the main purpose of this study is measuring and comparing of peanut harvesting loss in manual and mechanical methods in addition to economic analysis of them. hence, a field was selected in astaneh-ashrafiyeh and divided to three different plots. two plots were applied to measure mechanical harvesting loss and third one was applied for manual harvesting loss. according to test results, the lowe...

This paper investigated the moisture absorption, mechanical behavior and the dielectric performance of hybrid and non-hybrid polymeric composites. Hand lay-up technique was used for processing carbon; glass reinforced polyester resin composites (non-hybrid) and carbon-glass/polyester hybrid composites with various fiber configurations. The maximum resistance of water absorption was obtained for...

In this note we investigate open-loop control of underactuated mechanical systems and draw connections between averaging and controllability theory. Two sets of results are presented: averaging under high-amplitude high-frequency forcing, and series expansions for the evolution of a forced mechanical system starting at rest.
