Based on the Biot's theory of the two-phased poroelasticity medium, a coupled model for a saturated layered ground containing an open trench and track is developed, and the effect of the open trench on reducing the vibra...

BackgroundBuilt environments shape navigation, attention, and motor control through continuous brain–body-environment coupling, yet architecture, rehabilitation, and clinical mobility practice still lack a shared quant...

We outline and interpret a recently developed theory of impedance matching or reflectionless excitation of arbitrary finite photonic structures in any dimension. The theory includes both the case of guided wave and free-...

Abstract To integrate driver experience and heterogeneous vehicle platform characteristics in a motion-planning algorithm, based on the driver-behavior-based transferable motion primitives (MPs), a general motion-plannin...

Abstract This paper presents a novel neural-fuzzy-based adaptive sliding mode automatic steering control strategy to improve the driving performance of vision-based unmanned electric vehicles with time-varying and uncert...

This is the first book specifically designed to offer the student a smooth transitionary course between elementary fluid dynamics (which gives only last-minute attention to turbulence) and the professional literature on ...
