This paper presents results of a recent experiment in fine grain Electromyographic (EMG) signal recognition. We demonstrate bioelectric flight control of 757 class simulation aircraft landing at San Francisco International Airport. The physical instrumentality of a pilot control stick is not used. A pilot closes a fist in empty air and performs control movements which are captured by a dry elec...

Drilling-induced delamination is among the major concerns of applying the fiber-reinforced composite materials in various industries. Core drill ossesses the advantage for reducing the delamination by distributing the drilling thrust force toward the drill periphery. The thrust force of core rill varying with the conditions in drilling carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) is experimentally in...

A fixed-wing aircraft that is capable of low airspeed, high angle of attack flight can serve an expanded range of mission goals. A typical propeller-driven small unmanned aircraft can be equipped with an engine that provides greater thrust than airplane weight; in post-stall states, the aircraft then depends on propeller backwash over the tail for control moment generation. Due to this dependen...

statement of problem: tongue thrust and/or its consequent swallowing pattern are amongst the parafunctional habits that have always been considered as etiological factors for dental disorders by different investigators. purpose: the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of tongue thrusting and the incidence of periodontal disorders associated with this habit among patients referre...
