measurement of the loads exerted on the limb is a fundamental part of designing of an assistive device, which has been done by using strain gauges or a transducer. although calculation of loads applied on an orthosis coefficients achieved from calibration is a standard way, most of researchers determined the loads based on available equations. therefore, the aim of this research is finding the ...

a new base isolation method for reducing the destructive effect of earthquake is proposed in this method mushroom shaped basements are used under structures as base isolation. these basements have spherical surface and are located on foundations. basements have pinned arms that are connected. when the length of the arm is less then the radius of spherical surface, the action of them is similar ...

superconducting materials are capable of trapping extremely high magnetic fields. this property and meissner effect of superconductors causes a levitation force between bulk superconductors and a permanent magnet (pm). this levitation force has possible industrial applications such as permanent magnet guideways (pmg). because of the high price of permanent magnets, the optimization of pmg desig...

in this paper it is attempted to investigate the behavior of an inviscid flow in the meridional plane of an axial flow compressor. for this purpose the 3-d unsteady euler equations in cylindrical coordinate are averaged in tangential direction. therefore, the equations are reduced to a 2-d system. by averaging the tangential component of momentum equation, a blade force will result. axial and r...
