Many elastomers change behaviors during the first several loading cycles. Also, the stress-strain curve changes when the maximum strain experienced is increased. Thus, the material should be cycled to a strain value expected in the analysis, and the load should be repe...
Future robots may need lighthearted physical interaction capabilities to connect with people in meaningful ways. To begin exploring how users perceive play
Regardless of the language used, computer programs are written in a fairly strict, methodical, logical way. Computers doexactlywhat programmers tell them to: nothing more and nothing less. Even unexpected behaviors, or bugs, are simply a manifestation of the computer doing what it wastoldto do ...
although that is not a completely useless way to do it. (Basically, neurel networks seem to me to be ``pattern recognizers'', roughly, basically using fixed-point iteration in metric spaces to hone in on a pattern or set of patterns of behaviors of inputting agents. Please note that I...
A side effect of lateral main string movement is that it softens the feel of the stringbed. If the mains begin to move less easily or not at all, the impact shock will feel larger. Again, a good candidate for string death. Given these hypotheses, we set out to find what happens to...
been categorized in a thematic survey, making it difficult to understand how far we are from optimal water management based on machine learning. This paper fills this gap by focusing on smart irrigation systems with an emphasis on machine learning. More specifically, the generic structure of a sm...
However, the categorisation of any “visitor effect” (i.e., influences of visitor presence on amphibian activity and time on display) is hard to find. The COVID-19 pandemic forced the closure of zoological organisations in the UK for several months from March 2020, with gradual re-openings...
