The purpose of the senior design project, from the course description of objectives is "To provide students a complete design experience, including the necessity to set design goals and objectives, integrate knowledge, exercise engineering judgment, plan to meet a budget and schedule, to work as a team member, and to communicate in writing." To accomplish these objectives our group, Helping Han...

We investigate the problem of spatial instability of electrically driven viscous jets with finite electrical conductivity and in the presence of either a constant or a variable applied electric field. A mathematical model, which is developed and used for the spatially growing disturbances in electrically driven jet flows, leads to a lengthy equation for the unknown growth rate and frequency of ...

The load-sensing system has for a long time been the most energy efficient hydraulic widely used mobile machines. When replacing combustion engine drive with an electric battery as source incentive using more systems arise. Some promising examples of are independent metering systems, pump controlled and open flow control systems. Before getting to deeply involved in specific design, investigati...

The action of ketamine upon spontaneously active and electrically driven Purkinje fibres of the moderator band of the pig heart has been studied using a floating microelectrode technique. Ketamine hydrochloride altered the transmembrane potential in a dose-related and reversible manner. Concentrations of 1X 10M were subthreshold whereas 5 X 10'M and 1X 10~M slowed the frequency and increased th...

Abstract n this paper, a Robust Integral of the Sign Error (RISE) feedback controller is designed for a Rigid-Link Electrically Driven (RLED) robot manipulator actuated by direct current DC motor in presence of parametric uncertainties and additive disturbances. RISE feedback with implicitly learning capability is a continuous control method based on the Lyapunov stability analysis to compensat...
