Interactions of Cavitation Bubbles with Deformable Interfaces

Armand Baptiste Sieber

Cavitation is a topic that has long been of interest due to the large and growing range of applications associated with it. This is mainly because the collapse of cavitation bubbles releases a considerable amount of energy into the surrounding environment. ...

Geometric Algebra for Optimal Control With Applications in Manipulation Tasks

Sylvain Calinon, Tobias Löw

Many problems in robotics are fundamentally problems of geometry, which have led to an increased research effort in geometric methods for robotics in recent years. The results were algorithms using the various frameworks of screw theory, Lie algebra, and d ...

Screw vs. edge dislocation strengthening in body-centered-cubic high entrophy alloys and implications for guided alloy design

William Curtin, Francesco Maresca, Carolina Baruffi

Body-centered-cubic (BCC) high entropy alloys (HEAs) can show exceptionally high strength up to high temperatures. Mechanistic theories are needed to guide alloy discovery within the immense multicomponent HEA compositional space. Here, two new theories fo ...

Plucking Motions for Tea Harvesting Robots Using Probabilistic Movement Primitives

This study proposes a harvesting robot capable of plucking tea leaves without cutting them with blades. To harvest high-quality tea, it is necessary to reproduce the plucking motion of breaking the petiole of the leaf, that is, the complicated human hand m ...

Experimental studies of the equilibrium and out-of-equilibrium electronic structure of non-symmorphic topological materials

Gianmarco Gatti

Symmetry and topology are fundamental properties of nature. Mathematics provides us with a general framework to understand these concepts. On one side, symmetry describes the invariance properties of an object for specific transformations. On the other sid ...

The revelation of mechanism bifurcation is essential in the design and analysis of reconfigurable mechanisms. The first- and second-order based methods have successfully revealed the bifurcation of mechanisms. However, they fail in the novel Schatz-inspire ...

PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD2020

We develop an analytical formulation to calculate the induced resonance frequency shifts of an electrostatically actuated torsional microsensor due to an added bio-mass (E. coli). Based on a lumped-parameter model, we investigate the static and the linear ...

Vehicle Having a High Clearing Capability

Thomas Estier

The invention relates to a vehicle which includes at least four wheels and a base. Said wheels are attached in pairs at the base via connections and form a bogie consisting of a pair of wheels. Said bogies are rotatably hinged onto the base such that the p ...

Parametric Experimental Study and Design of Experiment Modelling of Sapphire Grinding

Daniel Sage

This study investigates and models the grinding process of single crystal sapphire. Five parameters: the wheel speed, the feed speed, the vertical feed, the ultrasonic assistance and the crystallographic direction were considered via a design of experiment ...

Bloch theorem with revised boundary conditions applied to glide and screw symmetric, quasi-one-dimensional structures

Florian Paul Robert Maurin

Bloch theorem is useful for analyzing wave propagation in periodic systems. It has been widely used to determine the energy bands of various translationally-periodic crystals and with the advent of nanoscale structures like nanotubes, it has been extended ...
