This letter presents the design, development, and experimental assessment of a soft fluidic actuator that can enable locomotion in variety aquatic terrestrial environments. Most actuation strategies for amphibious rely on rigid, fast moving components to generate thrust tractive forces. Our prototype, comprising materials, relying simple motion planning control strategies, demonstrates two gait...

A Rectangular to Polar coordinate converter based on scaling free vectoring CORDIC is proposed in this research paper. Polar coordinates are most appropriate for the systems displaying radial symmetry. Here scaling free CORDIC algorithm operating in vectoring mode computes Polar coordinate of input vector i.e. absolute magnitude and phase angle from its rectangular coordinate. Using this algori...

We present a unified mixed radix CORDIC algorithm with carry-save arithmetic with a constant scale factoi. The pipelined architecture of the processor is determined by a unique sequence of microrotations for the two modes of operation (rotation and vectoring) in circular and hyperbolic coordinates. The combination of radix-2 and radix-4 microrotations allows us to reduce the latency and size of...

The main aim of this study is to propose efficient algorithms for image template matching on parallel machines. To our knowledge there is no a template matching algorithm that converts the template image and all candidate blocks in the source image from two-dimensions into one-dimension. This study proposes a Template Matching Vectoring Algorithm (TMVA) that reduces the amount of data to be ana...

ÐA very-high radix algorithm and implementation for circular CORDIC is presented. We first present in depth the algorithm for the vectoring mode in which the selection of the digits is performed by rounding of the control variable. To assure convergence with this kind of selection, the operands are prescaled. However, in the CORDIC algorithm, the coordinate x varies during the execution so seve...

An investigation on the robustness of a torque vectoring control based on an inverse disturbance observer architecture for a rear wheel driven vehicle with electric single wheel drives is presented within this contribution. To ensure robust control parameters, specifications for eigenvalues (Γ-stability) and bounds on weighted sensitivity and complementary sensitivity functions in frequency dom...


 Článek se zabývá problematikou využití slunečního záření jako obnovitelného zdroje energie v rámci budovy bytového domu. V současné době je aktuálním trendem využívat jakékoliv ekologické obnovitelné energie. Podstatnou část těchto zdrojů tvoří sluneční záření. Sluneční možné při návrhu využít dvěma hlavními způsoby, a to buď k výrobě elektřiny pomocí fotovoltaických (FTV) panelů nebo zí...

This research examines what ideologies Film Television (FTv) offered during the COVID-19 pandemic and how these developed in FTv using framing analysis a gender perspective approach. Results indicate that there are two hidden as follows. First, production house carries patriarchal ideology by raising themes discriminate against women through stereotypes appear story. Second, of feminism, with p...

With the expanding electrification in all sectors of transport, it is necessary to look for new efficient solutions propulsion systems use air transport. One approaches can be electric ducted fans (EDFs), especially in, but not limited to, case unmanned aerial vehicles with vertical takeoff and landing. This concept has been known several decades used very little therefore almost unexplored. op...
