a new type of backbone robot is presented in this paper. the core idea is to use a cross shape mechanism with the principle of functioning of the scissors linkages, known as a pantograph. although this continuum arm acts quite similar to tendon-driven robot, this manipulator does not include any tendon in its structure. this design does not suffer from the weaknesses of the continuum design suc...

a fragment of histidine rich protein ii (hrp ii 215-236) was investigated by 14n and 17o electric field gradient, efg, tensor calculations using dft. this study is intended to explore the differences between 310-helix and α-helix of hrpii both in the gas phase and in solution. to achieve the aims, the 17o and 14n nqr parameters of a fragment of hrpii (215-236) for both structures are calculated...

modification of natural polymers like protein by graft co-polymerization is an important method to incorporate the desired properties into the backbone. soy protein concentrate (spc) was grafted with ethylmethacrylate (ema) using ascorbic acid /potassium persulphate as redox initiator system under pressure. different reaction parameters such as reaction time, reaction pressure, solvent amount, ...

A number of algorithms based on the evolutionary processing have been proposed forcommunication networks backbone such as Genetic Algorithm (GA). However, there has beenlittle work on the SWARM optimization algorithms such as Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO) for backbone topology design. In this paper, the performance of PSO on GA isdiscussed and a new algorithm as PSOGA is proposed for the net...
