Pitch then power: limitations to acceleration in quadrupeds
Rapid acceleration and deceleration are vital for survival in many predator and prey animals and are important attributes of animal and human athletes. Adaptations for acceleration and deceleration are therefore likely to experience strong selective pressures--both natural and artificial. Here, we explore the mechanical and physiological constraints to acceleration. We examined two elite athlet...
متن کاملThe physiological limitations of performance during acceleration.
A PILOT'S TOLERANCE to eyeballs-down acceleration can be readily assessed from the g stress levels at which he loses vision and then consciousness. With g stress applied at right angles to the spinal axis (eyeballs in or eyeballs out), however, the cardiovascular impairment is so much less severe that there is no comparably dramatic end point to mark tolerance. A crude evaluation of tolerance t...

چکیده این پایان نامه به بررسی اثر سیم پیچ مغناطیسی و کاوه یِ خوشه گر با بسامد رادیویی بر هاله و بیرونگراییِ باریکه هایِ پیوسته و خوشه ایِ ذرات باردار در شتابدهنده های خطیِ یونی، پروتونی با جریان بالا می پردازد و راه حل هایی برای بهینه نگهداشتن این کمیتها ارایه می دهد. بیرونگرایی یکی از کمیتهای اساسی باریکه هایِ ذرات باردار در شتابدهنده ها است که تاثیر قابل توجهی بر قیمت، هزینه و کاراییِ هر شتابدهند...
Gradient Limitations in Room Temperature and Superconducting Acceleration Structures
Accelerating gradient is a key parameter of the accelerating structure in large linac facilities, like future Linear Collider. In room temperature accelerating structures the gradient is limited mostly by breakdown phenomena, caused by high surface electric fields or pulse surface heating. High power processing is a necessary procedure to clean surface and improve the gradient. In the best test...
متن کاملThe Power of Hybrid Acceleration
This paper addresses the problem of computing symbolically the set of reachable configurations of a linear hybrid automaton. A solution proposed in earlier work consists in exploring the reachable configurations using an acceleration operator for computing the iterated effect of selected control cycles. Unfortunately, this method imposes a periodicity requirement on the data transformations lab...
