We study the corner-to-corner resistance of an M × N resistor network with resistors r and s in the two spatial directions and obtain an asymptotic expansion of its exact expression for large M and N. For M = N, r = s = 1, our result is RN×N = 4 π logN + 0.077 318 + 0.266 070 N2 − 0.534 779 N4 + O ( 1 N6 ) . PACS numbers: 01.55.+b, 02.10.Yn

Considerable variability in tibial acceleration slope (AS) values, and different interpretations of injury risk based on these values, have been reported. Acceleration slope variability may be due in part to variations in the quantification methods used. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to quantify differences in tibial AS values determined using end points at various percentage ranges ...

this paper aims to discuss the requirements of safe and smooth trajectory planning of transporter mobile robots to perform non-prehensile object manipulation task. in non-prehensile approach, the robot and the object must keep their grasp-less contact during manipulation task. to this end, dynamic grasp concept is employed for a box manipulation task and corresponding conditions are obtained an...
