Coupling metrics play an important role in determining the quality of the software. In this paper we studied the different types of coupling i.e. Static Coupling and the Dynamic Coupling. We also studied how these metrics perform under different environments and we calculated the mean and the standard deviation for the results produced and graphically represented them. We also described the bas...

We clarify the nature of dynamic coupling in plasmonic resonators and determine the dynamic coupling coefficient using a simple analytic model. We show that plasmonic resonators, such as subwavelength holes in a metal film which can be treated as bound charge oscillators, couple to each other through the retarded interaction of oscillating screened charges. Our dynamic coupling model offers, fo...

In recent years, researchers have been dedicated to the study of underactuated manipulators which have more joints than control actuators. In previous works, one always assumes that there is enough dynamic coupling between the active and the passive joints of the manipulator, for it to be possible to control the position of the passive joints via the dynamic coupling. In this work, the authors ...

the ability to perform rolling contact fatigue (rcf) experiments in wheel–rail material is provided by a new small–scale test rig, manifesting the actual dynamic behaviour of the railway system. in this paper, a multi-body dynamics (mbd) model is proposed, simulating the vibration behaviour of the prescribed rig. the new testing facility is modelled using a three-dimensional model of the vehicl...

A Space Free-Flying Robot (SFFR) includes an actuated base equipped with one or more manipulators to perform on-orbit missions. Distinct from fixed-based manipulators, the spacecraft (base) of a SFFR responds to dynamic reaction forces due to manipulator motions. In order to control such a system, it is essential to consider the dynamic coupling between the manipulators and the base. Explicit d...
