A NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF FLUID-STRUCTURE INTERACTION PROBLEMS BY A MESH-FREE METHOD
The solving of fluid-structure interaction problems are traditionally based on arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulations in which moving grids are used. However, for problems with large deformations, moving material int...
COUPLED TRANSVERSAL AND LONGITUDINAL VIBRATIONS OF A PLANE MECHANICAL SYSTEM WITH TWO IDENTICAL BEAMS
The paper aims to highlight some vibrations properties for a plane beams structure, where transverse vibrations are coupled with the longitudinal vibrations. In engineering practice it often happens that identical parts...
SIMULTANEOUS POSITION AND STIFFNESS DISTRIBUTION CONTROL OF ELASTIC REDUNDANT CLOSED-LOOP MECHANISM
The present paper discusses a new design of robotic manipulator having redundant closed-loop mechanism with elastic passive joints. The proposed design is aiming to be utilized for developing robots that are capable to w...
CHECKING ROBUSTNESS FOR A CONCRETE ROADWAY VIADUCT
Experts’ pursuits in constructions are connected now with the structural robustness’ notions and how to prevent the partial, full or disproportioned collapse. The question: “What is robustness?” has by far no unitary and...
A HYBRID CBR-NEURAL ADAPTATION ALGORITHM FOR HUMANOID ROBOT CONTROL BASED ON KALMAN BALL TRACKING
Controlling autonomous, humanoid robots in a dynamic, continuous, and real-time environment is a complex task, especially behavior control and robot ball tracking problems. This paper presents a hybrid Probabilistic CBR-...
