The paper presents an advanced method for solving contradictory problems of hybrid position-force control of the movement of walking robots by applying a 2D Extension Set. Using the linear and non-linear attraction point principle and the network of attraction curves, there is determined the 2D space Dependent Function generated by position and force in order to solve the robot real time contro...

The semi-Lagrangian method using the hybrid-cubic-rational interpolation function [M. Ida, Comput. Fluid Dyn. J. 10 (2001) 159] is modified to a conservative method by incorporating the concept discussed in [R. Tanaka et al., Comput. Phys. Commun. 126 (2000) 232]. In the method due to Tanaka et al., not only a physical quantity but also its integrated quantity within a computational cell are us...

the processes of cultural transformation in britain in the second half of the 20th century, the fall of the empire, immigration from former colonies and the expansion of the multiculturalism, have influenced new ways of looking at the conceptions of identity of diasporic subjects within britain. examining these experiences, diasporic novelists write about the second generation immigrants in con...

in this study, a model for estimating the nfs thermal conductivity by using a gmdh-pnn has been investigated. nfs thermal conductivity was modeled as a function of the nanoparticle size, temperature, nanoparticle volume fraction and the thermal conductivity of the base fluid and nanoparticles. for this purpose, the developed network contains 8 layers with 2 inputs in each layer and also trainin...

suspended particles have deleterious effects on human health and one of the reasons why tehran is effected is its geographically location of air pollution. one of the most important ways to reduce air pollution is to predict the concentration of pollutants. this paper proposed a hybrid method to predict the air pollution in tehran based on particulate matter less than 10 microns (pm10), and the...

In this paper, a novel hybrid method based on learning algorithmof fuzzy neural network and Newton-Cotesmethods with positive coefficient for the solution of linear Fredholm integro-differential equation of the second kindwith fuzzy initial value is presented. Here neural network isconsidered as a part of large field called neural computing orsoft computing. We propose alearning algorithm from ...

This study provides an approach to predict the springback phenomenon during post-solidification cooling in a functionally graded hybrid composite cylindrical shell with a transverse isotropic structure. Here, the material properties are given with a general parabolic power-law function. During the theoretical analysis, an appropriate transformation is introduced in the equilibrium equation, whi...

A high performance speaker-independent isolated-word hybrid speech recognizer was developed which combines Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and Radial Basis Function (RBF) neural networks. In recognition experiments using a speaker-independent E-set database, the hybrid recognizer had an error rate of 11.5% compared to 15.7% for the robust unimodal Gaussian HMM recognizer upon which the hybrid syste...

background the prevalence of peptic ulcer disease in hemodialysis patients is more than the general population. they are also more prone to complications including upper gastrointestinal bleeding. the aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of 14 days hybrid regimen with 14 days triple therapy for helicobacter pylori ( h . pylori ) eradication in hemodialysis patients. methods forty hemod...

Several hybrid rescue mutations-alleles that restore the viability of normally lethal hybrids-have been discovered in Drosophila melanogaster and its relatives. Here we analyze one of these genes, Hybrid male rescue (Hmr), asking two questions about its role in hybrid inviability. (1) Does the wild-type allele from D. melanogaster (Hmr(mel)) cause hybrid embryonic inviability? (2) Does Hmr(mel)...
