Adaptive control of a spring-mass hopper
(IEEE, 2011)Practical realization of model-based dynamic legged behaviors is substantially more challenging than statically stable behaviors due to their heavy dependence on second-order system dynamics. This problem is further ... -
An analytical solution to the stance dynamics of passive spring-loaded inverted pendulum with damping
(World Scientific, 2009-09)The Spring-Loaded Inverted Pendulum (SLIP) model has been established both as a very accurate descriptive tool as well as a good basis for the design and control of running robots. In particular, approximate analytic ... -
Approximate analytic solutions to non-symmetric stance trajectories of the passive Spring-Loaded Inverted Pendulum with damping
(Springer Netherlands, 2010)This paper introduces an accurate yet analytically simple approximation to the stance dynamics of the Spring-Loaded Inverted Pendulum (SLIP) model in the presence of non-negligible damping and non-symmetric stance trajectories. ... -
Circuit theoretical method for efficient finite element analysis of acoustical problems
(IEEE, 1998)In the last decade, there has been an outstanding improvement in the computer aided design tools for VLSI circuits regarding solution times and the circuit complexity. This study proposes formulating the acoustic field ... -
Collective modes in a quasi-one-dimensional, two-component electron liquid
(Pergamon Press, 1994)Under favorable conditions, a new collective mode besides the usual plasmons may exist in degenerate electron-hole liquids. We calculate the dispersion and damping of this new mode (called the acoustic plasmon mode) in a ... -
Disc brake squeal characterization through simplified test rigs
(Elsevier, 2009-11)This paper presents a review of recent investigations on brake squeal noise carried out on simplified experimental rigs. The common theme of these works is that of approaching the study of squeal noise on experimental ... -
Effects of trend strength and direction on performance and consistency in judgmental exchange rate forecasting
(Elsevier, 2013)Using real financial data, this study examines the influence of trend direction and strength on judgmental exchange rate forecasting performance and consistency. Participants generated forecasts for each of 20 series. Half ... -
Finite size effects in cooperative molecular motors
(Elsevier B.V., 2003)We have studied the ballistic and damped dynamics of finite size cooperative molecular motors. We study the effect of finite size on average quantities such as sliding velocity, as well as the statistics of fluctuations ... -
Nanomechanics using an ultra-small amplitude AFM
(Cambridge University Press, 2001)A new type of AFM is presented which allows for direct measurements of nanomechanical properties in ultra-high vacuum and liquid environments. The AFM is also capable to atomic-scale imaging of force gradients. This is ... -
On the stabilization and stability robustness against small delays of some damped wave equations
(IEEE, 1995)In this note we consider a system which can be modeled by two different one-dimensional damped wave equations in a bounded domain, both parameterized by a nonnegative damping constant. We assume that the system is fixed ... -
Plasmon dispersion and damping in double-layer electron systems
(Elsevier Science Ltd, Exeter, United Kingdom, 2000)We use dynamical local-field corrections to study the plasmon dispersion and damping in double-layer electron systems. The wave vector and frequency-dependent local-fields describing the exchange-correlation effects are ... -
Simulations of switching vibrating cantilever in atomic force microscopy
(Elsevier, 2003-01-31)We analyze the steady state tip sample interaction in atomic force microscopy by using an electrical circuit simulator. The phase shift between the cantilever excitation and tip, and the amplitude versus distance curves ...
