He, Xingkang, Hashemi, Ehsan, Johansson, Karl H.
This paper studies how to control an agent in an uncertain environment over a connected sensor network, such that the agent is able to finish a sequence of tasks, namely, reaching certain sets in order. Based on multiple offline reference trajectories and constrained communication between the...

Yeganeh Saffar, David S. Nobes, Reza Sabbagh
The interaction between a capsule (bubble or droplet) and a flow structure of the continuous phase can affect the properties of the liquids, cells, and particles transferring within the capsule. Channel geometry is a common example of the flow structure influencer. Investigating the effect of...

Experimentally Determined Mechanical Properties of, and Models for, the Periodontal Ligament: Critical Review of Current Literature
Download2011
Major, Paul W., Fill, Ted S., Carey, Jason P., Toogood, Roger W.
Introduction. This review is intended to highlight and discuss discrepancies in the literature of the periodontal ligament’s (PDL) mechanical properties and the various experimental approaches used to measure them. Methods. Searches were performed on biomechanical and orthodontic publications (in...

Choudhury, M. A. A. Shoukat, Halim, Enayet B., Zuo, Ming J., Shah, Sirish L.
The vibration signal carries the signature of faults in most rotating equipments, and early fault detection is possible by analyzing the signal using different signal processing techniques. In this paper we consider a gearbox as a typical representation of a rotating or cyclo-stationary process....

Carey, Jason P., Evans, Katherine R.
A tubular braided composite bone cast for improving the efficiency and quality of bone fracture treatment is investigated. Finite element analysis was used to evaluate stress concentrations in fracture sites supported with plate and tubular casts. The stress in a plated bone is 768 % of that in a...

FEM Simulation of Non-Progressive Growth from Asymmetric Loading and Vicious Cycle Theory: Scoliosis Study Proof of Concept
Download2010
Fok, Jonathan W., Carey, Jason P., Adeeb, Samer
Scoliosis affects about 1-3% of the adolescent population, with 80% of cases being idiopathic. There is currently a lack of understanding regarding the biomechanics of scoliosis, current treatment methods can be further improved with a greater understanding of scoliosis growth patterns. The...

We present an analytical solution for buoyancy-driven “filling box” flows in axisymmetric porous media having closed bottom and side boundaries. The flow consists first and foremost of a descending, point source plume. When plume fluid reaches the (horizontal) bottom boundary, it begins to flow...

We report upon a theoretical and experimental investigation of a porous medium ‘filling box’ flow by specifically examining the details of the laminar descending plume and its outflow in a control volume having an impermeable bottom boundary and sidewalls. The plume outflow initially comprises a...

Finite plane deformations of elastic solids reinforced with fibers resistant to flexure: complete solution
Download2018-01-12
A model for the deformation of an elastic solid reinforced by embedded fibers is presented in which elastic resistance of the fibers to bending is incorporated. Within the framework of strain-gradient elasticity, we formulated the equilibrium equations and necessary boundary conditions which...
