Multiple impacts: A state transition diagram approach

Multiple impacts: A state transition diagram approach

Impact happens when two or more bodies collide, generating very large impulsive forces in a very short period of time during which kinetic energy is first absorbed and then released after some loss. This paper introduces a state transition diagram to model a frictionless multibody collision. Each state describes a different topology of the collision characterized by the set of instantaneously a...

Simultaneous Impacts: a State Transition Diagram Approach

Impact happens when two or more bodies collide, generating very large impulsive forces in a very short period of time during which kinetic energy is first absorbed and then released after some loss.

State Transition Diagram Dependency Detection

OF THESIS STATE TRANSITION DIAGRAM DEPENDENCY DETECTION I present an algorithm that builds state transition diagrams out of event traces, in order to find causal relationships between the various events in these traces. The main application of this algorithm is high-level debugging (for situations where it is difficult or impossible to replicate a specific instance of a failure). But many other...

Active State Transition Diagram Analysis from Time Course Simulation Data: an HFPNe Approach

The key motivation of the poster is to propose a novel method to build a framework for automatically constructing a so-called active state transition diagram (ASTD) for the dynamic analysis with respect to the structural changes over time in a hybrid functional Petri net with extension (HFPNe) model. Our method incorporates time-course simulation data and temporal structural properties of the H...
