In this project, I aim to design and experiment with a controller for quadruped walking gait in a physics based simulation. A simplified and articulated dog model was designed with realistic dimensions. The controller is based on a finite state machine, where each state represents a target pose in the gait cycle. A simple balancing strategy was implemented.

a total of 148 groundwater samples were collected from bore wells from thirumanimuttar sub-basin for two seasons to identify major geochemical process activated to alter groundwater chemistry. the study revealed relationships with the lithology and anthropogenic process. groundwater in the region was dominated by na – ca – mg and cl and hco3 types. the (ca +mg) versus tz+ plot for both seas...

We study close to equilibrium properties of the one-dimensional Symmetric Inclusion Process (SIP) by coupling it to two particle-reservoirs at the two boundaries with slightly different chemical potentials. The boundaries introduce irreversibility and induce a weak particle current in the system. We calculate the McLennan ensemble for SIP, which corresponds to the entropy production and the fir...

In this paper, we introduce non-interest profit/loss sharing (PLS) banks into a three-period overlapping generations model. Two types, (low- and high quality) investments are assumed and capital accumulation and level of output in the steady state is considered. Then, administrative rationing is introduced to the model. It is shown that the level of capital accumulation and output in equilibriu...

What are the aggregate consequences of microeconomic lumpy decisions? This is by now a classical question. Most existing general equilibrium analyses focus, however, on one single decision at a time. In the present paper we analyze simultaneous (S,s) pricing and investment decisions. Surprisingly, equilibrium dynamics are similar to what they would be in the absence of restrictions on price or ...

It is shown that (except for two well defined cases), the necessary and sufficient condition for any spherically symmetric distribution of fluid to leave the state of equilibrium (or quasi–equilibrium), is that the Weyl tensor changes with respect to its value in the state of equilibrium (or quasi–equilibrium). ∗Postal address: Apartado 80793, Caracas 1080A, Venezuela; E-mail address: laherrera...

A theoretical study of the kinetics and mechanism of second-order intermolecular C.) cloadd it ion of 2-Ethyny1-2,3-Dihydrofurane and Phenyl Azide was performed using DFT method at 101.111 le) cl of theory with 6-31 PrEG(d,p) basis set at 298.15K. Equilibrium molecular geometries and harmonic ) ihrational frequencies ofthe reactants, transition state, and product were calculated. The kinetic an...
