Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponse of SAI Afferents May Play a Role in the Perception of Velvet Hand IllusionAbdullah Chami, Masahiro Ohka, Yuji Kawabe, Hanafiah Bin YussofProblem statement: We revealed the reason behind a haptic illusion called the Velvet Hand Illusion (VHI) by FEM analysis. In VHI, a person rubs his/her hands together on both sides of wires strung through a frame and produces the sensation of rubbing a very smooth and soft surface like velvet. We focus on VHI to determine the specifications of an … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 6,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPullout Characterizations of Various Steel Fibers Embedded in Very High-Strength ConcreteSameer Hamoush, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Toney Cummins, Brian ZornigProblem statement: There is a real need for a fundamental understanding of bond and bond mechanisms in the newly developed Very-High-Strength-Concrete (VHSC) materials. The interfacial steel fiber/VHSC matrix bond tests are needed to characterize VHSC and to aid in the development of analytical models that describe bond behavior of this new material. Approach: This research investigated bond-slip characteristics of four … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating the Behavior of Steel Composite Shear Wall with Corrugated Plate under Lateral LoadSeyedeh Asma MirfazliJirdehiThe steel shear wall system has been considered as a structural system over the past few decades. This issue deals with wind and earthquake lateral forces due to its hardness, loading capacity and plasticity. This type of the system, with the use of external hardness resulting from the geometric shape of the waves, has better buckling strength than a hardened … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 14 Jul 2018 · 7,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Brief Introduction to the Bird Strike Numerical SimulationAniello Riccio, Roberta Cristiano, Salvatore SaputoBird impacts can be extremely critical events for the air transport safety. Since aircraft structures have become more and more complex components, the numerical prediction of the damage onset and evolution induced by a bird impact has become a very challenging task. The aim of this work is to provide a brief overview of the numerical techniques adopted for the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2016 · 8,673 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProblems of Ultra-High Energy Cosmic RaysAnna V. UrysonCosmic rays are energetic particles coming to the Earth from space. They bombard the atmosphere producing cascades of particles that spread over a large area when they reach the ground. Cosmic ray energies vary in the wide band from about 108 eV up to few 1020 eV. It is established that most particles with energies of ~ (108-109) eV come … …Space Science International, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 6 Dec 2014 · 13,865 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAsymptotic Stability of Unicycle-Like Robots: The Bessel’s ControllerAndrés G. GarcíaAsymptotic stability of unicycle-like robots proved to be involved due to Brockett's condition. By using a smooth, time-invariant controller constructed out of Bessel’s functions, in this paper unicycle-like robots are uniformly-exponentially stabilized to the origin. The pure feedback controller obtained provides closed-form trajectories with the possibility of a simple and feasible (hardware) non-linear observer construction from posture angle measurements solely. … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Jan 2020 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRarefied Gas Flow Modeling inside Rotating Circular CylinderN. PourmahmoudIn this study a rarefied gas flow inside a rotating circular cylinder by means of direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is investigated. A rarefied gas is supposed to be contained in a cylindrical domain, bonded by a rotational cylinder with smooth and diffuse-reflection surface. The top and bottom ends of domain is assumed to be speculary-reflecting. Special attention is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
