Landslides bring destruction to buildings, and nearby located structures mostly occur in rural areas. Such hazard commonly takes place mountainous areas Central Asia. Kazakhstan region has highly vulnerable rainfall-induced landslides South-Eastern parts due presence of many mountains. The purpose the research is demonstrate effect slope geometry on stabilityunder heavy rainfall Almaty, Kazakhs...

background and objectives: scapular stabilization and neuromuscular control provide an important parameter to characterize shoulder function during dynamic activities. many studies have confirmed the effect of the loading on scapular position and scapulohumeral rhythm. therefore, the evaluation of stabilizer muscles involvement in scapular asymmetry may assist in the development of clinical exa...

In this paper, dynamic simulation and analysis for designing the soft landing of a lunar lander is focused. The primary objective of the lunar lander is to land safely on the surface of moon, without causing the lunar lander to topple and must attenuate the landing loads to preclude damage to the lander structure. The dynamic structural model of lunar lander is modelled and simulation described...

This paper describes a simple-yet-effective for a DC-DC buck converter with voltag (VMC). We propose to use a slope adjustable generator (TWG) which provides a line feed and an additional duty cycle modulatio comparing with the conventional VMC, the p significantly improves the line and load tran This triangular wave slope regulation sc compared to digital feed-forward control sch non-linear ca...

Limit-equilibrium method (LEM) and finite element method (FEM) with strength reduction method (SRM) techniques are the most widely used analysis tools in slope stability assessment. Recently, researchers have reported that both factor of safety (FOS) values and failure surfaces obtained from LEM and FEM are generally in good agreement, except in some particular cases. In this paper, the FOS and...

Passive dynamic bipeds were first studied by McGeer (McGeer, 1990) as inspired by a bipedal toy described in (McMahon, 1984). Passive dynamic walkers can walk down a shallow slope without actuators and controllers(McGeer, 1990; 1993). McGeer has built passive walkers that exhibit steady motion using a Poincaré map, which he called as a stride function, to analyze the gaits(McGeer, 1990; 1993). ...

The slope stability analysis is routinely performed by engineers to estimate the stability of river training works, road embankments, embankment dams, excavations and retaining walls. This paper presents a new approach to build a model for the prediction of slope stability state. The support vector machine (SVM) is a new machine learning method based on statistical learning theory, which can so...

slope stability analysis is an enduring research topic in the engineering and academic sectors. accurate prediction of the factor of safety (fos) of slopes, their stability, and their performance is not an easy task. in this work, the adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) was utilized to build an estimation model for the prediction of fos. three anfis models were implemented including g...

Sungun Copper Mine is located in an area with a high level of seismic hazard. Most recently, the Ahar-Varzeqan earthquake with a magnitude of 6.2 on Richter scale occurred on August 11, 2012; at a distance about 40 kilometers away from the mine. Nevertheless, the seismic stability of the final pit wall has not been comprehensively reviewed. In this research, the southwestern wall of the final p...
