introduction: evaluation of persistent vertigo in post infarct patients is very important as the management depends on whether the cause is purely of central origin or due to associated vestibular affliction.   case report: a patient with left sided dorsolateral medullary syndrome and persistent vestibular symptoms was evaluated. vestibular test battery showed abnormal smooth pursuit, bilateral...

The control augmentation systems are very important to keep the stability and manipulability in the flight control systems. The general flight control laws are designed by static designs and dynamic fits. To improve the adaptive capability, a new method of control laws design was introduced by using dynamic optimization genetic algorithms. The control parameters were adjusted online in the flig...

Articulated liquid cargo vehicles transporting inflammable fuels and dangerous chemical products require special consideration when traveling on urban roads or cruising at highway speeds. The road safety and handling of these kinds of vehicles may be adversely affected when negotiating sharp turns or travelling on slippery roads, which may result in either lateral instabilities or complete roll...

Abstract: The governing equations of motion for a drill string considering coupling between axial, lateral and torsional vibrations are obtained using a Lagrangian approach. The result leads to a set of non-linear equations with time varying coefficients. A fully coupled model for axial, lateral, and torsional vibrations of drill strings is presented. The bit/formation interactions are assumed ...
