Torsion deformable spatial beam and Costello theory are used to establish longitudinal-torsional-lateral coupled model of round balance rope. Based on Coulomb’s friction law model, the nonlinear dynamic with constraint rope is established. Meanwhile, time-varying multi-segments non–equal-length element transformation method (TMN-ETM) proposed save computation time. Then, natural frequencies, la...

Aiming at the sensitivity to initial value and long computation time spent on iteration and programming the reference trajectory in reentry trajectory optimization for hypersonic vehicles, we propose a trajectory programming algorithm, which is based on drag acceleration profile. First of all, models of motion in reentry process of vehicle are built and an independent variable is introduced for...

During earthquake buildings which are closely spaced vibrate out of phase if there is insufficient distance between two adjacent building to accommodate maximum lateral displacement, they collide with each other this phenomenon is called as pounding. Pounding leads to verse damages to structure as the responses are drastically increased in terms of base shear, absolute acceleration, impact forc...

We investigate the structure and dynamics of the M87 jet based on multi-frequency VLBI observations and MHD jet theories. Millimeter VLBI cores are considered as innermost jet emissions. The jet structure up to ∼ 105 rs is described as a parabolic streamline, indicating the lateral expansion under a confinement by the stratified ISM. Thus, the jet collimation maintains in five orders of magnitu...

Short-lasting, transient head displacements and near target fixation were used to measure the latency and early response gain of vestibularly evoked eye movements during lateral and fore-aft translations in rhesus monkeys. The latency of the horizontal eye movements elicited during lateral motion was 11.9 +/- 5.4 ms. Viewing distance-dependent behavior was seen as early as the beginning of the ...

Nowadays, the current vehicles are incorporating control systems in order to improve their stability and handling. These control systems need to know the vehicle dynamics through the variables (lateral acceleration, roll rate, roll angle, sideslip angle, etc.) that are obtained or estimated from sensors. For this goal, it is necessary to mount on vehicles not only low-cost sensors, but also low...

purpose the objectives of this study include: (1) determination of the attenuation of strike acceleration that tae kwon do sparring safety pads provide from kicks from olympic style tkd fighters, (2) the sex and weight differentiation in acceleration achieved within the thorax model with the roundhouse kicks. methods this prospective, observational study utilized 15 olympic style fighters from ...

BACKGROUND Soccer players head the ball repetitively throughout their careers; this is also a potential mechanism for a concussion. Although not all soccer headers result in a concussion, these subconcussive impacts may impart acceleration, deceleration, and rotational forces on the brain, leaving structural and functional deficits. Stronger neck musculature may reduce head-neck segment kinemat...

We have previously shown that fast phase axis orientation and primary eye position in rhesus monkeys are dynamically controlled by otolith signals during head rotations that involve a reorientation of the head relative to gravity. Because of the inherent ambiguity associated with primary otolith afferent coding of linear accelerations during head translation and tilts, a similar organization mi...
