in this paper, a new approach to modify cable tension measuring mechanism is described; furthermore, the constructed boards which amplify load cell output are introduced. this approach has some advantages including of providing feedback for motors, evaluating the robot’s ultimate load carrying capacity, improving the motor control system and estimating the vibrating deflections of the end effec...

the ip lookup process is a key bottleneck in routing due to the increase in routing table size, increasing traıc and migration to ipv6 addresses. the ip address lookup involves computation of the longest prefix matching (lpm), which existing solutions such as bsd radix tries, scale poorly when traıc in the router increases or when employed for ipv6 address lookups. in this paper, we describe a ...

beneficial management practices (bmps) are important measures for reducing agricultural non-point source (nps) pollution. however, selection of bmps for placement in a watershed requires optimizing available resources to maximize possible water quality benefits. due to its iterative nature, the optimization typically takes a long time to achieve the bmp trade-off results which is not desirable ...

in this paper, the matsumoto metric with special ricci tensor has been investigated. it is proved that, if  is ofpositive (negative) sectional curvature and f is of  -parallel ricci curvature with constant killing 1-form ,then (m,f) is a riemannian einstein space. in fact, we generalize the riemannian result established by akbar-zadeh.

this paper proposes an efficient algorithm based on memetic algorithm (ma) for a redundancy allocation problem without component mixing (rapcm) in a series-parallel system when the redundancy strategy can be chosen for individual subsystems. majority of the solution methods for the general rapcm assume that the type of a redundancy strategy for each subsystem is pre-determined and known a prior...

Several studies on photovoltaic systems focused on how it operates and energy required in operating it. Little attention is paid on its configurations, modeling of mean time to system failure, availability, cost benefit and comparisons of parallel and series–parallel designs. In this research work, four system configurations were studied. Configuration I consists of two sub-components arranged ...

a parallel algorithm for generating t-ary tree sequences in reverse b-order is presented. the algorithm generates t-ary trees by 0-1 sequences, and each 0-1 sequences is generated in constant average time o(1). the algorithm is executed on a crew sm simd model, and is adaptive and cost-optimal. prior to the discussion of the parallel algorithm a new sequential generation with o(1) average time ...
