In this research, the numerical and experimental analysis of the carbon fiber composite lattice conical structure has been performed to assess the buckling stability of the structure before and after the lateral impact. In the experimental analysis, the carbon fiber composite lattice conical structure was constructed with the winding method and using elastic molds and metal mandrel. In or...

most previous laboratory studies of local scour at bridge abutments were performed in rectangular channels in which the distributions of flow velocity and bed shear stress were considered uniform in the transverse direction. in reality however, bridge abutments are usually located in the floodplain zone of rivers where velocity and shear stress distributions are directly affected by the lat...

This paper aims to present a stability control strategy for quadruped robot under lateral impact with the help of lateral trot. We firstly propose five necessary conditions for keeping balance. The classical four-neuron Central Pattern Generator (CPG) network with Hopf oscillators is then extended to eight-neuron network with four more triggerenabled neurons, which controls the lateral trot. Wi...

background: as a disease of motor nervous system (motor neuron  disease), amyotrophic  lateral  sclerosis (als)  has  a great  impact  on  several  aspects  of  quality  of  life (qol). generic questionnaires of qol do not address all the especial features  of als and  therefore  translation  and  validation of disease specific questionnaires such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis assessment  qu...
