The rotational inertia of an animal can be expected to influence directly its ability to execute rapid turning maneuvers. We hypothesized that a ninefold increase in rotational inertia would reduce maximum turning performance to one-ninth of control values. To test this prediction, we increased rotational inertia about the vertical axis of six human subjects and measured their ability to turn d...

In this paper, relative orbit and attitude adaptive controllers are integrated to perform roto-translational maneuvers for CubeSats equipped with a Drag Maneuvering Device (DMD). The DMD enables the host CubeSat modulation of aerodynamic forces/torques gravity gradient torque. Adaptive independent orbital revisited account traslational-attitude coupling while compensating uncertainty in paramet...

In this work, we propose a novel controller based on simple adaptive methodology and model predictive control (MPC) to generate track trajectories of spacecraft in the vicinity asteroids. The formulation is using as feedback MPC feed-forward controller. system model, asteroid shape inertia are assumed be unknown, with exception estimated total mass angular velocity asteroid. used input only com...

Installing force-controlled end-effectors on the end of industrial robots has become mainstream method for robot force control. Additionally, during polishing process, contact stability an important impact quality. However, due to difference between structure and end-effector, in operation, direct control will have transition from noncontact tool workpiece. Although impedance can solve this pro...

One of the most important challenges in the development of urban railways network is the effects of railway vibrations on human and adjacent structures. Although various investigations into the sources of railway vibrations have been conducted, very few research works have been reported on the influences of track geometry parameters on the level of vibrations. This is addressed in this resea...
