Now a day centrifugal pumps are vital components of industries. Certainly, one of the most important specifications of centrifugal pumps are the performance curves. In the present work, performance curves of a centrifugal pumps are obtained by Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and as an outcome, CFD results compare by practical curves. At the first step impeller and volute are designed with tw...

The aim of this study was to define a body-fixed coordinate frame for the scapula that minimises axes variability and is closely related to the clinical frame of reference. Medical images of 21 scapulae were used to quantify 14 different axes from identifiable landmarks. The plane of the blade of the scapula was defined. The orientations of the quantified axes were calculated. The angular relat...

In this paper, methods of differential geometry and properties of Lie groups are used to show that in any conservative system subjected to a non zero external load, if one examines motions in SE(3), the special Euclidean group of rigid body motions in three dimensions, the resulting 6 ́6 stiffness matrix is asymmetric in any inertial (fixed) or body-fixed reference frame. We prove that in any su...

The paper purpose is to present some aspects regarding the control system of unmanned aerial vehicle UAV, used to local observations, surveillance and monitoring interest area. The calculus methodology allows a numerical simulation of UAV evolution in bad atmospheric conditions by using nonlinear model, as well as a linear one for obtaining guidance command. The UAV model which will be presente...

Knowledge of body motion through space is necessary for spatial orientation, self-motion perception, and postural control. Yet, sensory afferent signals may not directly provide such information to the brain. Because motion detected by the vestibular end organs is encoded in a head-fixed frame of reference, a coordinate transformation is thus required to encode body motion. In this study, we in...

For more than a century, rigid-body displacements have been viewed as affine transformations described as homogeneous transformation matrices wherein the linear part is a rotation matrix. In group-theoretic terms, this classical description makes rigid-body motions a semi-direct product. The distinction between a rigid-body displacement of Euclidean space and a change in pose from one reference...

At some stage in the process of a sensorimotor transformation for a reaching movement, information about the current position of the hand and information about the location of the target must be encoded in the same frame of reference to compute the hand-to-target difference vector. Two main hypotheses have been proposed regarding this reference frame: an eye-centered and a body-centered frame. ...

The accuracy of the wearable inertia-measurement-unit (IMU)-sensor-based gesture recognition may be significantly affected by undesired changes in body-fixed frame and sensor-fixed according to change subject sensor attachment. In this study, we proposed a novel IMU-sensor-based hand-guiding method robust significant subject’s body alignment based on floating bi-directional long short-term memo...

One can simplify the triad formulations of canonical gravity by abandoning any relation to a fixed coordinate system. That means in case of the adm formalism that one can determine the momentum by direct derivation of the Lagrange-3-form w.r.t the time-derivative of the triad-1-forms, thus the momentum is most naturally a 2-form. We apply this concept to the Palatini formulation where we can cl...

This paper investigates the linearization, using perturbation methods, of the structural deformations in the nonlinear flight dynamic response of aircraft with slender, flexible wings. The starting point is the coupling of a displacement-based geometrically nonlinear flexible-body dynamics formulation with a 3D unsteady vortex lattice method. This is followed by a linearization of the structura...
