Efficiency of numerical methods is an important problem in dynamic nonlinear analyses. It is possible to use of numerical methods such as beta-Newmark in order to investigate the structural response behavior of the dynamic systems under random sea wave loads but because of necessity to analysis the offshore systems for extensive time to fatigue study it is important to use of simple stable meth...

Embedded systems are becoming increasingly sophisticated, inter-connected, and pervasive. Unfortunately, securing these systems remains challenging. While powerful dynamic analysis tools have been developed for traditional software, the unique characteristics of embedded systems make it difficult to apply these well-known techniques; prior work has been limited either to small systems or short ...

Although the benefits of using timber in midand high-rise construction are undisputed, there are perceived shortcomings with respect to the ductility needed to provide seismic resistance and a corresponding lack of appropriate design guidance. Overcoming these perceived shortcomings will allow timber, and its wood product derivatives, to further expand into the multi-storey construction sector,...

This report proposes a dynamic noninterference analysis for sequential programs. This analysis is well-suited for the development of a monitor enforcing the absence of information flows between the secret inputs and the public outputs of a program. This implies a sound detection of information flows and a sound correction of forbidden flows during the execution. The monitor relies on a dynamic ...

Microneurographical recordings from 24 slowly adapting (SA) and 16 fast adapting (FA) cutaneous mechanoreceptor afferents were obtained in the human radial nerve. Most of the afferents innervated the hairy skin on the back of the hand. The afferents' receptive fields were subjected to controlled strains in a ramp-and-hold fashion with strain velocities from 1 to 64%.s(-1), i.e., strain velociti...

The dynamic clamp introduces artificial conductances into cells to simulate electrical coupling, votage-dependent, leak, and synaptic conductances. This review describes how the dynamic clamp has been used to address various questions in the cardiac, endocrine, and nervous systems.

Dynamic aspect-oriented programming has been widely used for the development of dynamic analyses to abstract over low-level program instrumentation. Due to particular feature requirements in different analysis domains like debugging or testing, many different aspect languages were developed from scratch or by extensive compiler or interpreter extensions. We introduce another level of abstractio...

Dynamic analysis of state-based properties is being applied to problems such as validation, intrusion detection, and program steering and reconfiguration. Dynamic analysis of such properties, however, is used rarely in practice due to its associated run-time overhead that causes multiple orders of magnitude slowdown of program execution. In this paper, we present an approach for exploiting the ...

Security in embedded systems such as smartphones requires protection of confidential data and applications. Many of security mechanisms use dynamic taint analysis techniques for tracking information flow in software. But these techniques cannot detect control flows that use conditionals to implicitly transfer information from objects to other objects. In particular, malicious applications can b...

This paper deals with the kinematic and dynamic analyses of the Orthoglide 5-axis, a five-degree-of-freedom manipulator. It is derived from two manipulators: i) the Orthoglide 3-axis; a three dof translational manipulator and ii) the Agile eye; a parallel spherical wrist. First, the kinematic and dynamic models of the Orthoglide 5-axis are developed. The geometric and inertial parameters of the...
