BACKGROUND Static balancing assessment is often complemented with dynamic balancing tasks. Numerous dynamic balancing assessment methods have been developed in recent decades with their corresponding balancing devices and tasks. OBJECTIVE The aim of this systematic literature review is to identify and categorize existing objective methods of standing dynamic balancing ability assessment with ...

A positive integer n is called a balancing number if 1 + 2 + · · · + (n − 1) = (n + 1) + (n + 2) + · · · + (n + r) for some positive integer r. Several authors investigated balancing numbers and their various generalizations. The goal of this paper is to survey some interesting properties and results on balancing, cobalancing and all types of generalized balancing numbers.

Ligament balancing affects many of the postoperative criteria for a successful knee replacement. A balanced knee contributes to improved alignment and stability. Ligament balancing helps reduce wear and loosening of the joint. A patient with a balanced knee is more likely to have increased range of motion and proprioception, and decreased pain. All these factors help minimize the need for revis...

Distributed simulations require partitioning mechanisms to operate, and the best partitioning algorithms try to load-balance the partitions. Dynamic load-balancing, i.e. re-partitioning simulation environments at run-time, becomes essential when the load in the partitions change. In decentralised distributed simulation the information needed to dynamically load-balance seems difficult to collec...

This paper presents a simple load balancing algorithm and its probabilistic analysis. Unlike most of the previous load balancing algorithms, this algorithm maintains locality. We show that the cost of this load balancing algorithm is small for practical situations and discuss some interesting applications for data remapping. Index Terms Data locality, irregularity, load balancing, mapping, prob...

Battery systems are affected by many factors, a key one being the cells unbalancing. Without the balancing system, the individual cell voltages will differ over time, battery pack capacity will decrease quickly. That will result in the failure of the total battery system. Thus cell balancing acts an important role on the battery life preserving. Different cell balancing methodologies have been ...

there are some machineries and equipments as well as relatively fix amount of human resources involved in any production process. in many cases, by observing operational method of a process, one may see that some of these machineries are not working, but on the other hand, other equipments are continuously working, and many parts are set in front of them, waiting to be set up over machines to c...

Distributed systems have been an active research area in computer science for the last decade, task allocation and load balancing have been a major issue associated with such systems. The load-balancing problem, attempts to compute the assignment with smallest possible makespan (i.e. the completion time at the maximum loaded computing node). Load balancing problem is a NP hard problem. This pap...
