The suspension air-gap of Maglev train needs controller for it is inherently unstable and highly nonlinear. To maintain a high quality ride, comfort safety the passengers must air-gap. During operation only in millimeters. This easily causes instability under excitation nonlinear load track tiny deformation. Additionally, with low stiffness will experience larger bending displacement result vib...

We develop a formalism that describes the bending and twisting of axoneme-like filament bundles. We obtain general formulas to determine the relative sliding between any arbitrary filaments in a bundle subjected to unconstrained deformations. Particular examples for bending, twisting, helical and toroidal shapes, and combinations of these are discussed. Resulting equations for sliding and trans...

We show that certain twisting deformations of a family of supersolvable groups are simple as Hopf algebras. These groups are direct products of two generalized dihedral groups. Examples of this construction arise in dimensions 60 and pq, for prime numbers p, q with q|p − 1. We also show that certain twisting deformation of the symmetric group is simple as a Hopf algebra. On the other hand, we p...

This paper defines a PID type yarn tension control run by a PLC system that is used to control the yarn tension below the twisting head of the novel air jet texturing and twisting (AJT) machine. In the standard sequence of the AJT, if the yarn is transported to the twisting and winding head with a low tension value, the yarn is bound to wrap around the shoulder below the twisting head and break...

We propose a new type of input for mobile devices by sensing forces applied by users to device casings. Deformation of the devices is not necessary for such “force gestures” to be detectable. Our prototype implementation augments an ultra-mobile PC (UMPC) to detect twisting and bending forces. We describe examples of interactions using these forces, employing twisting to perform application swi...

This article is devoted to the investigation of the deformation (twisting) of monoidal structures, such as the associativity constraint of the monoidal category and the monoidal structure of monoidal functor. The sets of twistings have a (non-abelian) c ohomological nature. Using this fact the maps from the sets of twistings to some cohomology groups (Hochschild cohomology of K-theory) are cons...

If V is a commutative algebraic group over a field k, O is a commutative ring that acts on V , and I is a finitely generated free O-module with a right action of the absolute Galois group of k, then there is a commutative algebraic group I ⊗O V over k, which is a twist of a power of V . These group varieties have applications to cryptography (in the cases of abelian varieties and algebraic tori...

The aim of this paper is to explain how, starting from a Goppa code C(X,G, P1, ..., Pn) and a cyclic covering π : Y → X of degree m, one can twist the initial code to another one C(X,G + Dχ, P1, ..., Pn), where Dχ is a non-principal degree 0 divisor on X associated to a character χ of Gal(Y/X), in the hope that `X(G + Dχ) > `X(G). We give, using a MAGMA program, several examples where this occu...
