A [2]rotaxane constructed from a per-ethylated pillar[6]arene as a wheel and a pyridinium derivative as an axle was prepared. The wheel segment of the per-ethylated pillar[6]arene moved from one station to another along the axle as a result of thermal stimuli.

Mechanically interlocked molecules such as rotaxanes and catenanes have potential as components of molecular machinery. Rotaxanes consist of a dumb-bell-shaped molecule encircled by a macrocycle that can move unhindered along the axle, trapped by bulky stoppers. Previously, rotaxanes have been made from a variety of molecules, but not from DNA. Here, we report the design, assembly and character...

A common mobile robot design consists of three ‘omniwheels’ arranged at the vertices of an equilateral triangle, with wheel axles aligned with the rays from the center of the triangle to each wheel. Omniwheels, like standard wheels, are driven by the motors in a direction perpendicular to the wheel axle, but unlike standard wheels, can slip in a direction parallel to the axle. Unlike a steered ...

In this study, stability control of a three-wheeled vehicle with two wheels on the front axle, a three-wheeled vehicle with two wheels on the rear axle, and a standard four-wheeled vehicle are compared. For vehicle dynamics control systems, the direct yaw moment control is considered as a suitable way of controlling the lateral motion of a vehicle during a severe driving maneuver. In accorda...

Abstract During the verification process of special axle (wheel) load scales for motor vehicles test using standard dynamometer method, it is necessary to first apply pressure vertically receptor through axis force sensor, which a prerequisite subsequent parameter work such as indication error. Aiming at problem low automation in lifting and lowering sensors jacks, this paper introduces device ...

This article discusses the optimization of railway transition curves, through application polynomials 9th and 11th degrees. In this work, authors use a 2-axle rail vehicle model combined with mathematically understood methods. is used to simulate movement negotiating both curve circular arc. Passenger comfort applied as criterion assess which actually best one. The 4-axle was also verify result...
