To improve the efficiency of forest fire fighting, ride comfort is very important for firemen to maintain good physical condition. Firstly, a whole vehicle model was established with the ADAMS/view(Automatic Dynamic Analysis of Mechanical Systems) software. Next, test and simulation were performed to verify the three-dimensional model. Finally, the comparison of real vehicle test and ride comfo...

In this letter we report experimental observations on the times of adhesion of living Tokay geckos (Gekko geckos) on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) inverted surfaces. Two different geckos (male and female) and three surfaces with different root mean square (RMS) roughness (RMS=42, 618 and 931 nm) have been considered, for a total of 72 observations. The measured data are proved to be statistical...

METHODS: Ocular wavefront maps were obtained from 19 normal eyes using a ShackHartmann aberrometer. The tenth Zernike order fit was considered to be the real wavefront of the eyes. Different fittings from second to ninth Zernike orders were computed and compared with the tenth order. The ratio of the root mean square (RMS) error between the different fittings and the original wavefront was calc...

Simple expressions allowing estimation of the turbulent density perturbation from the reflectometry phase root mean square (r.m.s.) measurements and accounting for the turbulence correlation length are given. The numerical procedure for precise turbulence radial profile reconstruction for different turbulence wave number spectra and both O-mode and X-mode reflectometry is proposed. It is valida...

The animation or capture of a virtual character’s hands is a complicated task, mostly due to the high number of degrees of freedom involved. However, the movements of different digits are often correlated with each other. In this paper we use Root Mean Square (RMS) deviations as a distance metric to analyse the correlations between different degrees of freedom of hands. Using the findings of ou...

The high-degree Earth Gravitational Model EGM08 allows for geoid determination with a resolution of the order of 5'. Using this model for estimating the quasigeoid height, we estimate the global root mean square (rms) commission error to 5 and 11 cm, based on the assumptions that terrestrial gravity contributes to the model with an rms standard error of 5 mGal and correlation length 0.01◦ and 0...

In this paper we compute the root-mean-square (RMS) gain of a switched linear system when the interval between consecutive switchings is large. The algorithm proposed is based on the fact that a given constant γ provides an upper bound on the RMS gain whenever there is a separation between the stabilizing and the antistabilizing solutions to a set of γ-dependent algebraic Riccati equations. The...

In this paper, a set of Root mean square derivative based closed Newton Cotes quadrature formula (RMSDCNC) is introduced in which the derivative value is included in addition to the existing closed Newton Cotes quadrature (CNC) formula for the calculation of a definite integral in the inetrval [a, b]. These derivative value is measured by using the root mean square value. The proposed formula y...

Continuous-time additive white Gaussian noise channels with strictly time-limited and root-mean-square (RMS) bandlimited inputs are studied. RMS bandwidth is equal to the normalized second moment of the spectrum, which has proved to be a useful and analytically tractable measure of the bandwidth of strictly time-limited waveforms. The capacity of the single-user and two-user RMS-bandlimited cha...
