Many arthropods are known to achieve dynamic stability during rapid locomotion on rough terrains despite the absence of an elaborate nervous system. While muscle viscoelasticity and its inherent friction have been thought to cause this passive absorption of energy, the role of embedded microstructures in muscles and muscle joints has not yet been investigated. Inspired by the soft and flexible ...

We discuss a framework for performing both th oretical analyse nd s tions of dusty plasma, in which the dust grains interact with each other via a dynam cally-shielded p tenti ), and plasma electrons and ions appear only through a dielectric function that is embedded in Φ(r). If the plasma ions are flowing, Φ(r) is asymmetric upstream and downstream, which has very remarkable consequences. We s...

the equilibrium moisture content is an important parameter for several post-harvesting operations for pistachio nuts, such as drying processes and storage. in this re-search the adsorption and desorption equilibrium moisture content were determined for two major varieties of iranian pistachios at 11 to 85 percent relative humidities and a con-stant temperature of 50°c. a significant hysteresis ...

In this paper, describing functions (DF) of relay with hysteresis is used for identification of systems. Describing function analysis is widely adopted in relay feedback-based identification methods because of the ease of computation involved and the general usefulness of the method. In process control systems, the noises come from measuring devices, control valves or the process itself. Dur in...

Permeability and coercivity are the most important parameters for the evaluation of soft magnetic materials. The criteria for the softest magnetic materials demand very high permeability and / or extremely low coercivity and these properties necessitate the anisotropy energy and the magnetoelastic energy tend towards zero. These unique demands are fulfilled when the FINEMET type of nanocrystall...

In this paper we investigate the behavior of higher order Galerkin expansions of the MooreGreitzer model of general transients in aeroengine compression systems. We assume steady state entrainment of the higher Fourier modes of the rotating stall cell which helps establish a framework for a simpli ed numerical analysis of the bifurcating solutions corresponding to rotating stall. For small valu...

Occurrence of Hysteresis like behavior of resistance of Sb 2 Te 3 film in heating-cooling cycle. Abstract Experimental observations of a peculiar behavior observed on heating and cooling Sb 2 Te 3 films at different heating and cooling rate are detailed. The film regained its original resistance, forming a closed loop, on the completion of the heating-cooling cycle which was reproducible for id...
