries, resulting in a mixed-mode stress within the component. This study aims to investigate the fracture behavior of these components under mixed-mode loading conditions by examining the relationship among the fatigue stress ratio (R), loading angle, and geometry thicknesses in compact tension shear (CTS) specimens. Using advanced ANSYS simulation techniques, this research explores how these factors affect the fatigue life cycles of engineering materials. To simulate real-world loadin

Traditional myoelectric controls of trans-humeral prostheses fail to provide intuitive coordination of the necessary degrees of freedom.

However, this control involved rapid and unintended prosthesis movements at each modification of the movement goal, impractical for real-life sce

Suppose the modern concept of revolution can be defined as a project of social reorganization led by the state or by a constituent power that aims to become the state. In that case, the restoration is a defense of society, institutions, traditions, and customs from the state. However, restoration is also an expression of a different political orientation of the revolutionary trajectory. The temporality of revolution is mainly future oriented, whereas the restorative tem

Aesthetic phenomena have been intertwined with the life of humans to a significant degree that is not observed in non-human animals. The complexity and subtlety of it have long been regarded as one symbol of human’s exceptional cognitive power. This power can sometimes be misrepresented by a view that regards human aesthetic behaviours as innate/encoded and automated settings that are brought along with the human brain. In scenarios like this, the naturally selected brain takes up a role as some super explanator—by appealing to the configurations of the neural connectivity as reasons/causation

Abstract:

Life testing of commercial lithium-ion batteries is critical for predicting lifetime, anticipating failure, and guaranteeing safe operation of real-world battery energy storage systems. The traditional method for conducting life testing is to use accelerated aging experiments, where stress factors such as temperature, charge/discharge rate, or daily charge-throughput are pushed to extremes to drive cell failure, while taking care not to induce degradation mechanisms that do not reflect real-world use. But even ‘accelerated’ aging tests generally require 6 months to several years of testing to

Abstract:

Neurotransmitters are endogenous chemical messengers that play crucial roles in the transmission, enhancement and conversion of specific signals between neurons and other cells and are considered biomarkers of neurodegenerative diseases.[1] Neurodegenerative diseases cause progressive loss of cognitive and/or motor function and, as life expectancy rises, they imply major challenges for societies with rapidly aging populations.[2] As a result, monitoring neurotransmitters is becoming increasingly relevant in clinical environments. Acetylcholine (Ach) is a neurotransmitter that plays a key role

Abstract:

Development of a solar collector for drying agricultural products, particularly vegetables, was designed, constructed and evaluated. The primary objective of the study was to tackle the issue prevalent in many existing solar dryers, which are predominantly stationary and consequently fail to optimize their power output potential. Therefore, a solar tracking device was formulated and constructed to trace the sun's trajectory, ensuring the generation of the highest attainable power and increase the energy harvested and thereby optimizing the amount of energy received.

Abstract:

With the rapid growth of smart terminals and multimedia applications, traditional cellular networks are facing the challenges of spectrum shortage and increasing energy consumption. Because of their capability to construct high-probability line-of-sight wireless propagation, on-demand deployment, as well as flexible mobility, drones have been employed extensively as airborne base stations to augment ground cellular networks in many circumstances. However, the battery life of drones limits their duration in the air, so energy consumption needs to be carefully managed to ensure that drones still

Abstract:

Drift models are commonly used to study the transport of early life stages of fish and other marine organisms. Various approaches may be applied to examine the distribution and variability of ocean trajectory pathways. In the present study, we compare results using passive Eulerian tracers and Lagrangian float trajectories that are embedded in numerical models. We supplement this analysis by applying an offline model for drift computations. The contrasts in the results from the various configurations are mainly due to differences in drift depth. Simulations were performed using horizontal reso

Abstract:

ABSTRACTWhen I began my career, I had no idea that much of it would center around the hippocampus. Here I discuss some of the history of how this happened. I briefly mention my early undergraduate life and the problems it posed for getting into graduate school. I describe the unique circumstances that led me to Allan Wagner's laboratory and changed my career trajectory. My path to the hippocampus began with a decision to study memory development. This led to a collaboration with Rob Sutherland that produced the configural theory of the hippocampus. The idea was that the hippocampus facilitated

They relied on well-calibrated sensor placements, which require hours of intensive manual setup and respective expertise, feasible only at small scale and by mostly researchers themselves.

Abstract:

AbstractResearchers have been observing a complexification of interpersonal relationships in contemporary societies. However, current theoretical perspectives on relationships fall short of comprehensively grasping increasingly diverse and fluid relationship types (e.g., friends with benefits, polyamory, living‐apart‐together, coparenting, etc.) and patterns of change. In an attempt to meet the need for more integrative and interdisciplinary theorizing, this paper introduces a first outline of relationship course theory to better comprehend the complexity of relationships.

Abstract:

In the face of the genocidal and ecocidal trajectory of climate change and “green” climate change solutions, overcoming the coloniality embodied in energy regimes is of the utmost importance. Because energy regimes are co-constitutive of power structures, energy transitions present opportunities to challenge and transform power structures of domination into more liberatory configurations of power. Through a situated analysis of the Energía para yeknemilis project, which is executed by the Union of Cooperatives Tosepan Titataniske in the Sierra Norte de Puebla, Mexico, we argue that energy tran

This article offers a critical analysis of Manish Jha’s debut feature film Matrubhoomi: A Nation Without Women (2003). The movie offers a dystopic vision of a near future when the systematic killing of new born females would leave villages and its surroundings with no women in it at all. Referring to this phenomenon as ‘bachelor villages’, scholars have identified this as an emerging social problem with wide far-reaching implications for gender relations and social life in general. Existing scholarship has highlighted how the shortage of women leads to increasing levels of violence embodied in

In this article, I draw from several months of fieldwork from 2019 to assess professional subjectivity in the software industry of Canada. I assess employees’ constructions of and feelings about their own productivity. I argue that the ways in which subjects understand and feel about their productivity says a great deal about how power is ‘willfully’ negotiated within everyday professional tech settings of neoliberal societies. My findings suggest that optimization is emerging as a technology of self among the individuals I studied, and bringing political consequences. In the first section of

Abstract:

The difficult life situations (DLS) of modern learning youth are considered. The young people who are studying represent a special socio-age group that has a specific trajectory of development, called "emerging adulthood". Its specifics is that the development tasks have a different timing, obeying the main goal – the acquisition of a profession through long training. As a result, this group is subject to high stress, is psychologically unstable and needs the support of social and psychological services. The theoretical framework included the ideas of development in emerging adulthood, researc
