regarding increasing importance of tank wagons and efficiency in fluids transportation, their usage is increasing every day. thus paying attention to their designs just as dynamic analysis of wagons during travelling time is vitally important. in this task, sloshing coefficient as prominent parameter in tank wagons designing has been investigated. to ease of efficient design, theses parameters ...

in this study the operations of melting of au15ag40 nanoalloy have been studied using the molecular dynamic simulations through the gupta multiparticle potential and the nonergodicity of simulations is eliminated by the multiple histogram method. the melting characteristics are determined by the analysis of variations in the potential energy. the calculations indicate that the melting of au15ag...

Simulating stiff materials in applications where deformations are either not significant or else can safely be ignored is a fundamental task across fields. Rigid body modeling has thus long remained critical tool and is, by far, the most popular simulation strategy currently employed for solids. At same time, rigid methods continue to pose number of well known challenges trade-offs including in...

the ability to perform rolling contact fatigue (rcf) experiments in wheel–rail material is provided by a new small–scale test rig, manifesting the actual dynamic behaviour of the railway system. in this paper, a multi-body dynamics (mbd) model is proposed, simulating the vibration behaviour of the prescribed rig. the new testing facility is modelled using a three-dimensional model of the vehicl...

A Space Free-Flying Robot (SFFR) includes an actuated base equipped with one or more manipulators to perform on-orbit missions. Distinct from fixed-based manipulators, the spacecraft (base) of a SFFR responds to dynamic reaction forces due to manipulator motions. In order to control such a system, it is essential to consider the dynamic coupling between the manipulators and the base. Explicit d...

in this paper, the important formation control problem of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots is investigated via a leader-follower strategy. to this end, the dynamics model of the considered wheeled mobile robot is derived using lagrange equations of motion. then, using adams multi-body simulation software, the obtained dynamics of the wheeled system in matlab software is verified. after that, ...

this article presents an implementation of a reinforcement learning (rl) method for a snake like robot navigation. the paper starts with developing kinematics and dynamics model of a snake robot in serpentine locomotion followed by performing simulation and finishes with actual experimentation. first, gibbs-appell's method is used to obtain the robot dynamics. the robot is also modeled in simme...
