Calculating Center of Mass in an Unbounded 2D Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
!! We study the behavior of simple, 2D, selforganizing primitives that interact and move in an unbounded environment to create aggregated shapes. !! Each primitive is represented by a disk and a unit point mass. In order to compare the aggregated shape produced by the primitives to other shapes, the centers of mass of the two shapes must be aligned. !! We present an algorithm for calculating the center of mass (COM) for a set of point masses that are distributed in an unbounded 2D environment. ! The algorithm calculates the centroid for each coordinate component separately by forming two “orthogonal” tubes, calculating a center-of-mass in 3D for each tube and then projecting the 3D COM back onto the tubes, in order to produce the 2D COM of the points.

Bifurcation of limit cycles from a quadratic reversible center with the unbounded elliptic separatrix
The paper is concerned with the bifurcation of limit cycles in general quadratic perturbations of a quadratic reversible and non-Hamiltonian system, whose period annulus is bounded by an elliptic separatrix related to a singularity at infinity in the poincar'{e} disk. Attention goes to the number of limit cycles produced by the period annulus under perturbations. By using the appropriate Picard...
متن کاملAn improvement in RTM method to image steep dip petroleum bearing structures and its superiority to other methods
In this paper, first the limitations of the ray-based method and the one-way wave-field extrapolation migration (WEM) in imaging steeply dipping structures are discussed by some examples. Then a new method of the reverse time migration (RTM), used in imaging such complex structures is presented. The proposed method uses a new wave-field extrapolator called the Leapfrog-Rapid Expansion Method (L...

Objective: The center of mass is dependent on the distribution of mass and the properties of the length of the upper parts of the body to the lower parts of the body. This plays a fundamental role in the body's balance, which can be measured in various ways. The purpose of this study was to provide a model for determining the center of mass in girls and boys aged 6 to 12 years. Methods: Partic...
متن کاملA New Method for Ranking Fuzzy Numbers By the Center Of Mass
In this paper , we present the first moment has been defined based on the center of mass from the fuzzy number, then with calculating area between the center of mass, a new ranking method has been proposed. At last we present some numerical examples to illustrate our proposed method, then comparing with distance index ranking method.
متن کاملUltimate Tendon Stress in CFRP Strengthened Unbounded HSC Post-Tensioned Continuous I-Beams
The use of unbounded tendons is common in prestressed concrete structures and evaluation of the stress increase in unbonded tendons at ultimate flexural strength of such structure has posed a great challenge over the years. Based on the bending experiment for two-span continuous post-tension beams with unbounded tendons and externally applied CFRP sheets, the monitoring of the stress increment ...
