The free-to-roll technique is used as a tool for predicting areas of uncommanded lateral motions. Recently, the NASA/Navy/Air Force Abrupt Wing Stall Program extended the use of this technique to the transonic speed regime. Using this technique, this paper evaluates various wing configurations on the pre-production F/A-18E aircraft and the Joint Strike Fighter (F-35) aircraft. The configuration...

For deterministic magnetization switching by spin–orbit torque (SOT) in a perpendicular magnetic anisotropy system, an additional in-plane direction field is essential to break the lateral symmetry. Realizing chirality ordering system can be one approach for achieving asymmetry field-free switching. However, systematic analysis of influence chiral spin on still scarce. We investigate SOT-induce...

We consider the detector size, location, depth, background, and radio-purity required of a mid-Pacific deep-ocean instrument to accomplish the twin goals of making a definitive measurement of the electron anti-neutrino flux due to uranium and thorium decays from Earth’s mantle and core, and of testing the hypothesis for a natural nuclear reactor at the core of Earth. We take the experience with...

The effect of alkyl substituents on the C-phenyl and/or the N-Phenyl ring of benzophenylhydroxamic acid on their molecular structure and hydrogen bonding has been investigated. The predominant configuration in CHCl3 is determined by steric and electronic effects. Substituents on the C-phenyl ring favor the cis configuration, while substituents in the N-phenyl ring favor a trans c...

The characterization of human drivers’ performance is of great significance for highway design, driver state monitoring, and the development of automotive active safety systems. Many earlier studies are restricted by experimental scope, the number and diversity of human subjects, and the accuracy and extent of measured variables. In this work, driver lateral control performance on limited-acces...

A general-purpose neural model that challenges image understanding is presented in this paper. The model incorporates accumulative computation, lateral interaction and double time scale, and can be considered as biologically plausible. The model uses at global time scale t and in form of accumulative computation all the necessary mechanisms to detect movement from the grey level change at each ...

To understand the current community structure on reefs in the Dry Tortugas, we conducted specieslevel surveys of macroalgae, coral diversity, herbivorous and game fishes, urchins, and substratum composition (e.g., rugosity) in shallow (3to 5-m depth) low-relief reef and hardbottom habitats in October 2007. We had particular interest in the ecological process of herbivory inside and outside of t...

crime is the product of an interaction between the person and the setting. understanding crime has been the focus of researchers in both design and social fields for a few decades. the empirical research within the design field on the issue of crime has mainly focused on site-specific and situational features of a place. in the past decade, a considerable body of design research begun to devote...

INTRODUCTION  Endolaryngeal injection of botulinum toxin into the thyroarytenoid (TA) muscle is one of the methods for treatment of focal laryngeal dystonia. However, after treatment, there is variation in laryngeal configuration as well as the side effects reported by patients. As a consequence of the functional variability of results, it was hypothesized that botulinum toxin diffuses beyond t...
