The aim of this paper is to develop a complete simulation model and study the tip-over responses of mobile cranes. The developed model takes into account all factors that could affect the overturning of truck cranes including: (I) detailed dynamics of Ibe manipulator links and the base that can potentially rock back and forth, (iI) combined vehicle suspension and ground-tire compliance, (iiI) c...

The ionosphere is the only large-scale plasma laboratory without walls that we have direct access to. Here we can study, both in situ and from the ground, basic smalland large-scale processes and fundamental physical principles that control planet Earth’s interaction with its space environment. From results obtained in systematic, repeatable experiments, where we can vary the stimulus and obser...

In the present era, there is more demand for high-rise buildings. The growing de- mand buildings brings new difficulties and comes up with safety precautions. With an increase in height of structure, its rigidity reduces, making it difficult to withstand earthquake wind effects, hence some preventative structural systems must be used. Some them are bracings, shear walls, outrig- ger belt truss ...

The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) has emerged as the prime telescope for detecting fast radio bursts (FRBs). CHIME/FRB Outriggers will be a dedicated very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) instrument consisting of outrigger telescopes at continental baselines working with CHIME and its specialized real-time transient-search backend (CHIME/FRB) to detect localize FRBs ...

We demonstrate the blind interferometric detection and localization of two fast radio bursts (FRBs) with subarcminute precision on 400 m baseline between Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) CHIME Pathfinder. In same spirit as Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), telescopes were synchronized to separate clocks, channelized voltage (herein referred baseband) data saved a d...

The results of hand transplantations in terms of both graft survival (49/52, i.e. 94.3%) and hand function recovery are very inspiring. The degree of functional recovery is similar to that achieved after hand replantation at the same level. With regard to function recovery, the most favorable level of replantation seems to be the distal third of the forearm, with 75% of hand transplantations pe...

Valaichchenai lagoon is one of the major inland fishery sources in Batticaloa. However, status & socio-economic information were lacking literature, and this study aimed to fulfil research gap. Primary data including fishing practices, species, marketing system supply chain, catch per unit effort, sustainable constraints, environmental impacts related activities, collected using questionnai...
