In this paper a numerical approach of the elasto-plastic problem with mixed hardening in the plane stress state, within the classical constitutive framework of small deformation, is proposed. In the formalized problem, the non-zero normal component of the strain (namely, the component in the direction perpendicular to the plane of stress) is considered to be compatible with the plane stress. We...

A SISO (Single Input Single Output) and a SIMO (Single Input Multiple Output) wireless transmission system operating in a Rayleigh distributed environment at the 434 MHz ISM band are investigated. The two systems are simulated using the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method, which enables the simultaneous characterization of the propagation channel and the immersed wire dipoles antennas. ...

In this work, we present a generalized compute-and-forward scheme for the single input multiple output (SIMO) channels. The proposed receiver combining compute-and-forward is well-suited to settings where a single receiver is equipped with multiple antennas. We show that combining channel outputs in a specific way makes the effective channel more suitable for decoding successive linear combinat...

Tensegrity structures are a special class of lightweight truss structures, where all truss elements are axially loaded and tensile truss elements are made of strings. This paper presents the dynamic analysis of a tensegrity structure by comparing a finite element model with an identified model obtained from experimental data. Experimental data is obtained by placing a three stage tensegrity str...

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Zn(C(8)H(7)N(3))(3)](2)[SiMo(12)O(40)]·6H(2)O, consists of a complex [Zn(C(8)H(7)N(3))(3)](2+) cation, half of a Keggin-type [SiMo(12)O(40)](4-) heteropolyanion and three uncoordinated water mol-ecules. The Zn(2+) cation is surrounded in a distorted octa-hedral coordination by six N atoms from three chelating 3-(2-pyrid-yl)pyrazole ligands. In the het...

Robot audition systems require capabilities for sound source separation and the recognition of separated sounds, since we hear a mixture of sounds in our daily lives, especially mixed of speech. We report a robot audition system with a pair of omni-directional microphones embedded in a humanoid that recognizes two simultaneous talkers. It first separates the sound sources by Independent Compone...

This paper establishes abstract results, which extend those of Potier-Ferry and Sobolevskĭı, on global existence and stability of solutions to quasilinear equations near an equilibrium point whose spectrum lies in the strict left half plane. The result may be regarded as a version of the linearization principle for quasilinear systems in a context where the main difficulty is to show that near ...

We derive the fading number of a general (not necessarily Gaussian) single-input multiple-output (SIMO) fading channel with memory, where the transmitter and receiver—while fully cognizant of the probability law governing the fading process—have no access to the fading realization. It is demonstrated that the fading number is achieved by IID circularly-symmetric inputs of log squared-magnitude ...

Recently, the concept of MIMO (multiple-inputmultiple-output) radars has drawn considerable attention. In traditional SIMO (single-input-multiple-output) radar, the transmitters emit coherent waveforms to form a focused beam. In MIMO radar, the transmitters emit orthogonal (or incoherent) waveforms to increase the spatial resolution. These waveforms also affect the range and Doppler resolution ...

In this paper, we have measured channel capacity for various communication system such as SISO, SIMO, MIMO with different modulation technique like BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM and 64-QAM. In the proposed algorithm the Bit Error Rate (BER) is less compared to conventional algorithm. The proposed algorithm is suitable for fast speed traffic that is when the speed of the mobile is very high. We have measur...
