This paper proposes a composite controller (CC) to improve the accuracy of trajectory tracking and suppress vibration two-link underwater flexible manipulators. A dynamic model manipulators considering hydrodynamic force is established by combining Lagrange equation Morison formula. Then, divided into subsystem rigid subsystem, decomposed control strategy presented for two subsystems. In partic...

A prediction method, based on the Morison equation as well Froude-Krylov formula, is presented to simulate loads acting columns and caissons of semi-submersible platform induced by Internal Solitary Wave (ISW) respectively. Combined with experimental results, empirical formulas drag inertia coefficients in can be determined a function Keulegan–Carpenter (KC) number, Reynolds number (Re) upper l...

In the analysis of flexible flapping wings of insects, the aerodynamic outcome depends on the combined structural dynamics and unsteady fluid physics. Because the wing shape and hence the resulting effective angle of attack are a priori unknown, predicting aerodynamic performance is challenging. Here, we show that a coupled aerodynamics/structural dynamics model can be established for hovering,...

The present paper deals with comparative studies on hydrodynamic behaviour of Single and two hinged articulated towers in Random sea. dynamic is investigated under long crested Uni directional random sea the wave force calculations are performed using Modified Morison equation. A visual based C + program developed to evaluate response by taking into account non linearities like time variation s...

The present study is a topographical analysis of thalamo-cortical relations as revealed by alterations in the electrocorticogram induced by localized thalamic stimulation. The work has been based upon the assumption that the complex spontaneous pattern of the cortex represents an aggregation of various sorts of activity, some of which might have separate anatomical substrates capable of more or...
