This paper presents the utilization of inertial effect in damping-based posture control of a mobile manipulator. As a measure for redundancy resolution of a mobile manipulator, an effective inertia at the end effector in the operational space is proposed and investigated. By changing the effective inertia property via null-motion, we can get the reduced inertial property of the mobile manipulat...

Large-scale deployment of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) has led to significant generation shares of variable RES in power systems worldwide. RES units, notably inverterconnected wind turbines and photovoltaics (PV) that as such do not provide rotational inertia, are effectively displacing conventional generators and their rotating machinery. The traditional assumption that grid inertia is suff...

A model for synchronization of globally coupled phase oscillators including "inertial" effects is analyzed. In such a model, both oscillator frequencies and phases evolve in time. Stationary solutions include incoherent (unsynchronized) and synchronized states of the oscillator population. Assuming a Lorentzian distribution of oscillator natural frequencies, g(Omega), both larger inertia or lar...

Expressions in terms of group-velocity time-correlation functions for the ionic mobilities of molten 6LiCl,7 LiCl and (6Li,7 Li)Cl are derived, taking the time-averaged zero momentum of inertia of each of the three groups of ions into account. MD-simulations have been performed for 6LiCl and 7 LiCl, yielding agreement between the simulated and the published experimental reduced isotope effect, ...

We study the K-theory of ring C*-algebras associated to rings of integers in global function fields with only one single infinite place. First, we compute the torsion-free part of the K-groups of these ring C*-algebras. Secondly, we show that, under a certain primeness condition, the torsion part of K-theory determines the inertia degrees at infinity of our function fields.

The Wall surgery obstruction groups have two interesting geometrically defined subgroups, consisting of the surgery obstructions between closed manifolds, and the inertial elements. We show that the inertia group In+1(π,w) and the closed manifold subgroup Cn+1(π,w) are equal in dimensions n+1 ≥ 6, for any finitely-presented group π and any orientation character w : π → Z/2. This answers a quest...
