This paper deals with the study and comparison of passive and active landing gear system of  the aircraft and dynamic responses due to runway irregularities while the aircraft is taxying. The dynamic load and vibration caused by the unevenness of runway will result in airframe fatigue, discomfort of passengers and the reduction of the pilot’s ability to control the aircraft. One of the objectiv...

OBJECTIVE To examine the difference between schizophrenia patients and normal controls on velocity and acceleration of saccade, by using the basic visually guided saccade (VGS) paradigm. METHODS Eighteen schizophrenia outpatients and fourteen normal controls participated in the VGS task. Multiple indicators, including amplitude, duration, velocity, latency, accuracy rate, acceleration, and de...

We prove generating function identities producing fast convergent series for the sequences β(2n + 1), β(2n + 2) and β(2n+3), where β is Dirichlet's beta function. In particular, we obtain a new accelerated series for Catalan's constant convergent at a geometric rate with ratio 2 −10 , which can be considered as an analog of Amdeberhan-Zeilberger's series for ζ(3).

Recently, Sidi [Sidi, A. (1995): Acceleration of convergence of (generalized) Fourier series by the d-transformation. Ann. Numer. Math. 2, 381–406] proposed a method for the convergence acceleration of certain orthogonal expansions. The present contribution shows that it is possible to extend the method proposed by Sidi to a wider class of problems by simple means. The extended method is both s...
