Simulating the dynamic response of trucks requires that a model be constructed and subjected to road inputs. Inclusion or omission of flexible frame effects is often based on intuition or assumption. If frame vibration is assumed to be significant, it is typically incorporated in one of two ways. Either a complex finite element model of the frame is used, or a simplified linear modal expansion ...

Kinematic metric functions, which allow us to make metric measurements such as “distance”, “length” and “angle”, are often needed in robotics. However, some commonly used metric functions are not well-defined because of their dependence upon choice of reference frame. This paper presents formal and practical conditions for kinematic metric functions to be well-defined. In order to properly anal...

Genetic parameters, genetic trends, and genetic progress of carcass traits were estimated for 12,447 Nellore individuals from different Brazilian herds. The following carcass traits were analyzed: visual body scores of conformation (CONF), precocity (PREC), and muscularity (MUSC); rump width (RW) and rump length (RL), body size (frame); and ultrasound evaluation of ribeye area (REA), backfat th...

The generalization of p-frame in Banach spaces is considered in this paper. The concepts of an $tilde{X}$-frame and a system conjugate to $tilde{X}$-frame were introduced. Analogues of the results on the existence of conjugate system were obtained. The stability of $tilde{X}$-frame having a conjugate system is studied.

Let be a locally compact non?abelian group and be a compact subgroup of also let be a ?invariant measure on the homogeneous space . In this article, we extend the linear operator as a bounded surjective linear operator for all ?spaces with . As an application of this extension, we show that each frame for determines a frame for and each frame for arises from a frame in via...

the generalization of p-frame in banach spaces is considered in this paper. the concepts of an $tilde{x}$-frame and a system conjugate to $tilde{x}$-frame were introduced. analogues of the results on the existence of conjugate system were obtained. the stability of $tilde{x}$-frame having a conjugate system is studied.

At some stage in the process of a sensorimotor transformation for a reaching movement, information about the current position of the hand and information about the location of the target must be encoded in the same frame of reference to compute the hand-to-target difference vector. Two main hypotheses have been proposed regarding this reference frame: an eye-centered and a body-centered frame. ...

Cet article s’attache à la conception du cadre élaborée par Pier Paolo Pasolini et Gina Pane dans leurs œuvres respectives. Il s’agit d’abord d’observer le rôle dispositif de projection genèse leur rapport au cadrage. Entre corps-image plan-tableau, découpages découlent d’une « pensée projective » qui s’observe également en tant que mécanisme psychique. Cette dimension autoréflexive paradigme p...

Dynamic analysis of many mechanical systems is often involved with contacts among bodies. This paper presents an efficient and general-purpose contact search algorithm for multibody dynamics in the context of the compliance contact force model. While many conventional collision detection algorithms are based on the absolute coordinate system, this paper proposes to use the relative coordinate s...
