Partial cubes: structures, characterizations, and constructions
Partial cubes are isometric subgraphs of hypercubes. Structures on a graph defined by means of semicubes, and Djoković’s and Winkler’s relations play an important role in the theory of partial cubes. These structures are employed in the paper to characterize bipartite graphs and partial cubes of arbitrary dimension. New characterizations are established and new proofs of some known results are ...
متن کاملCharacterizations and constructions of h-local domains
H-local domains arise in a variety of moduleand ideal-theoretic applications. In the first half of the paper, we survey some of these applications, and collect a number of characterizations and examples of h-local domains. In the second half, we show how diverse examples of h-local Prüfer domains arise as overrings of Noetherian domains and polynomial rings in finitely many variables.
متن کاملAggregation Functions Constructions, Characterizations, and Functional Equations
Ordinal sums have been introduced in many different contexts, e.g., for posets, semigroups, t-norms, copulas, aggregation operators, or quite recently for hoops. In this contribution, we focus on ordinal sums of t-norms acting on some bounded lattice which is not necessarily a chain or an ordinal sum of posets. Necessary and sufficient conditions are provided for an ordinal sum operation yieldi...
متن کاملIntroducing Pleated Pneumatic Artificial Muscles for the Actuation of Legged Robots : a One-dimensional Setup
This paper reports on the use of a new actuator, called Pleated Pneumatic Artificial Muscle, in a one dimensional set-up, it is build as a footless leg with only the knee powered by a pair of Pleated Pneumatic Artificial Muscles. The main goal of this study is the evaluation of the adaptable passive behaviour of these Artificial Muscles in a leg, which can be exploited for an energy efficient w...
متن کاملArtificial muscles based on conducting polymers
Natural muscles have mechanical properties that conventional actuators do not possess. These natural machines show large strain, moderate stress, high efficiency and stability, fast response time, high power/weight ratio, long lifetime, etc. In the last years a great interest has arisen to develop materials that mimic natural mechanisms. Conducting polymers have an array of potential applicatio...
