The symmetry of floating drops is considered. Under conditions that the free boundary is flat it is shown that all three component interfaces are symmetric about a vertical line.

experimental tests were performed to study the seismic behavior and performance ofmodified steel chevron braced frame systems, which incorporate a vertical slotted connection(vsc) detail between the top of the braces and the floor beam above. the vsc detail isintended to prevent vertical load transfer to the beam and limit brace forces to thecompressive resistance of the members. full-scale qua...

A new pinhole camera system has been installed on Spear 2 to measure its vertical emittance. The hard X-rays from a bending magnet source point are imaged on a phosphor screen through a 30 um x 25 um pinhole aperture. The resolution of the system for 8 keV photons is limited to 31.2 um by Fraunhoffer diffraction and is much smaller than the 340 um FWHM vertical beam size corresponding to 0.9% v...

A half-car model with four DOF was established to simulate the system. On the basis of this model, Selfadapt Parameters Fuzzy-PID control method of the active suspension system is described. In such a model, vehicle speed, vehicle body vertical acceleration, suspension dynamic deflection, the body vertical acceleration and suspension dynamic deflection integrated feedback were used respectively...

Network Slicing allows to simultaneously support the specific needs of vertical industries with a diverse range of networking and computing requirements. Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) has been defined to deploy multiple network services on a common infrastructure. We extend the NFV concept to vertical services, i.e. services implemented on top of network services and providing the appl...

Three experiments investigated the frame of reference used in memory to represent vertical spatial layouts perceivable from a single viewpoint. We tested for the selection of three different reference systems: the body orientation, the visual vertical of the surrounding room, and the direction of gravity. Participants learned and retrieved differently colored objects on a vertical board with bo...
