Abstract   The simple passive dynamic walker can walk down a shallow downhill slope with no external control or energy input. Nevertheless, the period-one gait stability is only possible over a very narrow range of slopes. Since the passive gaits are extremely sensitive to slope angles, it is important to use a control strategy in order to achieve a wide range of stable walking. The computed to...

There can be many reasons for engineers to place the footings near a slope such as leakage of suitable sites or architectural considerations. One of the approaches to increase the amount of bearing capacity, especially in soft soils, is adding stone columns to the soil. In this research, the behavior of a strip footing placed near a stone column reinforced clayey slope was investigated. For thi...

We consider the motion of a Brownian particle in sawtooth potential dichotomously modulated by spatially harmonic perturbation. An explicit expression for Laplace transform Green function an extremely asymmetric is obtained. With this result, within approximation small potential-energy fluctuations, integration relations average velocity performed elementary terms. The obtained analytical its h...

In this paper, we propose a successive approximation method based on fuzzy wavelet like operator to approximate the solution of linear fuzzy Fredholm integral equations of the second kind with arbitrary kernels. We give the convergence conditions and an error estimate. Also, we investigate the numerical stability of the computed values with respect to small perturbations in the first iteration....

We calculate the energy spectrum for 8B dissociation on a Pb target to all orders in the Coulomb and nuclear fields, and show that the slope of S17(E) obtained in previous analyses of Coulomb dissociation data is too steep, due to deficiencies in the conventional first-order analysis that was used. With a more complete theory that avoids the far-field approximation and includes E2, nuclear and ...

The slope of the three-isotope plot for the isotopomer fractionation by direct or nearly direct photodissociation is obtained using a perturbation theoretical analysis. This result, correct to first order in the mass difference, is the same as that for equilibrium chemical exchange reactions, a similarity unexpected a priori. A comparison is made with computational results for N2O photodissocia...

we describe how to obtain electronic transport properties of disordered graphene, including the tight binding model and nearest neighbor hopping. we present a new method for computing, electronic transport wave function and greens function of the disordered graphene. in this method, based on the small rectangular approximation, break up the potential barriers in to small parts. then using the f...

Fractional Brownian motion is known to be a realistic model for many natural rough surfaces. It is defined by means of a single parameter, the Hurst exponent, which determines the fractal characteristics of the surface. We propose a method to estimate the Hurst exponent of a fractional Brownian profile from the electromagnetic scattering data. The method is developed in the framework of three u...

in this research, the effect of the first order magnetic field on the ground-state of a centered hydrogenic donor impurity in a gaas/alas spherical quantum dot has been calculated. the perturbation method has been used within the framework of effective mass approximation for these calculations. overall, the analysis shows that a proper choice of quantum dot radius and magnetic field can signifi...
