When rotation is not taken into account, the measurement of the Gravitational Redshift can provide unique information about the compactness (M/R) of the star. Rotation alters the gravitational redshift rendering thereby a unique determination of the compactness parameter impossible. Nevertheless, it can be shown that by using some theoretical input, useful information on, say, the radii of comp...

Continuous non-invasive blood pressure (BP) measurement can be realized by using pulse transit time (PTT) based on electrocardiogram (ECG) and pulse wave signal. Modulated magnetic signature of blood (MMSB) is a promising approach to obtain PTT. The origin of MMSB is critical to establish the relationship between MMSB and BP. In this paper, two possible origins of MMSB, blood disturbance mechan...

In this contribution, aH∞-controller is devised for the tracking of a reference trajectory in a SISO-system. To this end, a H∞ suboptimal set-point control concept for bilinear systems is adapted and generalized for tracking purposes resorting to the overall error dynamics of the respective timevarying system. The presented controller incorporates integral action on the angular shaft velocity a...

Changing the position of the Center of Gravity (CoG) for an aerial vehicle is a challenging part in navigation, and control of such vehicles. In this paper, an all-accelerometers-based inertial measurement unit is presented, with a proposed method for on-line estimation of the position of the CoG. The accelerometers' readings are used to find and correct the vehicle's angular velocity and accel...

Generally, the attitude estimation and the measurement of the angular velocity are a requirement for the attitude control. As a result, the computational cost and the complexity of the control loop are relatively high. In the present paper, a technique for attitude stabilization is proposed; the technique proposed is designed with attitude estimation based in data fusion of an Attitude and Head...

The six-degree equations of flight in their classic form do not provide a proper physical perception due to a number of interferences. Nor do they render visible the important role of attack angles. In this study, attempts have been made to develop a complete set of 3D acceleration equations from the equations of normal and tangential acceleration αN=vωv, αt=v ̇. For this purpose, a coordinate s...

After prolonged viewing of a slowly drifting or rotating pattern under strict fixation, the pattern appears to slow down and then momentarily stop. Here we examine the relationship between such 'motion fading' and perceived angular velocity. Using several different dot patterns that generate emergent virtual contours, we demonstrate that whenever there is a difference in the perceived angular v...

in this work we solve the set of hydrodynamical equations for accretion disks in the spherical coordinates (r,θ,ϕ) to obtain the explicit structure along θ direction. we study a two-dimensional advective accretion disc in the presence of thermal conduction. we find self-similar solutions for an axisymmetric, rotating, steady, viscous-resistive disk. we show that the global structure of an advec...

BACKGROUND Variations associated with sex, age, velocity, breed and body geometry should be considered in the determination of kinematic parameters for a gait considered normal. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate kinematic patterns of forelimbs and hind limbs in clinically normal sheep from two different age groups walking at a constant velocity. The hypothesis was that the age may influen...

With the open-loop fiber optic gyro (OFOG) model, output voltage and angular velocity can effectively compensate OFOG errors. However, the model cannot reflect the characteristics of OFOG errors well when it comes to pretty large dynamic angular velocities. This paper puts forward a modeling scheme with OFOG output voltage u and temperature T as the input variables and angular velocity error Δω...
