A New Passive Controller for a Hydraulic Human Power Amplifier

A new, intrinsically passive controller for hydraulic human power amplifier is presented. The hydraulic human power amplifier is a tool that amplifies (or attenuates) the force that the human exerts on it. The control objective is to cause the system to behave like a passive mechanical tool when interacting with the human and with the work environment with a specified power scaling factor. Alth...

Optimal Power Management for a Hydraulic Hybrid Delivery Truck

Hydraulic hybrid propulsion and energy storage components demonstrate characteristics that are very different from their electric counterparts, thus requiring unique control strategies. This paper presents a methodology for developing a power management strategy tailored specifically to a parallel Hydraulic Hybrid Vehicle (HHV) configured for a medium-size delivery truck. The Hydraulic Hybrid V...

In Press , QJEP Making disjunctions exclusive

This work examines how people interpret the sentential connective “or”, which can be viewed either inclusively (A or B or both) or exclusively (A or B but not both). Following up on prior work concerning quantifiers (Noveck, 2001; Noveck & Posada, 2003; Bott & Noveck, 2004) which shows that the common pragmatic interpretation of “some,” some but not all, is conveyed as part of an effortful step...

Modifications in a French pressure cell-laboratory press system.

Two removable steel plates, a shortened valve handle, lengthened outlet nozzle, and an added test tube holder facilitate use of a cell disruption system.
