We introduce new compliance models for LADD transmissions which reduce, by an order of magnitude, inelastic model errors of up to 18% full scale over force and position operating ranges. Elastic models introduced so far were all based on ber elasticity, which show an increase in LADD length from the inelastic length with force. We show that in experiments the opposite is true. The LADD is alway...

Mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a group of self-organized mobile nodes that are associated with comparatively low bandwidth wireless links. This paper proposes an effective queuing architecture, which supports both elastic and inelastic traffic. The packets of inelastic flows are always stored ahead of those of the elastic flows. If a link is critically loaded by the inelastic traffic, it resu...

The triple impulse input is used as a simplified version of the forward-directivity near-fault ground motion and a closed-form solution of the elastic–plastic response of a structure by this triple input is obtained. It is noteworthy that only the free-vibration appears under such triple impulse input. An almost critical excitation is defined and its response is derived. The energy approach pla...

Elastic scattering on nucleons, νN → Nν, is the dominant supernova (SN) opacity source for μ and τ neutrinos. The dominant energyand number-changing processes were thought to be νe → eν and νν̄ ↔ ee until Suzuki (1993) showed that the bremsstrahlung process νν̄NN ↔ NN was actually more important. We find that for energy exchange, the related “inelastic scattering process” νNN ↔ NNν is even more e...

The degree of information localization in elastic and inelastic scattering is examined in the context of imaging zone axis crystals in the aberration corrected STEM. We show that detector geometry is a critical factor in determining the localization, and compare a number of different geometries. Experimental core loss line traces demonstrate strong EELS localization at the titanium L-edge, even...

The double impulse input is introduced as a substitute of the fling-step near-fault ground motion and a closed-form solution of the elastic–plastic response of a structure by the “critical double impulse input” is derived. Since only the free-vibration appears under such double impulse input, the energy approach plays an important role in the derivation of the closed-form solution of a complica...
