Hilbert’s machine is a supertask machine inspired by Hilbert’s Hotel whose functioning leads to a contradiction that compromises the Axiom of Infinity. 1. Hilbert’s Machine In the following conceptual discussion we will make use of a theoretical device that will be referred to as Hilbert’s machine, composed of the following elements (see Figure 1): (1) An infinite tape similar to those of Turin...

the paper presents a mathematical base modeling combined to modified-winding -function-approach (mwfa) for eccentricity fault detection of a round-rotor synchronous machine. for this aim, a 6-pole machine is considered, and the machine inductances are computed by mwfa in healthy and also under eccentricity fault. a numerical discrete-time method has been proposed to machine modeling in voltage-...

background: the use of stem cells is considered as an appropriate source in cell therapy and tissue engineering. differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hipscs) to hepatocyte-like cells (hlcs) on mouse embryonic fibroblasts (mefs) feeders is confronted with several problems that hinder the clinical applications of these differentiated cells for the treatment of liver injuries. ...

Computing Machine Models To gage the computational power of a family of mechanical computers, we will use a widely known abstract computational model known as the Turing machine, defined in this section. The Turing machine. The Turing machine model formulated by Alan Turing (1937) was the first complete mathematical model of an abstract computing machine that possessed universal computing power...

this survey was done for constructing an egg sorting machine which could sort white eggs from fertilized eggs. egg sorting machine was constructed based on physiological properties of trout egg. fertilized eggs have much more elasticity than white or non-hatched eggs. so the hatched eggs will fly back if were hit to a solid surface. the machine divided to 5 parts including mechanical, electrica...

Someday, perhaps soon, we will build a machine that will be able to perform the functions of a human mind, a thinking machine. One of the many problems that must be faced in designing such a machine is the need to process large amounts of information rapidly, more rapidly than is ever likely to be possible with a conventional computer. This document describes a new type of computing engine call...

earth pressure balance tunnel boring machines (epb-tbms) are favorably applied in urban tunneling projects. despite their numerous advantages, considerable delays and high maintenance cost are the main disadvantages these machines suffer from. reliability, availability, and maintainability (ram) analysis is a practical technique that uses failure and repair dataset obtained over a reasonable ti...

a method based on machine vision system (mvs) is hereby employed to evaluate grape drying through an assessment of the fruit’s shrinkage and quality during the dehydration. experimental data as well as captured images are obtained at an air velocity of 1.4 m s-1 and different drying temperatures (50, 60, 70ºc). the results indicated the effect of temperature on the moisture content, shrinkage a...

exploiting multimodal information like acceleration and heart rate is a promising method to achieve human action recognition. a semi-supervised action recognition approach aucc (action understanding with combinational classifier) using the diversity of base classifiers to create a high-quality ensemble for multimodal human action recognition is proposed in this paper. furthermore, both labeled ...

due to their advantages, omni-directional mobile robots have found many applications especially in robotic soccer competitions. however, omni directional navigation system, omni-vision system and kicking mechanism in such mobile robots have not ever been combined. this situation brings the idea of a robot with no head direction into existence, a comprehensive omni directional mobile robot. such...
