based on the fact the manipulation of fine nanoclusters calls for more precise modeling, the aim of this paper is to conduct an atomistic investigation for interaction analysis of particle-substrate system for pushing and positioning purposes. in the present research, 2d molecular dynamics simulations have been used to investigate such behaviors. performing the planar simulations can provide a ...

the present study addresses the influence of iran’s post-revolution political structure on the formation of the country’s translated literature system. it examines the translated anglo-american novels pub-lished under two administrations in power after the islamic revolution: 1) the reformist administra-tion, which was a more liberal, leftist administration, seeking to improve iran’s relations ...

it has been reported previously that modulatory effects of pleasant and unpleasant slides on the human acoustic reflex are observed only if startle probes are presented to the left ear or with binaural presentation. the present study examined the effects of the left and the right ear stimulation on modulated startle reflex (as indexed by eyeblink component, measured at the right eye) employing ...

In diesem Beitrag wird das Testmanagement bei Maßnahmen zur Qualitätsverbesserung in Datenbeständen behandelt. Hierbei fließen vorwiegend Erfahrungen aus Projekten bei Erstund Rückversicherungen, Rentenversicherungsträgern und in der öffentlichen Verwaltung ein. Dies sind Bereiche, in denen die Speicherung und Verfügbarkeit der Daten aus vielen Jahrzehnten notwendig ist. Naturgemäß werden diese...

Why do Knowledge Management projects fail? The managerial literature generally attempts to answer this question rather one-dimensionally and, using functional or technical criteria, assumes that the introduction of Knowledge Management is the result of a rational decision-making process and a strategy successfully implemented in the organization. But, constructivist studies of innovation have s...

this paper aims to discuss the requirements of safe and smooth trajectory planning of transporter mobile robots to perform non-prehensile object manipulation task. in non-prehensile approach, the robot and the object must keep their grasp-less contact during manipulation task. to this end, dynamic grasp concept is employed for a box manipulation task and corresponding conditions are obtained an...

Title of dissertation: PLANNING FOR AUTOMATED OPTICAL MICROMANIPULATION OF BIOLOGICAL CELLS Sagar Chowdhury, Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 Dissertation directed by: Professor Satyandra K. Gupta Department of Mechanical Engineering Optical tweezers (OT) can be viewed as a robot that uses a highly focused laser beam for precise manipulation of biological objects and dielectric beads at micro-scale. ...

Abstract The increasing diffusion of novel digital and online sociotechnical systems for arational behavioral influence based on Artificial Intelligence (AI), such as social media, microtargeting advertising, personalized search algorithms, has brought about new ways engaging with users, collecting their data potentially influencing behavior. However, these technologies techniques have also rai...

The task of performing locomotion and manipulation simultaneously poses several scientific challenges, such as how to deal with the coupling effects between them cope unknown disturbances introduced by manipulation. This paper presents an inverse dynamics-based whole-body controller for a torque-controlled quadrupedal manipulator capable while executing tasks. Unlike existing methods that separ...
