A double-axis flexure hinges combined with elliptical and parabolic curve is presented in this paper. The design equations for its compliance computation have been deduced by application of Castigliano’s displacement theorem after the anlysis of the stucture,which were analyzed by the use of the software MATLAB, and comfirm the validity of the model with finite element analysis software ANSYS.

Previous studies have found a processing difference between unaccusative sentences and unergative sentences. They argued that the difference is derived from a syntactic difference, i.e. an unaccusative sentence involves movement whereas an unergative sentence does not. In this study, we are going to show that those studies are uninterpretable due to uncontrolled stimuli and confounds in the mat...

Performing a finite element analysis (FEA) on a hyperelastic material is difficult due to nonlinearity, large deformation, and material instability. This paper provides a brief review of the hyperelastic theory and discusses several important issues that should be addressed when using ANSYS. Analysis on a fatigue specimen is used as an example of one of our product development challenges upon w...

Algebraic approach of differential one-forms provides simple theoretical framework for several typical problems of nonlinear control theory that makes it useful for educational purposes. Additional assistance is provided by Mathematica functions, developed by us and made available by creating a web-based application using web-Mathematica. These symbolic computation tools provide solutions for s...

technical efficiency of different sectors is important for economic policy making purposes. this study considering regions as independent decision-making units, measures technical efficiency of industrial sector for every region of the country and then examines its determinant factors.generally influential factors of efficiency are classified in two main groups. first group includes the basic e...
