Consider an effective Hamiltonian torus action T ×M → M on a topologically twisted, generalized complex manifold M of dimension 2n. We prove that the rank(T ) ≤ n − 2 and that the topological twisting survives Hamiltonian reduction. We then construct a large new class of such actions satisfying rank(T ) = n − 2, using a surgery procedure on toric manifolds.

Twisting is an important process to form a continuous yarn from short fibres and to determine the structure and properties of the resultant yarn. This paper proposes a new theoretical model of yarn dynamics in a generalized twisting system, which deals with two important phenomena simultaneously, that is, twist generation and twist propagation. Equations of yarn motion are established and the b...

applications of thermoplastic composites have developed extensively. the thermoplastic composites in comparison with the thermoset composites have many advantages. thermoplastic composites can be melted and remolded many times. the duration of manufacturing process of these composites is short, producing very tough material, and the welding ability and multiple recyclings are their further adva...

Problem statement: Sensitization of robot hand is still remaining as crucial issue since most of robot hand systems nowadays are only capable to grasp a predefined specific object. It is still difficult for robot hand system to realize human-like tactile sensation. Some common problems in robot hand system are low accuracy sensing device, sensors are not robust enough for long time work and hea...
