An effective procedure based on the linear complementary problem (LCP) formulation is presented in this paper to deal with lateral contact constraints among a system of closely packed and parallel fuel rods at a
MPC has been fruitfully employed for lateral control, due to its ability to handle constraints and complex vehicle models (Besselmann & Morari, 2009; Borrelli, Falcone, Keviczky, Asgari, & Hrovat, 2005; Carvalho, Gao, Lefèvre, & Borrelli, 2014; Carvalho et al., 2015; Di Cairano et al...
Hwang5 proposed a robust nonlinear control method for lateral control of an autonomous vehicle using the barrier Lyapunov function (Barrier Lyapunov Function, Abbreviated as BLF) under the constraints of lateral offset error, which showed high robustness and stability in the face of lateral offset ...
PIX proteins are guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) that activate Rac and Cdc42, and are known to have numerous functions in various cell types. Here, we show that a PIX protein has an important function in muscle. From a genetic screen in C. ele
In the process of moving, automobiles are influenced by many factors that destabilize the trajectory of motion, including mining factors and traffic environmental conditions. When analyzing the stability of the trajectory of movement of a car should be c
We therefore assume that the interactions between the peptide and hydro- phobic lipid tails of the opposing monolayer do not create significant geometrical constraints. The boundary conditions of Eqs. (5–7) are based on the simple geometrical consideration. The account for specific chemical and ...
Kinematic constraints on the contact overclosure were approximated so that the nodes on the slave surface did not penetrate the master surface. The linear penalty method was used to determine the values of contact stress at each surface node. The coefficient of surface friction was 0.02, which is...
Based on these considerations, this study establishes an integrated quantitative approach incorporating both modeling and field sampling for assessing the lateral detrital C exchange. To verify the effectiveness of this integrated approach, we conducted a case study in an estuarine wetland dominated by na...
The novelty of this research lies in its integrated approach to optimizing both lateral constraints and anchorage configurations, providing a comprehensive solution to enhance the structural performance of GFRP-reinforced utility tunnels. 2. Finite element model 2.1. General Numerical analyses were ...
(1997) implemented the transfer function method based on modal superposition to investigate the effects of frequency-dependent fluid added mass and nonlinear wellbore constraints on the lateral response of the BHA. Gulyaev et al. (2006, 2007) derived the equations of motion of the drillstring in ...
